    Billiards Shoes?

    I swear that I've seen a picture of shoes, maybe from the 1920's?, that were made specifically for billiards. Basically wingtips that had a flap of leather that went over the toe, that you'd rest the butt of your cue on. Anyone have a picture of something like this?

    New Raffle Site Poll

    I think it should be on bklynjava's site, it makes no sense to do it on a board where you can't edit posts (no offense LP).

    Cue Sale Advice?

    Do you have the photos still? Do you edit the photos in any way?

    How much does the tip affect the hit of a shaft?

    I've got a Wizard M on my shaft, which is a Jon Spitz shaft with 20 grpi, and I'm wondering if changing to a Kamui S would change the hit very much? I don't have a lot of experience with different tips on the same shaft, so I thought I would ask.

    $25 for a piece of chalk is ridiculous!

    I sent another email to John at Kamui, this time inquiring about the possibility of a financial opportunity. John's response... This got me thinking further, and so I replied with the following... I eagerly await John's response.

    $25 for a piece of chalk is ridiculous!

    I'm glad you ask. Someone mentioning that by weight, it is more expensive than silver, got me thinking. So I sent an email off to Kamui. The reply: The part about it being "total different compound than what we know as chalk" makes me wonder if it really is some sort of makeup being...

    APA in Fulton NY A MUST READ STORY

    Don't get too worked up about what the APA cheerleaders say, I'm sure the majority of them are either LOs themselves or are probably best friends of an LO. Those who have played in the APA and have had to deal with the constant BS know where you're coming from.

    Fargo Summer Shootout Quality stream now

    Not to beat a dead horse, but I too think that this is a very high quality stream. Good camera and lighting, I'm enjoying watching this even though I don't know any of the players.

    TVmike has proven untrustworthy

    You don't f*cking deserve it. You're like a drug addict who's scamming anyone and everyone so he can get his next fix, making up all sorts of excuses as to why you need extra money and how nothing is your fault. I wouldn't be surprised if that's actually what lead to your financial downfall.

    TVmike has proven untrustworthy

    Why not? You screwed up, you're the one who put the wrong address on the package, you're the one who didn't insure the package, and you're the one who lost the tracking number. Why should he have to give you anything??? If anything, you should've offered those to him for free in the first...

    Sterling wave 2x3

    I've been able to find records from 2006 and 2007 of cues being imported from Yinoyi Enterprises Inc. out of the port of Kaohsiung and being sent to KC Industries. Not parts, but actual cue sticks. The contact person is a Mr. Jim Shao, who also lives at the listed business address, which...

    Your greatest Shark Tactics

    Got a guy in my room who does lots of little things, sometimes pretty blatantly, to try and get the edge. He'll get behind the ball you're shooting at, or stand at the pocket, and I've even seen him dip the tip of his stick down towards wherever you're shooting. Another one is he'll start...

    WTB: Old viking bumper.

    I think that this bumper is off of an old Viking from either the late 70'S or early 80's. It's for a guy who shoots at my hall, and needs to take it out, but is afraid it will crumble once he does. Anybody know where I can pick one up?
