    carom billiards with larger balls?

    I swore many years ago I went to a pool hall and saw carom tables with balls that were huge. Was I dreaming? I've played snooker, regular pool games, and cushion games and I know the sizes of those balls, but I swear I remember seeing carom billiards played with balls significantly bigger...

    any online billiard trainers like this?

    I'm casually trying to teach some people how to play pool and/or get better. I really want to get people to work on their setting, but it's hard. FargoBilliard's cue control videos were great, but I recently came across this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AENJxqR0g48&feature=fvw#t=2m10s Now...

    Radial joint protectors thread question

    I got some radial joint protectors and although they didn't screw in tight, they still screwed in. I didn't think much of it as it still covered the joint. Recently I ran into someone that had radial joint protectors very similar to mine except the threading was different. I took a picture...

    Can only play 8 ball!

    So I've got some mental block / problem where I can only play 8 ball well. Every other game I fail to make the shots, sets, and break outs that I easily make in 8 ball. I really like playing other games, I just suck at them, I don't know what is wrong. I've even made sure my preshot routine...

    How often do you replace your tip?

    Once you have found a tip you like, how often do you replace it? Also include tip brand, hardness, and how much you play, if you cut part of it off to begin with, if you break with it, etc.

    Eason Cues service

    I'm making this thread because I've seen a LOT of bad things about this guy on this forum. I recently bought a butt that was in less than tip top shape (and I knew it beforehand) but came in worse than I expected, possibly due to the very cold weather here. I was compensated generously for it...

    finish and roll question

    I tried to clean my butt with 99% rubbing alcohol and it had one of those finishes that come off. So the finish is now uneven with fingerprints and off in some places. Is there a temporary fix or way for me to hand-refinish this as I have some important games in the upcoming weeks? What...

    took off the finish of my new used cue..

    So I finally received the used butt of my cue after a grueling hoop session with USPS, since Maryland had a big snowstorm today. First thing I do is my usual cue cleaning, using 99% rubbing alcohol. This works fine on my Fury, but now I believe recall reading somewhere that it may be bad for...

    For inexpensive forward balance purposes, I just wanted to know what standard joint pin type weighed the most: uni loc, 5/16x14, 5/16x18, 3/8x10, or radial the weights would include the same material (stainless steel) and ALSO the corresponding insert into the shaft (I believe the 3/8 and...

    best cheap cue / butt for LD shaft

    So eventually I want to try out an OB-2 Shaft and my current cue doesn't have the right pin. So I am looking for a cheap cue or even just a butt with a standard pin (preferably radial) so I can use a LD shaft. I would prefer a wrap on it, and for it to look decent (no horrible colors, plain...
