I'll fess,...... imma rare-bird. I'm anpi,...... ambie,..... anmpi,..... I can use both hands. I can do archery,firearms ,fist-fighting, bowling, and pool with both hands. For handwriting and throwing a baseball, I am left-handed. (I throw a BB like a girl right-handed.) :eek: I am cross...

Some great answers here! I kept coming back to ONE concept when thinking about "Who" would be the one I would take lessons from. YMMV (stands for:"Your mileage may vary,"). Picking an Instructor could be seen like picking a carpenter/plumber/auto mechanic. They could do well for your friend...

Wow! This sucks. I only knew of him, but I always liked his demeanor while playing. That vid in an earlier post of him keeping Corey Duell in his chair was fan-tastic! Kid Delicious in top form. Condolences to his family. Keep the memories alive in your hearts & mind;.

Hi Hank, I am not a regular here on the forum, but I do try to proffer some kind of insight into the game. The link reminded me of a time we had a table in our rec room. Dad would have a few friends over for a few beers to play. Of course Men being MEN; they would always try to out-do each...

Was practicing alone on my home table and began to reminisce about my Dad and his antics playing on our home table with friends. Beer drinking, bragging, the friendly insults,...but they all "Danced" around the table. This reminded me of those times..... Straight pool

I played on a team that had an insult hurling bobble-head. Was some old guy ,and you really had to listen to hear him. I Mulligan'd the ball b-4 the 8-ball in one of my matches and the guys were swatting each other's hands trying to be first to tap his head and make it sound off. Their fighting...

oh pah-leeeeeeese! :rolleyes: This thread makes me feel like I am back at the Bar watchin' all the girls flipping their hair to get attention. ☺️☺️ I'm 62, Diabetic and have chronic Arthritis. There are days I practically curse my knees and back. Lately my shoulders have been "achy" and I...

ummmm,... get out your tape measure. The Baseball field I played in HS was 90 ft. That was standard in the H. Schools we played, It is also standard softball field size. I didn't play in college or minors ,so it may be 120 as in MLB. I was going to bring up in a later post the outfield distances...

wow, A LOT to opine here,.... RKC,; good to see you again here on the forum. I respect you for your knowledge and expertise, your personna aside.(Ppl are different; some can't accept that). AS for RKC's question, I like to equate pool to baseball. In baseball, we have leagues. Little league...

I had an opp accidently, (uh-huh) nudge a ball about 1/2 inch while shooting his target ball. He moved it back voluntarily before I could say a word ,and apologized for moving it. I noticed he didn't place it exactly where it originally was, but said nothing. Two shots later, his CB came around...

lol. Someone here reads books.

Does it matter if itsa blue dot, a red dot, or a measles ball ?? just askin'. ;) 🙃

I thought it was 43,........... or was it 34 ?? 🤔

Where do you see 9 sets? Website says 1st to win 5 sets with each set a race to 5. Format has changed. Last year I believe it was a race to 9.

That is how I feel about my 1st Mezz cue. :)

Nope / Not enuff! I paid < $500 for my sneaky and I wouldn't part with it for twice the price! It takes a long time to find "what you want," IF you ever find it. Not worth the money for my sneaky, or my favorite custom players.

"You throw that cue-ball at me Jason, and I'll Dot your eye with this chalk."

Here is a PSA -- Ignore the bickering and just go practice. Rail shot practice This guy is easy to understand and explains everything well. I have no association to him except that I subbed his channel.

COF is a proportional measurement. Think about the tires on your car and an asphalt highway. Tires wear,.... now make the rubber harder on your tires. The COF changes. Change the asphalt highway to sand. The COF changes again. To talk about 2 pool balls made of the same material,(ie...

"skid from throw" is practically moot in such a slow speed and short distance. You can likely measure it in nanometers. As far as co-efficient of friction,... we are talking 2 objects of like(same) material. COF comes into play from rigorous friction of like or dissimilar materials. More a...
