    Can a player hit down ?

    While on this subject, why is a double hit a fowl? What I'm wondering is, what advantage does double hitting the cue ball give a player that would need a double hit to be classified as a fowl?

    Why are pool balls round?

    Rambo in front of a pool table

    I'm assuming, since he portrayed a U.S war hero, that the knife is made in the U.S., he doesn't say. Or what kind of blade steel was used.
