    What are some good quality playing jerseys?

    https://onboardsportswear.us/ https://jamupapparel.com/collections/men-jersey I have had a good experience ordering from both of the above. Athletic style cloth and fit. Both have polo collars I believe.

    Your favorite pin & why?

    I think you should be very skeptical. Because one cue is production radial with 12.9 revo and one cue is custom with 3/8-10 12.9 revo. Both cues are similar in weight. If I take ten shots with each in a row then 3/8-10 hit is different in my head. But if you handed me one blind folded it...

    Your favorite pin & why?

    3/8 10 modified or standard radial I am certain I can't tell blind folded which is which. I am also crazy enough to say they feel different when shooting the same shot one after the other a few times.

    8 or 9ft table for this game room?

    Id go for it. Get the weighted shorty cue (trouble shooter? I think that is what its called) and let it fly because the percentage of time you are parked on that rail and have to make that exact shot is going to be minimal. Unless you are like 6 foot 5. I play on a 9-ball team with a 6 foot...

    Karl Sloezen is giving lessons in NJ/NY

    I take lessons from Karl bi-weekly. He will evaluate your shot making then correct your fundamental flaws. This will take a few months if you put in a lot of practice outside of lessons if you are a beginner like me. He will then move onto advanced shot making with position or strategy with...

    Predator REVO shaft

    I shoot with a Doug Beasley 4 point (DB) 3/8 10 and a revo 12.9. I also have radial 12.4 and 12.9 on a production predator sneaky pete. The fit on my DB is near perfect you can feel the joint but you cannot see any lip without magnification. I am guessing like .0001-.0003. The fit on my...

    Ever Gone Up A Tip Size?

    I went up from a 12.4 to 12.9 revo. I feel like it made my tip placement a little bit easier as it looks bigger and was easier to zero in on "one tip left" if that makes any sense. I felt like I was sometimes off with the smaller tip on my amounts. Probably just mental but I feel more...

    Predator Pure chalk

    My first foray into expensive chalk was Pyro, lasted 12 months and I bought a piece of V10 which I am currently using. I believe I prefer the Pyro. I seem to lay green little turds on my pool coaches blue 860 when I am having a lesson that get me the stink eye from him. Since I am nearly...
