Be sure to use a respirator and long sleeve shirt. Cyano vapors can cause acute respiratory issues and skin allergy. Also, chronic issues such as asthma, reproduction and even cancer. Cyano is a great place product. And It seems safe in small doses, as used around the house in normal uses. But...

Making any sounds when hitting? Was it making a lot of clanking before it broke? There is a lot of gaps in there. Also wonder what the joint was attached glued to. Looked like foam of some sort.

A 20-11 score doesn't accurately reflect Corey's Play I dodn't think Corey has played as bad as the score reflects. However, the smallest mistake has almost always meant a Busty runout. I also think Corey played more aggressively at the end of last night and made a good run to close out. If he...

Thanks for the video, it is very helpful. I also tried the textbook stance. And just like you, I had lots of neck problems. I also never found my vision center alignment. But I was able to shoot center-ball straighter, especially drawing back long distances in a perfectly straight full-ball...

Another interesting thread!! I agree, the camera parallax is causing the stroke to look crooked. But, if you would like to check the straightness of your stoke, try this. You can place use a laser level to place direct straight line between cueball and object ball from one corner pocket to the...

Just an idea... I don't know exactly what your build is. But, I would think that a full size pool ball would be awkward for using as a cane handle, at least from the end. How about using a pool ball pocket marker. It is already cut in half and you can more easily drill and tap from the flat...

Good Stuff

Thanks for sharing. I'm looking forward to getting mine in the next couple days. I've played bumper-less most of my life, so I don't mind tings or sounds. But, I really wanted a pro-taper. Conical shafts feel to loose to me. Also glad that it has a white ferrule to help with sighting.

White Tape Back in the day, many bar cues came with black ferrules and people would simply put white tape on the ferrule area to help with sighting. It was another solution. Also, I have often played with cues without a bumper (which deaden's the feedback or vibration of the cue). This also...

Sorry......duplicate

I believe that the court struck down a federal law that was about gambling in casinos. However, the rationale is that the federal government doesn't have power to stop gambling. But it (being Congress) can regulate gambling. So, if Congress fails to regulate gambling, the individual states...

Thanks Pat, thanks for saving the US Open from extinction!

Jackpot Hearn just may hit the jackpot soon! Hearn and pool could see a major boom if Supreme Court opens the door to a blanket ok for USA gambling on amateur and pro sports. We should soon hear about the future of PASPA. I suppose Congress could pass new legislation to try to stop it. I'm...

I disagree with you that it is a long ways off. I don't think it will ever happened. ...But if it ever did... I'm the type that buys a lottery ticket every year or so, just to have a dream of What if? Because I know that it's never going to happen! Lol

First, I am sure you were looking for a sponsor, probably not exactly the same thing that being part of Olympics games. It is not technically a "sponsor." But, to this question. Every country would have to invest in advancing their top players within their country. Largely, this would mean...

Outside of the US, I don't believe there is the same image to overcome. Yes, gambling has always been associated with the game all over the world. But, even the views of gambling in a protestant-formed America are different than other parts of the world. Not to mention how views change over...

First, there are many different systems using the rails to kick and bank. So it's not just one simple explanation to put it all together. Also, learning a system is just the beginning. Then you must learn to develop your "feel." Every table is different.

My vote would be the US Olympic Committee. This would mean that pool has been completely added event into the Olympic Games. It would instantly transform pool into a legitimate world premier sport. Internationally, countries investments into developing their players into the best would raise...

I saw a funny TD Ameritrade commercial (link below) today. It was on Bloomberg news and I had to look it up to watch it again. What is really interesting to me, is how true the commercial is. I believe that the message that both trading stocks and playing pool is too complicated for many...
