    Rack It Up or Pack It Up?

    I had been trying to draft this without making more NPR content. Basically, too much is taking the attention of people's extra cash. Cellphone costs, TV/broadband expenses, etc take up much of the money that could otherwise be spent in a poolhall. It certainly would help to own the building...

    Southwest cues how much and how long through the years?

    No one who waited and/or paid for one will give a fair answer. They are too invested Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Southwest cues how much and how long through the years?

    I wouldn't be able to wait either. It is a very interesting business model. I bet just requiring a $300 deposit to get or stay on the list would dramatically reduce that wait time. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Tor Lowry - Entire Zero-X Collection on Sale!

    I have found his stuff to be pretty insightful. I think there is some older stuff on YouTube. Watch and see if it connects. It took a while for me, but thinking about being on the correct side of the pocket line greatly improved my position play. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    5/16-18 joint mystery.

    I have a lot of 14s as well, there are some that screw on looser than others. One thing to experience is screwing a mezz united joint shaft on a 14 butt. You will feel how nice that joint is. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    5/16-18 joint mystery.

    I've had a radial pin that didn't accept every shaft I had. It's just one of the ways this industry Fs with you. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Best pro tourney to spectate (north america)?

    Turning Stone is always a good one. Great access to players and the January tournament gets a better draw than the August/September one. Jayson Shaw is always there and Fedor has often made it too. SVB used to but might not have left on good terms. It is also completely free, though you are in a...

    APA handicap bumped during the middle of a regional tournament

    It definitely can happen. One thing to know is if you won, you would still be in the 3 bracket, just playing as a 4, even in Vegas. A friend did that, qualified and bumped. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Are Springfield Pool Halls Doing OK?

    It makes for a nice distraction from legitimate issues like terrible uninsured drivers causing damage and financial loss, stressing schools that are not prepared to handle a surge in population, particularly one that isn't English speaking, presumably other crime, petty or serious. But let's...

    CF infused Torrified shafts.

    I did realize they do say carbon is in the kielwood, just isn't pie-spliced like the maple. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    CF infused Torrified shafts.

    It sounds like the Fuze shafts from Lucasi, but their maple one clearly states there being carbon inside (assuming like a Mezz Ex Pro) while their kielwood does not state any carbon. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    I guess the new CueTec is more than just a CF butt...

    A few companies would join. I'm not seeing innovation here. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Anyone play in TAP League?

    Is it true that any team would go to the BCA national? These TAP national teams won an 8-16 team bracket to even play there, plus teams might have not made the regional bracket. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Anyone play in TAP League?

    The 8ball nationals were held in Biloxi, MS in November. They put teams in 4 team groups. You play round robin teams in your group. The total wins will place you in the 32 team bracket of decreasing prizes. The top bracket was 8k for first and 4k for second place, paying 500 to the 9-16th. The...

    Anyone play in TAP League?

    Maybe it is. The thing to remember is a 7 could be a pretty wide range. Like a guy could have the numbers that would make them a 10, if that were possible. My 7 is at the low end of 7. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

    Turning Stone

    I usually go anyway. I think last August was poorly attended by top players. Still, great venue with incredible access, even if there are only 3-5 big names. Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk
