    The best video of a Carbon Fiber shafts deflection testing with a robot arm

    I thought the same thing. I would have expected that the center ball hits would have hit the same point for all four shots. Clearly not the case. Something was off, invalidating the data on spin shots.

    7 ball

    The problem for most C and D players, myself included, is that they (we) have the belief that every new rack, every turn at the table is an opportunity to run out, in spite of a history of not being able to go beyond 5 ball runs in 100 tries. Like Brian at FX Billiards says in one of his...

    There is a First Time for Everything-a surprise with my recent cue purchase Here

    Apologies for the thread hijack. Someone gave me the plain Adam. It had a dark green wrap, which needed to be redone. I asked my local cue maker, Ed Petersen of EAP Cues, to rewrap it in black to go with the EAP CF shaft he made for it. I use it as my player. Plastic joint. I scored the...

    I came here hoping this was to share info on curing an enlarged prostate. 😝

    What would you do?

    His case was close enough to the table that in your (or anyone’s) normal step back to view and step into the shot it could be knocked over? Sorry, too bad. I don’t lean my case anywhere. I hang it on the back of a chair. If you are feeling especially generous you can offer 50% of replacement...

    SVB featured on 60 min (dropped 10 hrs ago)

    Elevate the sport by highlighting that it’s not about the seedy side of it? No. Why didn’t this segment highlight the difficulty of the game and demonstrate the skill required to succeed? Describe the insidious dichotomy of what seems like a simple goal vs the reality of how difficult it...

    Am I crazy or do side pockets on 7 ft tables play bigger for scratches than 9 ft?

    Is it possible the cushions play differently and it has little to do with table dimensions?

    Let's talk Fargo

    Do you think it's possible that Efren is so creative because he put so much effort in multiple games? In particular, I would imagine strategy and patience come from 1p, and sheer outlandish cue ball control, seeing what is possible, comes from 3c. Sorta like how I'm sure drivers like AJ Foyt...

    Power break..

    Perhaps the cue ball is a rubber superball painted white to look like a cue ball. LOL

    You get what you pay for!

    I can see sloppy work. But what I don’t know, and I was respectfully asking, are things like nose height. How TF am I supposed to know what the specs should be? I’m disappointed you demurred on an opportunity to share your knowledge with someone respectfully asking, opting instead to point...

    You get what you pay for!

    I've asked him questions via DM and he's provided me his cell phone and has taken time to help me out via phone calls, so I appreciate that he has been very helpful asking nothing in return from me.

    I understand the question but I don't understand why you're asking it. All I wanted to know is what issues you see with the photos posted since I am not looking at it with your trained eye of an experienced professional. (Is that deferential enough, RKC?)

    For the ignorant of us, please explain. I see some but likely not all of the issues. Thanks.

    A mental game

    The first time I tried the link it presented a blank screen. I copied the link and tried it again and it worked. However, the video offered zero insight except to say that putting in golf is mental.

    how are ya'll doing in league ?

    Played Wednesday night, won 8-ball 5-1 in a 5-4 race (me SL6 v SL5). Won 9-ball 16-4 (me SL5 v SL7). Noteworthy to me because I was up 28-27, and I got to my 38 goal via my first-ever 9-ball BNR! I was happy and confident going into my BCA 14.1 match yesterday. That was a 75-50 race, and I...
