    Aiming for power draw

    The condition of your tip, and the cloth makes a huge difference in draw. I recently had my tip re-shaped to make it more concaved......from a "nickle" to a "dime", i guess, and draw takes half the effort as it did prior. If the cloth is old, nasty, chalk covered bar table cloth, big draw shots...

    Wood Shaft v CF

    they have been used successfully for hundreds of years. If you take care of them (dont leave it in freezing or Hot cars etc), these are lifetime long products. Of course, I am not a pro. Earl strickland once said he hates crowds watching him because it is too many people breathing near the...

    Jump Cue Recommendations

    I have the pechauer and i have either made a good hit, or made the ball every time (probably used it 8 times or so) The thing is almost too easy to use.

    What's the deal with pool players? A sport for angry and shitty people it seems

    I have seen more drama and arguments on my league this season than the past ten years combined. It legit seems like something happened and changed people.

    Which ball was hit first?

    i did 0.25 speed and used the play pause button to do frame by frame. Too close to call without some real good camera equipment. If a decision had to be made based on what i can see with this method, id say a simultaneous hit, no foul.

    Taom Chalk

    it is clean, and it wears very slowly if you properly "brush" the chalk on, and dont bore a hole into it like novices do. You can chalk your tip with it right under the light and see nothing fall. If you do the same with master, it will be raining dust. My teammate also uses it, because he has a...

    So Skyler got drug tested immediately after losing to Oi???

    Better tread carefully. That could open one up to some legal liability.

    So Skyler got drug tested immediately after losing to Oi???

    I assume if a player is on one of these many common medications due to doctors orders, it is just fine? Does the player need a doctors note?

    Pechauer Black Ice break shaft

    i ordered the whole setup, Naked cue with black ice shaft. I had them put a black linen wrap on it (normally comes without). Ordered in 19oz, as they said i can just remove weight bolt if i want to drop it down. I talked to steve on the phone, extremely helpful guy. I just got their jump cue a...

    Pechauer Black Ice break shaft

    thinking about buying one of these. I have been using a cheapy Viper amazon break cue for years, and can use my tax money to get something nicer. Any additional input on this shaft? Should i get the whole cue(what im leaning toward), or just the shaft to put onto my viper? What weight is...

    What a tool!!!

    I get that rules are rules, but holy crap, can you not be a gentleman, use your brain, and acknowledge that blatantly obvious combo she played? And this was how he ended up winning the match, since it went hill hill because of this. Savannah handled it well. She is going to be pure class just...

    Cell phone junkies

    yah, unless you have to tell them "its your shot!", every single time, and spend half of the time at the table waiting for them to put it down.

    Cell phone junkies

    i I have a friend like this that I have known for over a decade. I just will not play with him anymore. Every time its his shot, his head is down buried in his phone and he needs to be told its his shot. I dont deal with that. Its unfortunate, because hes a good shot and we are a good matchup...

    Seal a CF Shaft

    you can clean it with alcohol, and slicken it up with pledge furniture polish. You said you are wearing a glove to keep your hands clean from the shaft? If the shaft is leaving any residue on your hands then you got ripped off and bought a questionable product from an unreputable source. I have...

    dave, at 2:48, do you always find the midpoint, and then extend that line *INTO* the pocket?

    Taom Chalk

    try it. Its great. Just get one of the magnetic holders for it as well. The first time you lose it, or accidentally leave on the table and some novice uses it and bores a hole into it, you'll be pissed.
