    Georgia Billiard Academy gets spot on CBS Morning Show

    I was supposed to go here for a few sessions earlier this year, but I had multiple emergencies back to back and never got to get up there. From the conversations I had, Chris seemed like a great guy eager to help. I would have love to have made it up there. Hopefully in the future! Keep up...

    Help with 8 Ball Rules

    I play APA, and it was explained to me that you have to contact and make your ball first to stay at the table. I may have been misinformed, but that is what I was told. It would be interesting to see what the actual ruling on this was.

    Question from a newbie

    I am 21 years old and new(er) to pool and pool equipment. My second cue ever was a Dale Perry eBay which I liked way more than my first Viking retailed at $320. I have seen/heard people bashing DP for selling his cues on eBay and depreciating the value of their cue they bought in the 80's or...

    Predator Z2 question

    Thank you! I do like the everest, but I have never tried a moori. I figured since my guy does stock them I would give them a shot. I just wanted to get at least close to the original hit.

    Predator Z2 question

    What is the equivalent of the stock/standard tip for a Predator Z2? My guy's shop here doesn't stock Everest tips and I want the same hit an Everest would provide. Moori Medium maybe? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Which Breaker?

    I have a Lucasi Big Beulah 2 and I am very pleased with it. It was not what I had originally wanted, so I settled. It ended up growing on me and I don't think I would trade it fir another break cue at the moment. I had originally wanted the poison jump/break but it was out of stock. One of my...

    Getting scuff off cue

    As far as if it's a "decent cue" it's a predator ikon 3. Not a super expensive custom, but it was definitely the most expensive cue I have owned ( I'm only 21). After hearing the above poster mention it could just be the clear top coat, I have hopes that is what it is. I will take pics in morning.

    Getting scuff off cue

    Ok guys and gals there is a new issue. Unbeknownst to me, my daughter was trying to help daddy clean his cue when I discover she was actually using the gritty side of a shaft cleaner. Now the part she was "cleaning" seems as if it's a lighter color than the rest of the cue. I'm guessing the...

    Getting scuff off cue

    I will post a pic as soon as possible. I will try the eraser, thats a clever idea. They are actually 3 light scuffs. Because of the ebony wood they are very noticeable. They just won't come out for me.

    Stance and posture issues

    Hello all. Long time reader first time poster. I was told that I don't get down on the ball enough in my stance. On top of that I always seem to pop my head up before completing my stroke. Any suggestions on how to break the habit?
