One handed, as well. Wow. And what’s with the opponent standing there, hovering.

He lost 10-12 to Amar Kang on a 9-footer here: https://www.youtube.com/live/vYaFQ7akC-M?si=Urc2GQdRwn9QHALA He made some crazy short jumps with his break cue. Boy can play.

You sure? Doesn’t look like you could turn them to fit between the points to me.

It’s trivial to rank shafts by deflection amount, and many folks have done it and published results. It’s done by finding the shaft’s natural pivot point by using a short, firm, straight-in shot with right and left BHE at various bridge lengths. Takes about 3-4 minutes. That PP length (from CB...

Coincidentally, the WHO declared a global pandemic in March 2020. Let’s hope history doesn’t completely repeat itself.

Nope. UV light shows Simonis and serial number on top. They’ve already sent me a free replacement cloth.

Did you send them good pics?

Fun fact: Matthew McConaughey got his first movie role in part because of his love for golf. From this article: ----- When appearing on The Howard Stern Show, McConaughey once discussed how he got the role that would alter the course of the rest of his life. It sounds like it was a moment of...

Great video! Won't do much to convince parents to promote pool to their kids, unfortunately. Also: song is Nine Ball, but they played Eight Ball. Minor nit.

Sure, I'll report. But just looking at the results, I think it's safe to say that the area I shaved looks a hell of a lot closer to what Simonis cloth should look like.

It worked! Thanks @boogieman! I spent around 20 seconds on a 4" diameter section of my cloth, and here are pics of the result. The two cues point to the left and right boundaries of the area I shaved, and you can see the fuzz that got shaved in the razor's clear plastic reservoir. It's going to...

Thanks to a suggestion from @boogieman in the smaller Simonis Fuzz thread, after I reported that I tried to shave my Simonis fuzz with a Gillette Mach 3 razor with no effect, I ordered this $13 fabric pile shaver on Amazon, and received it this morning. Well, it works! I spent around 20 seconds...

Makes you wonder how many hundreds or thousands of tables are out there right now with defective Simonis.

eh, most ebay reviews are positive unless the buyer got screwed somehow, because buyers also want good reviews. They’re all verified buyers, so likely legit. Regarding your proposal, no bet 😂

Yes, that’s the next step if you want to pursue it.

No, it shouldn’t be that fuzzy. Lots of good info in this thread if you want to try to get them to send a free replacement. First step is UV light to confirm it’s Simonis, on right side up, and get the serial number.

I read a bunch, they were are just positive, not funny, so maybe I’m not reading what you did. And the seller’s avatar says “Fun Gal” so not sure it’s a guy. Browsed through the seller’s other listings, pretty interesting stuff… like a TAD cue for $18K with great pics but zero text...

Well, he thinks it’s funny to knock an opponent’s premium chalk into a pocket so they can’t find it, so I wouldn’t be surprised.
