    How to play this shot:

    I am in no way condoning this as the way to get position on the nine. I am just saying Nick Serdula is correct that it is playable. To draw back to that side rail south of the side pocket is easier and also gives an easy out. Most can not do either so I agree with most, play the high...

    How to play this shot:

    I also disagree You may not be capable or believe it capable, but you are wrong. Not only have I done it, but would put money on it. When I was young I occasionally shot stroke shots that Earl and Efren would have been proud of. This one is not that difficult if you have a super stroke...

    How to play this shot:

    In Defense of Nick By looking at the fist post picture the angle is not that great. It would take a stroke most do not have but is very possible to draw back without hitting the rail. Nick describes the stroke well. As a young man 50 years ago I would bet on the shot and take on challengers...

    How to play this shot:

    Shot advice Any left may cause the first shot to be missed and is not necessary. Looks like a natural with a tip or so low and medium speed. The problem with most is that they attempt straight in position and either miss the shot or the shape. A little angle is fine for the last ball. There...

    Thanks Sean I gave my daughter the same cue. She does not want to play with it because both shafts and the forearm were signed by Paul Huebler. It is never played condition. I am more interested in the shafts but if the price was right would not mind buying it. What would be a fair price as...

    The Hustlers need your help!!!!!!!!!!

    I could handle the ridiculous dialogue and the less than professional looking pool play and still enjoy the show if only the game was edited differently. A close up shot of each ball falling or rattling in the pocket is not necessary. I tried to watch an episode yesterday, but could not...

    How long have you been playing and..

    I go back to about 14 years old in 1961: Just starting high school. Stayed my first year in a dormitory with four very old 10 foot tables in the basement rec room. No one knew anything about the game so I quickly became the best of the worst bunch of pool players ever. My Father traded for a...

    Dream cue

    Custom cues from any Maker could be a crapshoot I have owned many cues starting back in the early 60s. Very few were special. A few had a feel of an extension of my body with an amazing feedback. At the top was my Cochran cue. At at advanced age when my skills had diminished, with no...

    Any Joe Mathesius cue fans?

    He is from Spokane Wa. I have one that has been my main player for about four years. Very fine cue. I think he does it mostly as a hobby so his cues are probably mostly in the Northwest.

    Question regarding common stroke trait of pros

    Corby's stroke Not bad Corby. You are off to a better start than most. If I were your coach I would recommend a few slight changes. Your stroke is a little too mechanical which creates a good poke, but not a stroke. You followed through which is a big plus. The next is debatable, but if...
