    I LOVE this product. Just received the deluxe model in the mail. Awesome construction & just an absolute awesome addition to my cue case. Almost worth breaking my wrist to have found it :)

    Anyone ever try the Proshot Glove?

    I purchased this when it came out to help me stop twisting my wrist on my finish. Used it a couple of times, now it's on the shelf. It didn't really help me much. Eventually I took lessons, had my stroke analyzed on video and recieved personalized feedback and advice on what I needed to adjust...

    Not only is the device awesome, but I have seen him play (in the predator tour i believe) and the man is awesome!! He is truly an incredible talent and inspiration.

    mechanical bridge for injured wrist/hand?

    You know, this is a great idea. I actually purchased something that sounds very similar called the London Bridge. I might give it a try. The other suggestion from Blue Hog Ridr & Whammo57 about the moose head bridge is a good one as well. I knew I had come to the right place!

    mechanical bridge for injured wrist/hand?

    I broke my wrist on my bridge hand this past weekend. I am in a cast for 6 weeks. It is near impossible for me to bridge with this contraption. I was hoping that there was some sort of mechanical bridge, perhaps one designed for prosthetics? Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I refuse...

    Making a world beater

    What about the mental side of the game, both the strategies involved as well as the ability to think and execute under pressure. I have seen the most talented of players miss straightforward shots in pressure situations. I remember a guy telling me once that if it weren't for pressure, there...

    Tips for a newbie?

    I am looking to begin streaming some of our local tournaments from one of our local pool rooms. I think this could also be useful for our in house leagues as well. This is 100% not for profit, just trying to bring some additional popularity to the game for our locals and I also think this would...

    Inconsistent stroke

    What is the rational for advocating against lessons? Is it the money? Is it accessibility to instructors? I learned more in a weekend then I have in all my years of playing. There is something to be said for "understanding" why things happen or work. I don't disagree that a person can become an...

    Inconsistent stroke

    You are getting lots of good advice throughout this thread. I feel strongly that you should seek out a certified billiard instructor and let them analyze you as you shoot a variety of shots. I have been playing pool for over 20+ years and was stuck in my game, which was inconsistent at best. I...

    The Mosconi cup is everything pool should be!

    I was watching some of the you tube video from day 1 and man, the Mosconi cup is everything pool should be! The crowd was so engaged, boustrious, cheering - totally into it. The video production and commentary is awesome. How anyone could not get jacked up watching it is beyond me. As I watched...
