    Playing on fast tables-help

    All league season I shoot in bars on what I would call medium to slow tables. Then tournament time we play on fast tables and I have a hard time controlling cue ball speed. If I let up on my stroke I really struggle with getting the cue ball to react the way I want it to. I understand this is...

    New Mosconi Cup format

    I say we play on the 9ft Rasson with new cloth, balls, in a vest with dress shoes and a quiet crowd when it's held in Europe. In the US we play 8 ball on a 7 ft Valley with one dead rail, a tear in the cloth and some obnoxious Jukebox music, wearing flip flops, sweat pants and an old t-shirt...

    Billiards and hearing loss

    download a db reading app for your smart phone and see how high it goes on a break shot. I'd be curious about the reading.

    Why won't a guy from IA date a girl from MN after she's been out with a guy from WI? Ever see a gopher hole after a badger gets done with it?

    WTB or T for Purple Heart shaft

    I have a 30" Made by Reuben Fisher. It's 3/8-10 with black collar and has a Ultraskin Heavy Hitter tip on it. I'd have to measure because I don't remember if it was 13.25mm or 13mm tip. $100 shipped if you are interested.

    Cory Deuel's Cue

    I think I remember in one video the guys in the booth said that he has some sort of "lead" wrap on the very end of the butt. Thought they said it weights 23-24 oz. I've tried to watch the videos close, but I can't tell what it is. It's just slightly larger and different color than the rest of...

    Empty Seats

    I think it has more to do with who is on the TV table. It was standing room only when Earl was on it. And when Corey would win on the outer tables Thursday night you could hear the crown roar... people just are not there to watch the players they don't know. I love pool, but I find it hard...

    Put Earl Strickland on Team USA in 2017 Mosconi Cup

    I think Earl demands 100% from himself and when in a team setting, he expects that of others. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. I feel there have been times in the past where some of the American team members have taken the Cup too lightly and didn't give 100% and that did not sit...
