    McDermott finally fixing the "tacky" defy problem... Hopefully.

    I have a demo of the upcoming shaft and the finish is a lot better. Everyone I have let try it love the new feel.

    Archer's Place, Marietta Ga...??

    Agreed. There is a Dave and Busters near Cincinnati Ohio that had 9ft tables, like 5 of them, and they were kept in great condition. They even had a 5x10 snooker table at one point. Would be interested to see if they are still there.

    A robot applying maximum spin?

    Not getting draw on the cue ball is the trick to this shot. Any draw or follow slows down the cue ball. Looks like he broke Florians record by a couple of seconds. I have tried the spin shot on a carom table before as well. It was not heated but brand new felt and I got 56 seconds. Fun times.

    Pool Room Customers That Return Tray of Pool Balls in Sequence - Why?

    I was at a pool room two days ago and the attendant gave the rack of balls that were in order 1-15 with the cue ball last. I thought of this thread when I got them. I returned the balls the exact same way.

    Benefits of joining an APA league?

    He did play in leagues when he was younger but agree, he didn't get better by playing 3s and 4s. lol As many have said, leagues are good for consistent play. You know that once a week, you are guaranteed to play pool that day. The other benefit of leagues is not playing the same people all...

    "legends" of today

    I would throw in Mike Massey and Tom Rossman in this as well. They are still doing their thing at their age and both are BCA Hall of Famers.

    The Marty Carey cue is legal to use in leagues and tournaments. It is designed for close up jumps.

    Matchroom Hotels requirements

    One thing we do not know is if there is any compensation by the hotel. If there is, then it would be part of the deal.

    mcdermott defy

    I would disagree on needing to smack the crap out of the ball to move it around a 9ft table. My friends who I have sold shafts too move the rock just fine and then there's all the crazy stroke shots I do with it. Its obvious your a Cuetec person, which is cool, but no need to mischaracterize a...

    mcdermott defy

    I have only hit a handful of shots with a Revo but I would say the new finish make the shaft feel similar. I have been playing with the prototype for a week or so and haven't noticed a change in the feel. Granted I wear a glove all the time anyways (even when I shot with wood) so that is...

    Yes. The next gen shaft coming out in July is way better than the gen 1 that originally came out.

    mcdermott defy

    The ferrule color change is a different material. One that is more sterdy. So new finish, new ferrule material that is white, thinner grey ring on the bottom. Same tip.

    mcdermott defy

    The new shafts will be a combination of both. The grey ring is thinner than it is now and has black under it. I have a gen 1 defy shaft but it is quick release. If you ever want a 12mm Gen 1 for a quick release, I have one for you. :)

    Anyone see the format for this year's SBE pro event?

    The carom event didn't happen last year either and unless Predator does an event, it won't be coming back. That event was mainly to help professor cue ball sell his magazine. Now that is has retired from doing the magazine, the carom event is not happening.

    I don't know exactly what the coating is so I am not going to venture a guess.
