I used to live in Hawaii. I lived in this appartment complex in Manoa Valley. There was a Samoan family that lived across from me and about twice a month they would get into a family fight in the parking lot. The father, mother and older kids (in their teens) would be out there punching each...

I've been using Triangle too. Been using them for about a year and am very pleased with them.

I remember when FL was banned not once but twice on this forum. There were people here who claimed this wasn't "American" that this is the land of the free, etc. It just cracks me up that FL is laying waste somewhere else and I hope that the people here that were giving Mike such a hard time...

Stand up straight behind the cb with your stick pointing down the line of the shot behind the cb. Have your grip on the cue where it should be when you shoot. The tip of the cue should be right behind the cb. Stand squared up looking down the line with the stick on the line behind the cb...

I see goals as something to achieve in the long term. I wouldn't set a goal for tomorrow but I would set one for a year away. If you set a goal to walk 1,000 miles by the end of the year, a good objective would be to walk 100 miles in one month. More short term objectives would be to set the...

Goals are good to set but you'll never reach your goals without a good plan and some observable and measurable objectives. My goal is to surpass a 100 USPPA rating. My plan is to; increase my practice time to 4 hours a day utilizing all the things Buddy Hall taught me, exercise at least 30...

I tried that and it wasn't all that easy. Turns out there was a piece of paper stuck in the seam of the bottom of the table. We had to get under the table and pull the paper out. Btw, I played Greg Sullivan 1h in a tournament and he beat me pretty good. The guy has some great moves. Buddy...

Yes. They used the Diamond Smart tables too. In the past, they used the older Diamond tables. I didn't feel that these Diamond Smart tables were any better or worse than the older tables. One thing about these Smart tables is that if the balls hang up in the ball return, they're not real...

I played on it in Reno. At first I didn't like it at all. It just looked odd to me I guess. After playing on it for a while, I got to where I really liked it. You can see all the balls really well, even the 6 ball stands out.

Barbara, You need a deck hand? I had a 30' Pacific Seacraft - Orion for a few years and then the kids started coming. Damned!!

I definitely see your point but it would still be entertaining I'm sure. Putting Ewa aside for a moment, the styles of a Jimmy and a Mitch would be interesting to listen to. Jimmy is a runaway train that has a lot of knowledge and Mitch is the voice of reason. Could be a great combination.

Oh, I'll tell you one I didn't like, Kevin Trudeau. I watched that IPT match between Lori John and Mike Sigel and Kevin kept walking all over Kim Davenport's commentary. Kim was supposed to do the color and Kevin kept injecting his own thoughts and then asked Kim to verify that what he was...

I played this guy in a 1h tournament and he was a straight pool player. He won the set. I thought he shot very well and won because he was able to identify some shots in the pack due to his 14.1 experience. After the set he tells me that he played awful. I chuckled and told him, "Thanks...

I like Danny the most. I think Mataya is a hoot and I'd love to see him and Mitch Laurence together. It might be cool to have Mitch (voice of reason and decorum), Danny (knowledge and good at buffering Mataya) and Jimmy Mataya together. Wouldn't that be a hoot? I'd like to see how good Mitch...

Well, if you place the ob closer to the side rail, depending on how close, it would certainly enhance the probability of making it. However, Jude, me, Wayne and most players that do compete in tournaments or for cash would usually duck the shot that Hal diagrammed. The percentage of making it...

Diamond. I think the rubber is better on a Diamond than on the Brunswick. JMHO.

I think it really depends on how the match went. I played a guy not too long ago and we just really hit it off. He was a real gentleman and I recognized that early on in the match and complimented him on it during the match. I won the match and shook his hand and told him it was a real...

I got the feeling that Bob was trying to say that this shot shouldn't be that difficult but he was having a real hard time with it and can't understand why. To me, the diagram that Hal showed makes me wonder why Bob would feel like he should make this shot. The diagram that Hal depicted looks...

JamisonNeu, How do you explain a shooter like Buddy Hall then? He hesitates on his backstroke all the time. I don't disagree with you totally. I think that when a player does something different when he/she shoots that this is deleterious to making a successful shot. In other words, if they...
