    If you could recast The Color of Money...

    I think ur going after the wrong demographic. They don't allow children in pool halls yet do they? And if they do, parents aren't gonna let them go. U need to attract 18+ age group. Disney stars aren't gonna do it ;) Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    Billy bob thorton as eddie No vincent...instead... a different character who is a natural at pool but hates hustling because he feels hez robbing people of their hard earned money. However he has the need (for whatever reason) so he struggles with that decision. This character could be played by...

    Custom Pool Room

    As impressed as I am with this man's talents...I think what impresses me the most is his discipline to stay the course. :) had it been me...as soon as I would've had an enclosure and the pool tables, I would've had them set up so I can start playing and "I'll finish the room later" mentality...

    Practice Drills Spreadsheet & instructions

    Scott, Thanks so much for replying. I also use a laser to set up the shots when I practice my straight-ins. Lately I've also incorporated the 2 golf tees behind the cue ball to try and straighten my stroke. My shaft wobbles slightly during my warm-up strokes so I'm hoping the tees will help...

    Production Cues

    I'm curious...why would one need a backup cue? Those of us who play tennis carry backup racquets in case: U break a string Balls are flying on u so u switch to a higher tension Balls are short so u switch to lower tension. But backup cue? I hope these things don't break often. :-O I'm a...

    Art decor

    Assuming I found 'free' images on the internet, wouldn't they become pixelated when I blow them up? I have looked on ebay but I only found B/W pictures. I'd like some pictures of players like Archer, Reyes etc. I did find some very nice artwork on art.com. I just have to see if I can find cheap...

    That's a good idea but won't there be copyright problems with this? I know walmart, for example, is very particular about what they can print for u. My wife has had trouble with that in the past. But I guess therez a very easy way to find out :D thx for the suggestion! And thx for all the other...
