    Anyone complete the 60 min wrkout in 60 mins?

    I'm a beginner so I don't even attempt it. I focus on 2 shots at a time spending about 30 mins on them. But I do wonder...in order to actually complete the workout in 60 minutes you'd have to only take 1 or 2 attempts max at each shot. There's 27 shots in the workout, if u take 30 seconds on...

    Pool Hall Junkies

    What about the 'crease in the pants'? When the guy can tell Walken has been playing pool because of the crease in his pants. Couldn't they have put chalk on his fingers or something? Has anyone gotten a 'crease on their pants' after playing pool? And then... so unique that "it can only be caused...

    I haven't tried it but it seems like it would be a great speed control drill. :)

    What Color is your Cloth?

    I suggested this to the mrs. But she says it won't wrk. My room is beige with one wine-colored wall. She says the artwork won't be enough to make it match. Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    What Color is your Cloth?

    I have red on mine kuz it fits my room perfectly. But just like 'incognito' hates it, several people on these boards have told me to get rid of it. I really want tournament blue but it doesn't fit at all with my room. :( Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    Isn't 10ball a call shot game?

    I'm a firm believer that the better player will always win slop or no slop; however, I can't even imagine how pissed off I would be if we are hill-hill and my opponent beats me with a lucky shot, like the one Efren pulled off in the first rack, on the 10 ball. Especially when therez $3,000...

    Isn't 10ball a call shot game?

    Interesting...I wonder why they do that? Thx for the reply. Btw, the match I was watching was the finals. It was reyes vs. Shuff. I didn't get to see who won though. Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    my balls are dirty

    I second this suggestion. I made my own with about $55 worth of materials from home depot and it wrks great! There is a great thread here with a step by step process. Very easy to make. Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    Isn't 10ball a call shot game?

    I was watching the 2010 fatboy challenge finals and Reyes missed the 10 ball into the top corner pocket. The ball hits the 2 rails and comes back to fall into the opposite corner pocket and he still won the rack. Why? Sent from my BlackBerry 9780 using Tapatalk

    10 Ball rules?

    I just saw a video last night where efren reyes misses the 10 ball in the top corner pocket but it bounces off 2 rails and goes in the opposite bottom corner pocket. This was the first 10 ball match I'd seen so I assumed the rules were the same as 9ball where slop counts. He won that rack and...

    My stroke is less wobbly now.

    My cue stick wobbles slightly when I take my backswings as well. But I can't figure out why. I've messed around with my bridge, my stance, video taped myself and can't find the problem. I still deliver the cue pretty straight (I believe). I can make 28 out of 30 long straight-ins consistently...

    Balls Wear Down?

    Practice Drills Spreadsheet & instructions

    Randy, Wouldn't the straight-ins count as testing stroke and alignment? I've always read here that they are a great way to work on your stroke, so that's what I've been doing to improve my stroke. (I shoot with a striped ball to check for unwanted sidespin) The straight up and down the table...

    Free Tip: Understanding the Pocket and Pocket Speed

    Hillbilly, I rented ur speed control video last night and really enjoyed it. May I make a humble suggestion for future videos? U might want to consider using a lavelier mic to eliminate the echo.
