    It's also possible you have popups blocked???? As suggested I would try another browser first. Chrome, or as a last resort IE.

    18.5 oz too light for a break cue?

    If you know what weight you want, just specify that to whoever you order from. I have a Thor Hammer, and when I ordered, I told them I wanted one that had a lighter weight. I'm sure you could specify the weight you want. I believe the weights of the Thor Hammer varies.

    Need your input on Joss Thor Break Cue

    I like the color. I'm at work now so can't do a "real" to "on screen" comparison, but my guess is the real ironwood color is more consistent with the lighter of the tones shown on the pictures on the website. From the website pics it almost looks like the ironwood cues shown have a different...

    Need your input on Joss Thor Break Cue

    The Thor Hammer Ironwood Light was waiting for me when I got home. I shot 30 racks of 8-ball. I was consistently getting good spread on the balls. Still figuring out the best location to break from, but initial impression is I like it! In the final 10 racks or so, I made at least one ball...

    Need your input on Joss Thor Break Cue

    Yes I got Free Shipping also. I will give initial thoughts tomorrow as I'll try it out at home tonight. As far as the color, I got the Ironwood (not the Purple Heart). If I understood the description, the Ironwood has some minor purple heart accents. Excited to see it!

    Need your input on Joss Thor Break Cue

    I ordered the Joss Thor Ironwood Light on Friday 5/11, and it should be there when I get home today. I'll let you know what I think. I paid $220 from a pool website. Not sure if I can post the specific site here, so PM me if you want to know where I got it. $220 was the cheapest price I saw...

    Stranger in a Minnesota Pool Hall

    I would also disagree that the Mpls / Minnesota pool scene is hurting. Compared to other areas, we have 5 pool halls (Shooters, CRs, Biffs, Jimmys, Two Stooges) in the Metro area, and several other venues that have pool tables that host traveling leagues. As Rick mentioned, we also have the...

    What is “the better player”?

    I took stamina to mean being able to maintain a high level of play consistently throughout the entire long match. I guess it depends on definition of the attributes as someone else mentioned earlier.

    What is “the better player”?

    I find it interesting that several so far have stamina listed last, when that seems to be a major factor for the "long race" of which this thread is talking about. My list coming (still need to think where stamina should fall).

    Instructors!

    Several years ago, the Vikings brought in a specialist (coach / instructor) to break down the kicker and give suggestions on how to improve his game. The kicker was noted to be one of the tops is his field.... and he was in a wheelchair. I don't think he ever played football.

    Who makes the best Billiard Glove

    +1 for Finger Slides. I've tried other gloves and they would always wear through the pal area with 3 months or so. I've had the Finger Slides for 9 months now, and not even the beginning of a wear issue. For those concerned about 2-piece configuration, I believe they can also be customized to...

    Can't Sleep After Competing....Help!

    If you have that attitude after your match, you may also be letting game situations affect your match as you are playing. You really need to work on letting it go. You can't change it. It's over. Move on. This can make a big difference in your play as you are in the moment, not letting...
