    Are my patterns off or is it just me?

    8-Ball Thanks for the help guys. So, the link ball isn't necessarily the closest ball to the 8 ball but the ball that will most likely allow a stop shot on the 8 and your pattern should go back from the link ball? Is there a "point of no return"? What I mean is, if I pocket 6 of my 7 object...

    Are my patterns off or is it just me?

    I am having trouble closing out games and was hoping for some insight from the instructors here. After breaking, provided I make a ball, I can usually pocket the majority of my object balls but I tend to get stuck on the 8 ball or my last two object balls before the 8. Do you think it’s more...

    Minneapolis cue demo's

    Doc's Try Doc's in Spring Lake Park. If you happen to run into Keith, you may be staying a little longer than you thought. He's a great guy that can talk your ear off! Probably even give you a tour of his shop. I also know Peter's Billiards is pretty big but not sure what they have for cue...

    Seperated Ribs. Anyone had them...........

    Ribs Geno, I wish you a speedy recovery. I've had three collapsed lungs, all were spontaneous. Two of which required major surgery and involved separating ribs. The last one happened nearly 7 years ago now and have only recently stopped feeling the affects of the surgery. One thing I wish I...

    Looking To Have A Custom Cue Made

    Home players in Minneapolis area...

    MPLS Pool I'd have interest in something like that. I'm only 10 minutes away in Crystal. My M8 night is Sunday. It would be great having other options and different locations to play instead of the same few places all the time. Rick

    Thoughts on this Anniversary

    I'm several hours away from him so not very close but would still make the trip if I could get some info up-front from the seller. I thought he was kind of strange too. He said he had a bunch of collectors asking about it. Kind of makes me wonder why they didn't snap it up if he's telling the...
