    Joe Salazar

    Stroke I grew up in Upland CA - he played at my home room (Shooters) back in the 80s. He and Frank Almanza were the 2 best players in that room. Joe was amazing. His stroke was like melted butter. Just great fundamentals and was crazy good on the bar box - I mean CRAZY good. He took down...

    Chalking just the outer edges of tip

    Mostly Kamui Because it seems to leave an excessive amount of chalk on the cue ball (although it will work with all other types of chalks).

    Chalking just the outer edges of tip

    For practicing too.. I find it helps to sometimes just wipe the tip clean and practice certain shots when you NEED to hit center ball. Like cuts along the rail most players tend to always use helping english but sometimes you have to hit it with a center ball to have the cue ball come straight...

    Chalking just the outer edges of tip

    Been doing this for a while now - I use Kamui chalk and it seems like there are a bunch of advantages to just chalking the outer edges: Less Chalk on the table Uses less chalk Less Chalk on cue ball (hit a center ball with Kamui and you will leave a big chalk mark on the cue ball) Less skids...

    Shortening the races on PPV events

    Anybody else feel a little cheated when they do this? I realize Appleton has already won the event but it seems a little nitty - like going to a baseball game and 2 teams that are out of the running for the playoffs agreeing to only play to 6 innings.

    Great stroke

    Very astute Very astute observation Alphadog. I have always like Jerry Brieseth's definition of a good stroke - a graceful throwing motion. Also - I have noticed the greats can move the cue ball around with less stroke speed BECAUSE they take advantage of the outer parts of the cue ball (and...

    He did open up a place in Fort Worth Was gorgeous - 2 tiers - mix of 9 foot and bar box diamonds. All diamond lights. Unfortunately he did not have the right guys running it - they played god awful rap music 24-7. Drew in the wrong crowds and heard the place got busted up. I know first...
