    If you use a jump cue then most likely than not I'm getting ball in hand....

    I can jump ok but I can kick really well. It's good to have options. I like kicking better if it makes sense percentage wise.

    Can’t get a straight, accurate answer from anyone. What is the story of this cue? Mispelled Mizerak (MiSerak)

    The trouble is that there were some good Mizerack cues, but for every good Mizerack cue there are thousands of absolute dog shit ones. It makes the brand as a whole very undesirable. Look them up on ebay and you will see junk. Go to something like Dick's sporting goods and hold one and you will...

    Do you have special shoes for shooting pool?

    I promise I am not kidding here, Crocs. They are comfortable and lightweight shoes. You can spend hours on concrete with them and your feet don't hurt. If you're self conscious get a black pair. I wear a mint green pair. It sound funny but I've got several compliments about them. Sorry ladies...

    Thanks for the info.

    What does the perfect glove feel like?

    I'll bite. This sounds almost to the point of ridiculous but this method really works: Buy Boraxo hand cleaning powder. (dang just went for an amazon link and of course it's f'ing discontinued now, used to be cheap cheap but now you can get an off brand in a large 5lb container for $36 on...

    Full length core instead of A joint?

    Has anyone ever experimented with a full length core from the butt sleeve to the joint pin? Any reason it wouldn't work or is a bad idea? I see a lot of cues using an A joint construction method so I'm guessing that's the correct way to do it, but I have a nagging thought that a single core...

    What does the perfect glove feel like?

    This. Skin to skin is best in pool and other activities.

    Your First Time

    I really don't know. I know we had a slate sears table in the basement and I'd watch mom and dad play their friends when really little. Then when I was about 5 or so I remember trying to play, with pretty much zero instruction. My mom and dad were pretty sporty players in the little bar in town...

    Had Enough?

    Don't forget to make threads about which tip is best at least once a week, that usually gets you past a slump quicker than anything! 😂

    How to Aim Rail-First Carom and Kiss Shots

    Good video. For direct shallow kicks, one method I like to use is to imagine the line from the center OB to the pocket. You can then do a parallel shift of this line to the rail. Try to hit the CB into the rail on this parallel line. It's not as scientific or anything but it becomes deadly...

    Taom V10 is the best chalk I've used. If you've got something better tell me what and why.

    Speak for yourself, my Fargo rate jumped up 100 points and the only difference was the chalk!😉 😂😂

    Taom V10 is the best chalk I've used. If you've got something better tell me what and why.

    A round of V10 or a cube of Pagulayan will last over a year of playing several times a week. It works out to pennies a day. Couple that with the reduced filth and wear on the cloth and such and it pays for itself. But... and this is a major one, it's only economically viable if you're not the...

    Purple Heart and Camel Bone

    Dang, that's a nice cue, it has a really neat design. This will make someone a great cue, good luck with the sale.

    Joss Customer Service

    Definitely. I'd rather wait a bit longer and have the cuemaker making the cue when he was inspired to do so, or at least in the right headspace. Doing quality work takes a different mindset than just churning things off the assembly line. Cuemaker time is almost like dog years. If they give...

    What does a good stroke feel like?

    When I'm playing my best I feel like a floating pair of eyeballs. Head is quiet, no real thinking going on and I just feel the game playing through me. If you're thinking about stroke much it's hard to stroke good. But... when we aren't stroking good we have to remember to do so. It usually...

    "Bushwacker" vs. McCready

    Oh my word! @azhousepro is there any way possible you would sell this on DVD? This has to be one of the funniest things I've ever heard. Grady was sharp as a tack and had a way with words. I'd love to watch this match, two great players too. Keith was always so fun to watch, and googling some on...

    Humidity

    I understand your hesitation to do so, but a dehumidifier is basically something like a refrigerator, freezer or microwave. They are an appliance that is meant to run on it's own built in moisture meter with minimal maintenance for years. It really does make a lot of difference using a hose and...
