    Which Variable Is the Cause of Most Missed Shots

    Option 2, ************************ Option 1: is a fairly basic concept to learn and any player that puts effort into understanding the physics of the game "should" have a strong handle on squirt. Option 3: although a reality of playing with spin, this is also something that an experienced...

    What differences are there between Mezz AirDrive2 jump cue and the newer AirDrive3?

    I don't agree with anything quoted above. Fortunately we don't have to. :)

    What differences are there between Mezz AirDrive2 jump cue and the newer AirDrive3?

    I've hit countless jumpers but only used three with any regularity. The longest runner was my OG Falcon jump/break. I generally have a fairly straight stroke and used to cue up to a jump in the same manner as a normal shot, (forearm down). Range was the problem with this solid maple /...

    What differences are there between Mezz AirDrive2 jump cue and the newer AirDrive3?

    So, now that I have spoken about how sensible I was about forking out large dough for a jumper. I will admit that I did make the conscious decision to pay North of 1k for my Mezz CF breaker. I think when it comes to high dollar equipment purchases. We need to keep in mind the user and...

    What differences are there between Mezz AirDrive2 jump cue and the newer AirDrive3?

    Speaking as a big proponent of jumping in the game. I wholeheartedly agree with you. I lusted over the Cuetec Propel for literal years since it's release, but I could never justify pulling >$600 out of my wallet. Even though that disposable cash did run through my hands on occasion. Always...

    My Fargorate progression

    I've personally adopted the MR format 98% of the time. Unless I'm playing in a less progressive room/league that still follows the old rules. Just a different CB placement and target area on the 1 ball. Both are hit at the same pace, (hard enough to be effective). While I won't claim the...

    My Fargorate progression

    Math is math. Can't deny that. However, I experienced disqualification a month or so ago just prior to a rare <680 event. The weekly recalculation had me tick up a point from 679. No play, just the weekly adjustment. I pay enough attention to know it was going to come back down, but the TD...

    Look how well professional pool on the global level is doing. Even AZB has nothing better to complain about than players making smart financial decisions. Getting more and more like a real sport everyday

    US Open-The Other Way Around

    Seeing more whining about pro pocket size these days on AZB when I pop in, has become as reliable as hearing my daughters bitching at each other when I get home from work.

    2024 World 8 Ball Championship (2-8 Sep), New Zealand , Winner $75K

    As always, when you exclude the inconvenient data. Everything makes obvious sense... You make it seem like Ontario is/was the obvious choice merely based on it's population. Problem is, even with player dense area. The events struggle to reach 50players. The truth of the matter is that the...

    2024 World 8 Ball Championship (2-8 Sep), New Zealand , Winner $75K

    Don't give us too much credit. The "national" tourney is usually 90% locals and I can't recall it ever being outside of Ontario.

    Hitting better with a hard tip?

    Still don't know who makes the tip I play with. All I know is that it feels like a hard tip would feel, and my cue guy shapes it once.
