    My aiming system is guessing....who use the Guessing System?

    I use both a system and a guess. The system is the 'parallel aiming system'. After completing the parallel system aim I go to my 'side to side' guess. Let me explain; take a straight in shot. Aim the cue ball to object ball, to the pocket. That completes the parallel part. Now for the...

    GPS trackers for cue cases

    Which Android GPS trackers are good for cue cases, personal property, etc. Simply leaving a cue case in a pool room while using the rest room or in my truck while parked or as checked luggage can be problematic. I have an Android/Samsung/Verizon phone and go to the pool hall located in a high...

    SHANE WOLFORD: A YOUNG MAN’S JOURNEY By Mary Kenniston

    Great story Mary. The first time I saw Shane was at the 2022 Music City Open. Loved his smooth stroke and composure under pressure. He seemed like a very clean cut athlete and I was glad to see him represent USA in the Mosconi Cup.

    Antique Brunswick t-rail install how tight and are washers used on the rail bolts?

    I asked this question several years ago... as I remember, Glen responded with 9 ft lbs. Any more and it may pull the anchors out. This is specifically for T-rails. There are special washers for these. They have serrated edges...don't remember the name. This one more reason I respect the real...

    is there benefit to increasing table difficulty factor on my home table?

    A lot of good suggestions here but try this before you make a change. Put an object ball in the center of the table and the cue ball in the jaws of a corner pocket. Now shot the object ball to the opposite pocket. If this doesn't drive you nuts then your stroke will greatly improve. You do not...

    Older players... what do you do?

    Find a pleasant place to walk 1 mile. Drive your car around the neighborhood or any place where you can measure about 1 mile. Now casually walk the mile at a very easy pace and time yourself. That is your benchmark. Next time you walk, stretch your neck muscles a little or swing your arms, do a...

    Shaft Selection Based on Deflection

    Consider an up and coming 400 or so Fargo rated player selecting a new cue. If her or his bridge length is normally 10 inches and they want to go with a low deflection cue: would you suggest a cue with a pivot point of 10 inches or and ultra low deflection shaft of 17 inches or more? And why?

    How to improve the popularity of pool?

    The strategic action is to identify the target audiences. We as a pool playing group ( players, equipment manufacturers, ruling bodies, pool room owners, etc.) do not seem to have a clue where we could grow nor how to do it. As an example a ripe audience would be folks under 21. It is usually...

    Can a soft tip be hardened while on the shaft?

    I prefer the side to mushroom a little like that, but that is just me. If you try to push your fingernail in the side and it makes the tip expand like an accordion, to me that is forever a bad tip. Thanks for posting the photo.

    Can a soft tip be hardened while on the shaft?

    Practice your break shot with it...this usually works.
