    Mosconi Cup Ladies Competition

    Not against the men... "a ladies division". Several ladies selected for each team would compete against each other in similar formats.

    Burnishing the tip

    I found that putting the tip under the a pool table rail where pool balls never touch. Then swipe the cue back and forth while rotating the cue in my hands. The tip contacting the table cloth will burnish the tip perfectly. Do not get it too hot to effect the glue.

    Mosconi Cup Ladies Competition

    If it 'ain't broke, don't fix it'. But ... I would like to see a ladies division added to the Mosconi Cup. I think it would add a lot to the entire production (especially the audience} but most importantly increase the pay per view. What are your thoughts?

    MOSCONI CUP 2023 AZB Watch Party / Master Thread

    I understand your opinion. This made for TV and is the most watched pool show and setting a new standard for pool...I like showmanship. Better than sitting on the looser side and pouting.

    One Pocket

    I should have included that you should have good shooting skills and then ask good One Pocket players to play with them. You need good basic skills first. Sorry I neglected that.

    One Pocket

    A lot of good suggestions here. What I found that helped me the most and quickly was to play partners One Pocket and your partner was allowed to coach. One drawback is that folks can take too much time talking and that takes the fun out of it.

    Need Advice For Refinishing Maple Shaft and Shaft Maintenance

    First, I would find out why my shafts are getting dirty. When I have a tip put on, I don't want the shaft or ferrule touched if possible. If it is a good shaft don't ruin it.

    New equipment idea

    I'm tired of all the black clothes pool players wear. It looks like they never wash clothes like a road player living out of a van. Look at the post #23. That is a nice bright colored jacket that could be used in pool wearables. Some nice polo shirts would be a welcome addition.

    Masse Shot

    I went back to the table to work on this and finally got back to moving the cue ball toward the ghost ball 18 inches or so, but also had about 6 inches of forward movement. Later tonight I will place the cue ball closer to the object ball and try a lower cue tip placement to get the draw I want...

    What shots objectively benefit from a closed bridge?

    Open bridges are for sissies...I like the MACHO feeling...it's intimidating.

    Masse Shot

    There are many ways to get position from shooting the 2 ball in the side pocket to shooting the 3 ball in the same side pocket. I am not looking for optional shots. This masse shot comes up from time to time. Many years ago I was proficient at this but it is very difficult for me to get the cue...

    Improvement

    I see improvement in two categories...shot making and strategy. This may help in strategy. Many good suggestions here. Improvement usually comes in steps so here's mine. Next time you play and come to a complex pattern. Take a photo...examine it later and see if there is a better way or if...

    The Great Break Discussion.

    Straight pool...make sure you have a tight rack especially in the back row. One pocket ...make sure the side row is tight on the side opposite of breaking.

    Does this ad bother you?

    If I had a problem with their products...would that be their response? More than merely sub-standard...but I'm 'old school'.
