Yes, Mitch is a professional commentator, he just doesn't know the game that well. No comparison IMO to Buddy. Buddy knows the game. Nothing against Mitch, but I would love to see Buddy explain shots, etc.

I enjoyed Buddy's commentating very much. He is not the best voice wise or grammar wise, but as I told someone that is not why I am watching pool. I really enjoyed him much more than Mitch (on ESPN). Buddy does a great job explaining the game and each shot. I think that adds alot to it for the...

I have 2 main cues and a jump cue. I hit with an older Mali - 19.5 oz. I break with a Stealth cue - 19.5 (for now) My jump cue is a Stealth. I have other house cues but not really anthing worth mentioning (really cheap cues). I have had a Viking and McDermott but sold them. The Mali I will...

Thanks for taking the time. I looked it over quickly. Will print it and look at it closer. Jim "preacherman"

Bill, Could you elaborate on what is involved in each day of practice. Thanks, Jim "preacherman"

I would love to hear from you all as to "wholesome" pool establishments. www.dictionary.com defined "wholesome" as: Promoting mental, moral, or social health. I would love to hear about these places and list some on my website: www.christianpoolplayers.com Thanks, Jim "preacherman"

Chris, I found it a pleasant observation too. Most who responded to this post do not drink and play pool. Some images are worth getting rid of, and drunk pool players is a great image for us to get rid of. Jim "preacherman"

I have heard similar games, sounds good! - I like this! Now my goal is a perfect 300 :-) Jim "preacherman"

I drink only water. I hope to see more people (as some already have posted) clearify that good pool playing and being completely sober (and drug free) is possible, and best! Jim 'preacherman"

I have bought 4 USED cues online all through E-BAY. All have been good deals and some of my favorite cues. - First was a plain (but attractive) brunswick - it was light - I gave it ot my wife she loves it. Then I got a Mcdermott with 2 shafts (one 12.5 mm and other 13 mm). Used that for awhile...

On my former table, with big pockets, I used the pocket reducers and found them very helpful for straight in percision shooting! Which is when I used them - when I wanted to work on percision center pocket shots, but obviously for other types of practice they need to come off. I love my new...

Good thought on the switch from 860 to 760 cloth. I had always thought use 860 as that is what you will always play on, but my table too is in the basement (though finished), I run a dehumdifier in the room year round. It pulls about 1 1/2 - 2 gallons a day in the summer - that's a lot of water...

djb, Thanks for the feedback. I do miss cheating the pocket - And I was so good at it - lol! Jim "preacherman"

I want to bring this up. I've seen it under other posts but thought it needed it's own title. I have pockets that are approx. 4 1/8 and I personally think it helps my game. My previous table, had pockets that were 4 1/2 (atleast) and I always felt they were too big. I like the tighter...

I find that handicap systems can be somewhat frustrating. People are fine when they beat me. But when I start playing better than them they start mumbling, "your better than your handicap". Which in truth I can be. What keeps my handicap lower is I panic on the 8 or 9 and when that happens I...

Hi this is Jim (preacherman), I sort of took off the summer from playing in leagues or local tournaments. But I have been practicing throughout the summer. Today I went to a local tournament (APA), basically to see if my skills against another player had increased or decreased over the summer...

Practice alone is it sufficient I really appreciate someone at your level of play, being willing to ask questions and share with us in this forum. I also am pleased with the priority that you put on your family :-) I have took off league play for the summer months. I still practice alone...
