    Why do some pool halls enforce the use of break pads?

    I haven’t done any scientific/controlled experiments but I feel like it should, maybe negligible on a barbox but considerable on a 9 foot table? You are funny 🤪

    Why do some pool halls enforce the use of break pads?

    I would think it slows down your break

    Why do some pool halls enforce the use of break pads?

    Wear marks don’t affect playability, and that’s what they are.. I mentioned that if the cloth is not brand new, this is pretty absurd. How long does it take for the CB to reach the head ball? Considering that, the time of contact would become relatively large.

    Why do some pool halls enforce the use of break pads?

    Beyond Billiards in Davie used to require them, as I recall.

    Why do some pool halls enforce the use of break pads?

    I want to find the person that started this trend and ask them the reasoning behind forcing experienced players to use a loose piece of cloth under the cue ball to “protect the cloth”. If using proper break technique, on follow through the cue tip doesn’t really contact the cloth right below the...

    WANTED: Reviews & CF Shaft Experiences

    I recently got a GO Customs break shaft in a trade. I have previously owned a BK Rush and many Mezz Power Break G which are great break cues (PBG a tad bit better than the BK). I always ended up selling both these cues, many times, because I couldn’t justify paying that much for a break cue...

    Break cues Joss, Pure X, Predator shaft

    Personally I like the Joss better. I can pop and squat the cb very easily with it. My complaint about the Pure X was that the butt is too skinny, I have big palms and stubby fingers so I didn’t like the feel that much. UPDATE: 314 and Pure X is gone. Joss still available.

    Question about eyesight

    How big of a factor is good eyesight for a player’s ability to advance? I ask because I’m technically blind without corrective lenses, and I prefer wearing contacts because my prescription is pretty heavy. I’ve noticed that I’m sometimes struggling with aiming those thin cuts, or long...

    Joe Porper Cue-Rite tip shaper/cutter

    Left = Joe Porper’s Cue-Rite, $65 on Amzn. Did an OK job of shaping, the downside is you really have to hold the shaft in place. The aluminum barrel has an insert which can potentially put dents in the shaft if you don’t do it correctly. The blade (shown in pics for people interested) literally...
