    Pivot Points of Carbon Fiber Shafts

    All that is a given. Everyone wants a good feeling cue, but you are missing out on the fun of aiming with spin. I used to try to do it by feel and guesswork, then I tried aim and pivot. It's amazing how much easier it is. High inside is fun! Lose the draw, go forward, young man.

    Pool on TV - a fantasy

    I like listening to commentary from Daniel at POVPOOL. Fairly knowledgeable, and he has a great voice. He can't be on mike all the time, so there are a couple subs I like. One is Truman, the other is Dave Hemmah. Hemmah and Tang Hoa were great together, too.

    Pool Hall equipment for sale

    Mark: Remember a place called the Arcade? I think that's what it was called. I played there a few times while going to Navy Sonar School in '66-'67. The entrance was downstairs. Seems like it was around the corner from the Burly-Q. (Hey, I was nineteen). From what I remember, it was quiet...

    Starting treatment on Monday

    Thank you, Scott!! I have watched a lot of videos about cancer since her diagnosis. Here's a good one about the ketogenic diet and hyperbaric oxygen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVphPQjRNbw&t=5m55s HBOT is not approved by the FDA for cancer treatment, so insurance will not pay for it...

    Starting treatment on Monday

    Here she is last week, getting into the HBOT chamber. I started the video in portrait mode, my mistake, so it came out sideways: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtC-QEbUq88&feature=youtu.be She had a broken back a year ago. One of the doctors in the hospital told me at some point, before all...

    Also, get Jane McClellan's book. The kindle edition is less than $5. I don't usually watch the "chrisbeatcancer" youtube channel, but I decided to click on the episode with her as a guest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qReudtklq9Y Here's another one, haven't watched it yet...

    Starting treatment on Monday

    My wife has stage 4 breast cancer. She had a lumpectomy about six years ago. The surgeon told us he got it all, so she opted out of post op radiation and chemo. She started having trouble walking about two years ago, so a year ago she finally went in for a checkup. The doc ordered an MRI...

    Tiny pocket practice..

    Remember when the Family Billiards rooms were new, about fifty years ago? I used to practice with pool balls on the ten foot snooker tables.

    started moving the cue ball with only stun

    Bob: I used to do a lot of drills where I set the balls up in a line and shot them into the same pocket, drawing back for position on the next ball. I found using inside draw I could "straighten out the angle" so the cue ball didn't slide too far off to the side, out of position.

    Ed Kelly Passes

    Rich, are you saying you have cancer too? If it shows up on a PET scan, then it's the type that feeds on glucose, as most do. I urge you to look into the ketogenic diet for cancer. Diet here is a four letter word. This is really a metabolic therapy for managing the disease, not a diet. My...
