It all has to do with how often the shaft is cleaned and how messy the individual is with the chalk. Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser works wonders on dirty shafts. That's what I would reccommend.

There aren't any physiological changes to the neurons but there is a learning curve for efficient firing and motor unit recruitment. It's just like in weight lifting, your nervous system will hinder you in the beginning until it begins to work more efficiently with more extensive fiber...

That is a beautiful Gilbert! VAP, my guess is that a similar cue from Andy would be around $1500 +/- a couple hundred. If you want to call him and get a quote for something similar his number is 417-743-2759.

It actually is a conditioning of the specific muscle fibers. It's much the same as when you have a muscle atrophy from lack of use because it's been in a cast, it takes no time at all to get it back to normal size. This is specific to the muscle fibers and not so much the brain. This is not...

I would be willing to wager that this is not the case...lol. 30+29=59 P.S. 60' = 60 feet and 60" = 60 inches, just an FYI.

It's not that low percentage of a shot, but I had just read some stuff on the diamond system and was playing a buddy I play all the time. I broke and didn't make anything and he played a safety on my that was something like the layout shown. He was talking a lot of shit and I kicked the one in...

One has a pad and the other doesn't. It came this way when I bought it. Thanks for the compliment on the cue.

I got a 95% :( I missed the one about two ball groups. I originally had false for the answer but then I figured that since it was a "beginners" quiz it could be two instead of three minimum. Oh well, I guess I'm a loser even though I got my name on the board...lol.

I have a Skip Weston for sale. The cue is in very good shape but has a few minor dings and the metal rings have expanded somewhat and can be slightly felt through the finish. This cue retails for a little over $1500 and I'm offering it for $1000. The cue comes with two shafts with ivory...

But what if they knew that you knew that they knew you would think they would know that you knew that was the case? Ah hell, just build up a tolerence I guess...lol. This topic is just mostly dead.

It's a pretty easy two step process. 1. Learn to hit where your aiming on the cueball. 2. Aim at the bottom of the cueball...lol.

I wouldn't try to talk you into buying a $1200 cue, however, I do have one for $1000 that I'll sell you! :D :D

Hey, you leave the strongman competitions alone! Those are awesome.

I don't think a billiards website/forum is really the place to address that issue. That being said, I would think that it would be more beneficial to help them to make their own country better rather than moving over here. I don't think there's enough room for a billion or so people to move...

I would think the proper wood choices would go a long way!

Sure any decent player "can" play with a house cue or a broom stick. Hell, I beat some poor schmuck with a broom back a few years ago when I was about a D+ player...lol. The point is you may be able to play with a house cue but there's nothing wrong with getting a nice custom, or two, or three...

I thought it would be good for a chuckle. :) I know I chuckled anyhow...lol.

OHB = OldHasBeen = Tom Ferry OHB is a great pool player in the St. Louis area who will play you some cheap sets. Playing someone who is better than you when there is something on the line is the best way to get better. That is why I recommended that you see if you can play some regular sets...

Tap, tap, tap Woody.

Mark Wilson I have to suggest Mark Wilson. I think he is a great instructor and going to him and letting him create a consistant repeatable stroke from scratch would be an excellent thing to do! His website is www.playgreatpool.com. That being said, you have to reallize that after the...
