Samsari vs phenolic I just had my G-10 phenolic replaced with the Samsari break tip. It is the first time that I can say that I can have my cake (speed & power) & eat it too (control). Chalking is much less tedious too.

When you are up against the rail, is it advisable to elevate the cue or can it be kept level?

Samsara it is Thank you so much. It sounds like I can have my cake (hardness) & eat it too (control)

sledgehammer I bought one from Seyberts supposedly before McDermott took over the patent. Does that mean that you made it? I'm quite satisfied with it-just wondered.

custom cue Please excuse my ignorance. The cue is beautiful, but what are the functional advantages of a custom cue?

studying the Martha's Vineyard natives I suspect that all of you are correct. I notice that there are a number of "healthclubs" there. If I pull out my chalk to do deadlifts, they will probably arrest me for disorderly conduct. They probably use mink lined straps & prohibit sweating. I don't...

Our camper & monster truck will permit us to vacation with the Clintons & Obama for $50 per day. Kayaking, fishing, hiking, & the beach are supposed to be great. Access to Harvard & NYC nearby. What is the pool scene like?

Fargo Noth Dakota If I ever pass through Fargo, you can count on me to visit as long as I can park my truck & camper in your lot. Good luck!!!

runs as measure of progress How long should one be playing before it is reasonable to expect to run a rack, 2 racks... How does one measure progress in terms of runs?

very helpful The consistency of the study & your experience is really reassuring. It also supports the set,pause,follow through instruction. It is most observable in watching Allison Fischer. The real difficulty is getting it sufficiently hard wired into the brain so that the process becomes...

"quiet eye" What is the "quite eye?" My understanding is that during the "set" we focus on the CB, during the "pause" we move our focus to the OB for the stroke including follow through. Please define "quiet eye." Caution: my game is in its infancy.

dessicant from pill bottle If I use the dessicant from my vitamin bottle it might improve my powerbreak. Thanks for the additional source.

dry place I keep it in a dry room in its box & the boxes locked in a freezer bag. No, I don't put it in the freezer. Thank you all for the advice.

Sang Lee container I appreciate yur humor, but why does Sang Lee provide a container & caution that the chalk should be kept inside with a little bag of silicon? to prevent it from drying out?

Obviously, chalk is cheaper if purchased in larger quantities. However, if it has a limited shelf life then such purchases would be counter-productive. What is the shelf life of chalk before it begins to lose its effectiveness?

There is a great deal of discussion on here about high runs. I'm wondering if it is possible to use the number of balls run as a measure of progress. For example what would be a reasonable expectation after 1 year, 2 years, 3 years?
