    clean shaft and ferrule

    Even if you use no water what-so-ever with Comet or other dry cleaners, they still pick it up moisture from your cue shaft, your hands and the air. It otherwise would not work, that is unless you are talking about abrasives, and they wear down the shaft. Cleaners that seem to be harmless at...

    Product reveiw- slipstick

    The reason for this trial is that we have been working with 3M on a solvent that will work with the conditioner to accomplish 2 tasks; 1. Clean the shaft of waxes, grit and greases 2. Enable the Conditioner to be spread more efficiently using less volume because it is costly The end result is...

    Product reveiw- slipstick

    Sorry your pool hall closed. Anyway, it is unlike other products. It is not a concoction nor is any of our products re-packaged ones. Each product has been specifically formulated by chemists to target specific tasks. You no longer need to use other products once you begin using the Conditioner...

    Need test group - Billiard rooms and players

    The second batch of samples did not get mixed due to haste in getting it out. Just shake the bottle once and all should be fine. (It probably got shaken enough in shipping) What evaporated is the cleaning agent by design, leaving the conditioner behind. This will not raise the grain at all...

    Need test group - Billiard rooms and players

    Everyone that sent an email to me with their name and address as of 3 weeks ago should be receiving soon. We ran out of samples and had to get new formulations. I expect, with the exception of countries outside of the US, most should be arriving this week and early next. All samples have been...

    How do you play this shot?

    I played tonight and tried the shot a few times. Worked pretty good. I think it is just being familiar with this sort of shot. Again, as I stated in my first post - I would opt for the out.

    How do you play this shot?

    Try it, it should work quite well. Make sure you hit it soft. The CB will hit the bottom rail after the dbl kiss and start up table about 2 " or more. The one will come off the rail 2".

    How do you play this shot?

    If you are at the table now, try the safe I pointed out earlier assuming the one is on the rail. Play a soft shot to carom the CB off the one in the corner. The CB will not scratch because a double kiss will occur. Play it "slow roll". The result SHOULD be as follows. START(...

    Does anyone know this shot?

    As snapshot said, use low right.

    How do you play this shot?

    1. Soft middle-high right English to get the CB towards the side pocket (on the one ball side). Need a little high to get the CB to flair a bit and climb up table. 2. Another option is to just place safe off the one if you feel the 8 is too difficult. In which case leave the CB on top of the...

    A Question for all APA members

    Most handicaps reflect the play of a region and there is no way to get around this. The reason is competition of play as you stated. How many times have you seen a player run out racks and then to play another player who is much stronger and lose. They couldn't get out of a single rack. It...

    Eyes closed??!!! Believe it or not!!!

    There is a golf exercise that has you swing the club with your eyes closed. The purpose is to ensure that you have proper balance. I imagine this would also work quite well for pool as balance and stability are key fundamentals. In pool this would help promote staying down on a shot and not...

    Kevin Trudeau on 20/20 tonight

    Your right about the resources available. The reason for my posts is that they know about it and do not publish it and 20/20 should be doing this kind of stuff. This is ON-Post, why bash KT? His book actually follows the rules of grass roots healing and some religous beliefs. Big deal... Note...
