    8 Ball Question

    There is nothing wrong with a defensive shot. As long as a the cue ball is stroked legally however the balls are repositioned is legal. In a team event every game can have an effect on the outcome. It wasn't just the creative shot that won the match, it was the cumulative outcome of all the...

    8 Ball Question

    My understanding is that the only time a ball is spotted in BCA 8 ball is if the 8 is pocketed on the break. I believe the ball stays down.

    Anniversary Snooker/Pool table differences

    When you say the rails are longer does that mean the aprons are also longer? Is the outside dimension of the slate longer? I have a set of Anniversary pool corner/side pocket castings and other mics parts If I built a set of rails from scratch would the slate and aprons be the correct...

    Anniversary Snooker/Pool table differences

    What are the differences between 5x10 Anniversary Snooker tables and pool tables? I think the rails are a different thickness with a different cushion profile and the corner/side castings are different. Is there anything else? Are their any differences in the aprons? The aluminum lower...

    Personal Pool Hall

    Brits and their chalk

    I'm not sure why a player wouldn't want to carry the chalk in a pocket. Mine stays in my back right pocket. I don't need a fancy holder. Always there when I need it. Never have to hunt for it. And I haven't noticed any problems with it making a mess. Before I tired it kinda seemed like it would...

    Banger TV

    Its strange some people seem to have a problem with less than stellar players in the US Open. Would you pay $500.00 to bat at the World Series or to shoot hoops with Michael Jordan? Rubbing elbows with pools elite, adding to the prize money and playing a small part in making the event a...

    When did tight pocket tables emerge?

    Have they been around forever or is it a trend from the last 20 years? My uncle graduated HS in early 60's Chicago and shot pool all over the city even making trips to the Johnston City tournys. When I purchased my pro pocket Pro Am in 2005 he was shocked when I showed him the pockets and I...

    Earl Strickland's ability

    I agree. This match has almost everything you need to know about Earl. He starts out dominating and running away with a commanding lead playing beautiful pool only to break down in the 11th hr with a persecution tantrum and blow it.

    Feet for diamond pro

    Do you mean you have a Professional or a Pro Am? If you have a Pro Am the legs could be inside the under table compartments. Just a thought. Hope you find them

    Ralph Greenleaf -- a rummy?

    This is a really cool vid. Thanks for the link. Every so often I read about players using a slip-stroke if I'm referring to it correctly. Was Greenleaf's stroke considered one? The shot at 4.04 demonstrates what I'm talking about. What are the claimed advantages of such a stroke? To me it...

    For BCA Rules the cue ball position is determined by its base and the headstring is part of the kitchen.

    Where's all the talk about moving to 10' tables?

    OK, you dont think 10 footers have a snowballs chance. I respect your opinion and always read your posts. I'm curious Lets pretend the unthinkable happens and there is a switch to 10's for major pro events. What effect you think that would have?
