+1 for the Hammerhead. I've been using one for several months now, and it's easily my favorite break tip that I've used. Taom lost me when the first one shattered into pieces. With the Hammerhead, I don't even have to hit hard, I can use a regular stroke and get a great break. The glue is...

Been using a BK2 for a couple of years now. IMO, the tip makes a huge difference. Taom was pretty good until it shattered, Samsara is a great break tip when installed correctly. White diamond is right up there with Samsara. I've been using the Outsville Hammerhead the past few months and I'm...

Chrome doesn't support flash anymore.

Was stationed in Kings Bay, GA for 5 years from 2001-2006, and Jacksonville was the closest thing to the base. If it's anything like it was back then, look for another part of Florida to live in. May I suggest the Orlando surrounding areas, Or if you're looking for something quieter, Ocala. I...

I've improved a bunch since joining AZB, but that's mainly because I spend all my time on the table instead of on the forums. :wink:

Having gotten some pointers from him in Staten Island, I can say that Lee is very knowledgeable, personable, and has the patience to teach. Definitely a great opportunity for anyone looking to improve.

Finally did it last night, won 11-4. Gonna try it again tonight before moving up to 6. I focus more on playing proper patterns and controlling the cueball, which I'm now doing reliably. I did play in a league-ran tournament over the weekend. I just got moved up to a 7 and it was almost no...

Typically I get off work about 5pm-5:30. I'm about 2 seconds away from the pool hall, so I grab my cues and head straight over after work. I'm there typically until about 11. The room offers a practice pass, unlimited table time for $50/month or $75 for 2 months. Then I head to New York on the...

after a few hours? how in the world do you wear out a glove that fast?

Tried to send a greenie but I need to spread love before I can rep you again. Thank you for the insight, very interesting. I've noticed during matches that I break down most frequently on the 7. I'm gonna take this drill to the practice table and work on it.

I've been working on something for a while now. We're all familiar with the 9/10-ball ghost. It's been suggested to me that I should start at the last 6, then add/subtract balls as necessary. Don't add another ball until you're over 75%. I started at trying to run the last 6, then worked my...

Same here, and I love it too. I figure the medium is a good starting point in figuring out one's preference for whether to move up or down in hardness.

After watching your video, you really need to build a pre-shot routine. one where you start further back from the table and step into the line of the shot. will also help with sighting the shot.

I've had a lot of success with using a snooker-style 4 point stance. I know immediately if any part of my body moves before it's supposed to. Also, straight in shots with the object ball in the center and cue ball on the head/foot string. stop shots are good, I've also used slow rolling them in...

Ki-tech Medium.

Amen to that.

Although I personally have an unfavorable opinion of it, the APA would be a great starting point for you. You'll be able to receive coaching and mentoring, keep track of your progress through matches, and get advice for your practice sessions or other resources on improving, including basic...

Wasn't there a tournament that combined the formats? I remember it being 10-ball Call shot/safe, and each player had something like 1 2-way shot per rack.
