    It's Taken Me 1 Year To Write About This; What Happened To Me At Last Year's SBX

    Great post. It's funny how we all have preconceived notions of the people we are getting ready to play. Sometimes they are right and sometimes they couldn't be more wrong. It really says something about your character that you were able to take away something positive from this experience. Good...

    Lou wants more

    I just hope this doesn't turn into a excuse not to play. Example: Lou wants more, JB says no so Lou uses it as a ultimatum not to play. I'm not saying that is the case, I'm just considering the angles.

    Self policing the forum-Good or bad?

    I guess I fall into the category of "Eh- whatever" but knock yourself out. It wont bother me if you want to be the Barney Fife the forums. I'll continue to do my best to try and follow the rules. I got to say ,though, this thread reminded me of this;

    I miss the days when a persons reputation alone was enough to keep him honest. Hope you get it worked out.

    Fused discs and playing pool

    I wanted to say thanks to everyone for your comments and PM's. It really helps to talk to some people who have been down this road before. I am going to see another specialist tomorrow but unless he sees something the others didn't I will probably be postponing the surgery for now. I have swore...

    Golf & pool.

    I disagree. You can be nervous to the point where your hands shake and play football just fine, where as if your playing pool and your hands shake then your in trouble. This is why I answered golf. Golf is more forgiving when it comes to tremors.

    I agree. BTW has anyone in Missouri had this done and recommend a particular surgeon?

    Fused discs and playing pool

    Yeah, this is whats really weighing on me right now. The fact that it's permanent and could be worse off. As it is right now I can handle the pain. I even quit taking my pain meds because I am concerned about my liver after 6 years of taking them. I am setting up a appointment with a...

    How do you guys aim while jumping?

    When I line up to make any shot, I visualize the shot line in my head and position my stance/body accordingly. After that it makes little difference if its a jump shot, masse shot or a regular shot. The only difference would be my grip and arm position.

    Dogs and Friends

    Wow, this story really hits home for me. My dog is a big part of my life. I am a little ashamed to say that I like my dog more that I care for most people (with my family being the exception) My dog has always been there for me no matter what. He is a constant in my life that I know I can...

    Fused discs and playing pool

    So I got back from the doctors visit today and had some bad news. He wants me to have my lower back fused, lumbar region, L5 L4 and possibly L3. He tells me I have severe arthritis and there is excess pressure being put on my spinal cord. I am going to seek a 2nd opinion and I don't want to...

    How can I increase focus and stay sharper longer?

    Well, if there is anything I can ever help you with don't hesitate to ask. I first picked up a cue and fell in love with the game at a low point in my life too. It was a great way for me to get through a tuff time. Chris

    Break Speed App

    I bought it. It works good. It's a neat toy. I hardly ever use it anymore, but it's handy when I feel the need. Bottom line, it's 5 bucks which is worth it to me.

    I would expect Mezz cues to have a few. Edit: also check Crown cues.

    How can I increase focus and stay sharper longer?

    Well, I'm no poster child for fitness, I'm 6'2" and 225 lbs. I need to do better. Just keep trying and it will get better. And by the way, thank you for your service. None of us would have the freedoms we enjoy without people like you.

    How can I increase focus and stay sharper longer?

    5 hour energy, at least that's what the commercial says! Honestly though, maybe one of the best things you can do to help yourself out is get on a healthy diet and exercise program. You will find that if you are in shape and eating right that your energy level will be higher and your focus will...

    Elephant ear skin wrap

    I wont get into the morality of this subject but I do have something to add pertaining to using elephant ear as a wrap. One of the Cuemakers I have talked with in the past says he discourages it because the wrap groove that is made to accommodate the elephant ear leather is deeper due the the...

    Guinness World Record and the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

    Make A Wish is such a great program. I used to help run a annual tournament whos proceeds would go directly to the MWF. If you ever get a chance to be a part of an experience involved with the foundation, do it. You wont regret it at all. They have such a impact on a kids life. This is one of...
