    Aramith and Velocity Cloth

    Your joking right? The Brunswick cloth is called Centennial, of course. But I'm pretty sure it's Championship Tour edition with Teflon added to the weave. I figured everyone here in this section would know that, so I didn't mention that, in regards to the original question, when talking about...

    Aramith and Velocity Cloth

    just an observation ....I've found the 860 Simonis to last longer with say 2 to 3 hrs. of play per day than the velocity does for sure. With that amount of play the Simonis is still acceptable after a years play, where the Velocity is gone in about 7-months. Also, the object ball throws less on...

    If not for The Color of Money.....

    a thought on this subject I sold my personal, Balabushka, playing cue, in July of 85 for $1250. to a friend, pool room owner, and traveling companion. My cue had 2 original Buska shafts, 2 shafts made by Billy Stroud, and 2 shafts made by Gus Szamboti, along with a letter of authenticity from...

    What happened to David Maddux?

    The weather channel radio David was at Derby City and did some 1-pocket and bank matches this year. He got his start in broadcasting with Accu-Stats and later became a professional broadcaster with the weather channel around Atlanta. You have good taste in your choices for a commentator, David...

    For those of you that remember the 80's...

    "always did, always will!!!" "Ah yes, I hear that, the sweet ring of truth!" ...there have always been people that play "WIDE OPEN." See how many players from that era, that tried to give and out-run ridiculous spots had any money left at the end of the day? Answer, NONE! (A super money player...

    Wizard tips

    Good choice! These are excellent choice of tips. They're a lot like old Moori II's and seem to be pretty consistent one tip to another. I have put these tips on quite a few cue's for solid shortstop level players and the response is usually that they like the Wizard Medium tip a lot. :thumbup2:

    Rumors about the WPBA

    Issue clarity I wholeheartedly agree with this statement, the WPBA is good for the sport of pool over-all! It's really a shame about the recording issue. However, I can see good reason for the WPBA Tour executives "NOT" wanting their top female players on video, playing the best men on the...

    Rumors about the WPBA

    Well-----not exactly It was sometime around 2004 or 2005 The Black widow, Jeannette Lee, was not allowed to be recorded by appearing on the ACCU-STATS T.V. table at the Derby City Classic. She was scheduled to play 1-pocket against Dave Matlock on the T.V. table, but the WPBA officials didn't...

    Women at this year's U.S. Open...surprised.

    ...please believe me when I tell you, the Ladies wanted their own purse to compete for and were very happy that the men were competing in their division back in the late 80's and into early 91 or whatever. From the women that I talked with this year, they were happy Barry chose to invite them...

    Immonen 11 Klatt 4

    Here you go This year the filming was being sent to E.S.P.N. in the East, everyday. So we we're concentrating on getting the live recording as perfect as we could.

    Immonen 11 Klatt 4

    Accu-Stats match score / approximate After the match on Friday night, Pat said over the headsets, "that the Accu-Stats for that match would be somewhere around Klatt=.1000/Immonen=.985." Danny D. said, and just about everyone agreed with him, that "this match was the best pool we'd ever...

    Gerda likes VEPS!!!

    Very nice, I just watched the except from Disc 3 on key balls. That is exactly what I think is a great way to teach "proper" position play for 8-ball. Sure hope pool enthusiasts find this library, "it would certainly be a great benefit to up and comers!"

    Gerda likes VEPS!!!

    .... I was referring to the way you cross the table from angle, go up and down, and go around the table. How to set up the angles that best provide strong routes for these types of shot possibilities. The pattern "type of play" that works best for these 2 games is something accomplished players...

    US Open rumor?

    B.S., "would you really want the scoop?" After 10 pages of nothing, I wonder why those "who are in the know" seem to be so intimidated by someone, that they just don't let the rest of the pool world know, "that just like in the real world, people fight over debts, royalties, and money owed!"...

    Champion tips

    Champions, originals or copies? ...I played with them and I always kept them on hand. In fact, I think I have about a dozen of them still. Their characteristics are best exemplified on ivory ferrules, hence the fiber pad underneath them. On the bottom of the fiber pad they have an imprint...

    Eliminating luck, US Open 9-Ball

    What about this, rack your own, 2 minute time limit, (you don't get the balls racked in 2 minutes, lose of game) make the nine in the top two pockets it spots up. From here the learning curve on how the gaps effects the ball paths after the break will become obvious to every one and the current...

    I may have a solution to the racking problems!

    "Really, I mean your not kidding?" ....just want to make sure what I'm reading here,"the break isn't that important?" Among top pro's, what is it that you think makes the difference playing 9-ball? The break is an advantage, if you've done your due diligence and learned, always! It's the first...
