Cue ball joints. My DZ cue (Bob Dzuricky) has a cue ball joint. Very white and very polished. I don't know if that would be phenolic or what. He did say it was an old cue ball. Plays as good as anything else. The wood HOLLY is very white and not an expensive exotic wood. Check out Bobs...

Winning Something that has served me well thru the years in regards to playing people you are supposed to beat. Never be happy to play someone because of their lesser ability. Thinking all you need to do is hang around, play so so and the win will come. Play everyone as if they were a world...

Benyays Don't forget to get your gf some benyas. Donut thing covered in powered sugar.

4 or 5 hour game? Four hour game? Never seen that even with six people. When we were kids we played $1 game and dime hickeys! Don't laugh, we were kids and a dollar would buy five gallons of gas. Never saw a woman enter the pool hall (1964) but they would tap on the glass an hubby would go...

Okie response. Yes, different rules at AAA compared to Chesters. And if that isn't enough they use the snooker at AAA and pool balls at Chesters. Better players by far at Chesters but too much smoke for me. Chesters wins out with great food, beer, cards, dominoes and six Diamond bbs for league...

Old timers? Hey, I resemble that remark. LOL. Yes it is a geezer game but we have several young whippersnappers who mix it up with us also. Now even on that bigger table I would pass on the eight player thing. I need some room for some of my fancier shots! LOL. Golf is quite like tubule, that...

Back in the mid sixties when I first started playing the only games were snooker and golf. The two halls downtown only had snooker tables. One may have had one pool table but it got no play. We always played golf with snooker balls probably because that's all the balls there were. Now I see one...

Ganbling As Art Linkletter used to say (people are funny). Gambling is personal. $1,5, 100, doesn't really matter. Some people don't like to hand people money. I don't consider myself a gambler on the pool table, but I assure you after forty something years of playing I am still in the black...

Handspan The old handspan (moving the cue any direction the width of your handspan) is a great spot. Could be every shot or a certain amount of times per game or match. You dont hook yourself and your opp can't hook you! Out of line? Handspan gets you back in line or off the rail. In a match...

Bad hit. I guess the commentators also fell asleep! Saw Tony play here in OKC. when he was very young. Incredible then and now. Awesome match, good quality stream and FREE!

Playing smart Good stuff. Depends who you are playing for sure. The long rail half ball hit is the easiest and should of course be practiced. For the short rail I like to go for the bank but with speed for leaving the eight on mid rail. Tough but man I hate to sell out while playing leave...

Wow! Good stuff, especially at your age. I think with your skills and more film and of course time, you could eliminate the props. More impressive without the helpers. I know it's trick shots but personally I like shots that could actually be used in a game. I also hope you are also working on...

That's a deal! That's a smokin deal. Hats off to you sir. Jamaica Joes, Midwest City, Ok. special is LUNCH ( burger fries and soda) and all day table time till 6 pm. $11 . ELEVEN DOLLARS!!! 3 nine ft. diamonds, about 10 Diamond bb, 1 GC and 1 valley. Burgers are great. Can't stay and play till...

Thanks Mr. Stroud Off thread, but thanks for coming to Jamaica Joes and playing and finishing strong. Thanks for taking time to talk to people you didn't know from Adam! Watched your match with Joey and really enjoyed that. You play great. Next time I will have the nerve to ask you to hit some...

Tres ball Maybe the racking is a regional thing but have never seen three ball racked any way but straight in a row. With this rack I hit a hard stop shot and the balls should come back hitting the cue and move sideways. The greatest gambling game for bangers who normally won't gamble cause...

Doesn't seem to be a results category. Anyone know of any of the results from Olathe, Kansas. Thanks.

Tennis? I had this book years ago and probably loaned it out. Just bought another copy not long ago. Two hour read if you speed read through the forehand and backhand tennis stuff! LOL. $15 Barnes and Noble. How can you go wrong? The physical game comes slowly but your mental game can...

Chop chop! Thanks Nat. Great fun, wish I'd gone further but heh at least we tried. Don't understand the guys that say they can't beat the big guns. Certainly can't beat em if you don't try! It's the regular joes that make these tournaments possible.

Double Dipper? Pretty sure Chip must have double dipped someone as Joey beat him earlier. Great guy and very personable. He must have watched videos of Tony Drago and Rodney Morris growing up cause that's how he plays! It was great to see James Walden getting back in action and Bill Stroud...
