Not all shafts and pins are created equal. Some variances in the threads and depths exist.

You should have a separate break cloth put on when you break, then swap it to the playing cloth when in the middle of the game. If you put some quick release rails on, won't take too long to change over. Just need a photo of the table to you place the balls in the correct positions afterwards.

Best tip to use, with ANY shaft, is the one you like. The shafts that the vendor wants to use a pad with, include a pad, so keep the pad if you are changing tips.

I have a pretty decent collection of shafts and cues I mess around with, just never sold many of them when I got something new. But my go-do setup is maybe 2 different shafts and my main custom butt. I do play around with several cues when just playing with friends, and when I travel. I can't...

Don't they have a thing where deliberate fouls are not allowed? Such as hitting the opponent's ball and giving up ball in hand. Under normal pool rules those are OK when done correctly with a legal stroke. I just don't see the need for yet another different ruleset. It's just branding like...

The keilwood shafts I got from a maker near me uses small screws in the shaft to increase the weight.

I don't see a pro pool player as anything but a skill level title, 750 Fargo and up is about the standard. Without an actual organization, there is no other way to gauge it. If the PBT was around still, then I would say a Pro is someone that was a member of the PBT and played in their events...

If you have the space, don't see why not. I played on one several times, it was manageable, but definitely tougher, especially for me being shorter.

Don't they have some match limit time and non-standard rules for fouls and safeties?

Looks identical to the Ned Morris I had. Exactly the same colors and design in the rings.

Leagues are basically that, many teams have a "home room" they play out of. I have been trying to do a inter-league tournament for a while, where each league in the area puts their top 3/4/5 people up, but while people think it's a good and fun no-one has been able to arrange it.

Reminds me of what pickleball is to tennis. I like don't like pool with gimmicks and flashy lights.

This is a foul that is often overlooked or not known as a foul to a lot of players. Similar to touching a moving cueball (seen more now with the internet and more anal officiating), many players would grab a cueball if they see it not going towards a pocket, with the opponent not saying a word...

The design on the buttsleve look very Jossy. If I was only shown this design, Joss would be my first guess.

I have tried random waxes, including the fancy ceramic car waxes, never had issues with it being sticky if you wipe it off properly. One funny thing with wax, I tried some on a good carbon fiber shaft, it made it so slick I had to wipe it all off because it felt un-natural sliding through my...

Sure it's not always possible to prove it. Same as other methods of cheating. It's often easy to break any rule if one does not care about the rules, other people or the consequences. Carjackers, home break-ins, sandbaggers in pool, welfare cheats, all just different levels of immoral...

Can't tell if you are joking or not, coaching rules are set by the league or tournament. None I know of allow this type of thing. In fact, some have started to disallow use of headphones while playing, maybe not for coaching reasons, but to make sure the player is not oblivious to the opponent...

I sense... sarcasm... yes, sarcasm is here in the room.

Nope, just an "oops", unless as Dr Dave said, if the miscue was intentional. Then it's just a similar foul as any illegal stroke, say lifting up on the cueball instead of shooting in a forward motion. There have been many discussions over the years if some miscues should be seen as a foul...

I never thought of SBE as a place to meet up with religious people LOL But they do have a great jerky vendor I love visiting when there.
