Good question. Was hoping that we would get some replies on this. I remember someone asking Efren how he aims. He supposedly said with the edge. If you think about it, by using the edge, you are never out into space but on a part of the ball. Makes sense to me. However, I would like to...

Has anyone ever had part of the tip fly off on a Samsara tip? I hadn't had the tip too long, when one day while breaking, a piece of the tip went flying, Spent a lot of money on that tip, and was able to salvage what was left, but will never buy another one.

When you are playing the ghost and you miss a shot then stop right there, do not go any further. You need to know why you missed the shot. There can be a whole list of reason, such as not aligning properly, not staying down, jabbing at the cue ball, etc, etc. What you do is set the shot back...

I copied him on this posting. You should hear from him shortly. Thanks Doug

I figured that this might be a little difficult but thought it was worth a shot. I told him he'd be better off trying to find a good GC III or IV but he and his wife liked the looks of a Diamond table. I don't know what his budget is for a table but I guess we'll find out. That's why I'd like...

Yes, regulation size table 4 1/2' X 9'. Dymondwood finish.

Glen, My son should be moving in to his house within 10 to 15 days. He is interested in a used Diamond Pro-Am, rosewood color. Area would be on the ground floor. If you can help, I would like to arrange communications between him and you rather than do this 3-way. Thanks Glen, Doug

Please disregard my post. I received the help I need.

OK Glen, I told my son you would take care of him. When he is ready, I'll give you a shout. Thanks, Doug

Now, this is what I was looking for. He grew up playing on a GCIII. He is looking to hold cost down so he would be looking for a good used table as opposed to new. Mine was from a World 14:1 tournament in the very early 80's (from what I understand) and is in great shape. I had Jay replace...

That is correct. He is close to closing and he will have a table. You can look at this as preparation in advance. Just looking for a name so he knows who to contact when the time comes. Jay set mine up but it's a little far to travel. When he gets the house and finds a table, he'll be...

My son is close to buying a house in the Fairfield, CA area. The house has a room big enough for a table. He grew up on a GCIII. He'll be looking to buy a good used table. I told him I would recommend a Gold Crown or a Diamond as long as he could find one in good condition. I have posted...

My son will be buying a house within 50 miles of San Francisco. There's a house near Fairfield that he and his wife are looking at. There is a room big enough for a table. He called me looking for recommendation. I said I would ask on this site to try and find a mechanic. He also needs to...

I'm right handed and left eye dominant. I got off on a tangent trying to favor my left eye. It basically screwed me up until I went back to aiming with both eyes. I think too much emphasis is placed on this and I agree with you whole heartedly.

In the World Matches held recently, did anyone see those shirts the guys from Poland were wearing? Very nice!

Mike, From all us Maniacs, good luck today.

I always thought it was the pointed end of any shaft, stick, pole, etc, etc that they hung the white flag on.

First, I would like to commend Jayson for a well deserved victory. How he could keep his mind on the game and not his wife is beyond me. Second, I think the final games should have a referee at the table and not sitting in a chair too far away to see what's going on. I know it's up to the...

A lot of good information. I want to thank everyone who has responded so far. I did download Tor's kicking systems about a year ago and his information has helped me immensely. I also have Dead Aim's Kicking Academy and have purchased DVD's from Jimmy Reid and Grady. Dr Dave's website is...

There are numerous diamond and numbering systems. Has anyone ever seen or does anything exists which explains all of the different types in a book along with an explanation of the numbering for that system. Not only are there systems for hitting an object ball on or close to a rail but there...
