    cue weight sos

    Take 3 bowls. Fill one with warm water, one with cold water and the last one with room temperature water. Put one hand in the warm bowl, the other one in the cold bowl and after a few seconds put both hands in the room temperature bowl. What are you feeling? Julian

    Breakdown of Earl Strickland Shot

    The CB will curve around the OB on a no spin cut shot. Please allow me to elaborate. From a physics perspective, the newtonian law of action and reaction applies. When the CB strikes the OB, the OB responds with an equal and opposite force. But the CB still has forward momentum and the result of...

    Breakdown of Earl Strickland Shot

    You are either blind or you like to argue [emoji28] The tangent line is an approximation, it will not travel exactly on the tangent depending on speed and spin. If you want to get technical, the CB does not travel straight on *any* cut shot, it curves right after impact. Julian

    Breakdown of Earl Strickland Shot

    It's normal for the CB to have some forward momentum until the backspin catches, especially that it's a cut and not a direct hit. That's why drawing near the side pocket and not scratching is tricky. It also depends on the cloth type and condition, humidity... Julian

    purex shafts

    That statement is a bit misleading. A better way to put it is that Players (PureX), Lucasi and other brands are made in the same factory in China. Julian

    purex shafts

    First of all, I am not a fan of Predator. I think they are way overpriced and I heard over and over again from repairmen that they are cheaply made, except for the Revo that does have things going on for it. PureX seems solid and is somewhat low deflection, but has more deflection than the 314...

    Skip Maloney's coverage of Brittany Bryant's winning of the WPBA Blue Emu open.

    I was imposed a shot clock before in the same conditions. I didn't take it personally - same rules apply to both competitors. I won that match. I really don't see any issue there. Julian

    PNS Glove Review

    From what I can tell no one has disagreed with the obvious design flaws that I listed. The arguments that I heard are "I like it" and "it's good for the money" which are extremely subjective. Personally I would rather spend $20 on a thoughtfully made glove than $10 on this one. Julian

    Game That Teaches The Most Skills?

    I think 10 ball. It's call shot, an accidental pot can get you in trouble and there are a good number of balls on the table. Around here all money games are 10-ball. Julian

    PNS Glove Review

    These gloves are recommended on a couple of threads in here and I ordered a pair, but I do NOT recommend it after seeing it in person. These details are not obvious in the pictures: - The topside is lycra, the underside is mesh. That means they can only be used used with an open bridge; with a...
