    How about some positive stories about Cuemakers

    I got my last two cues from Joey Bautista (JoeyInCali) and couldn't be happier with the experience and the cues. One a beautiful Bubinga and the last one a gorgeous Brazilian Rosewood. He is as straight up as they come.

    Does anyone have Ronnie Allen on video playing

    "Cherub's face on a devil's body and mind!!!" Perfect. Especially when you added in the incessant funny chatter. Last time I saw him was at Hard Times when he came in with two guys from the Crenshaw area and played the same game where every other shot he shot one handed. 6K posted. Not exactly...

    JB Case too deep

    My misunderstanding. I appreciate you relating your good experience with their cases. I talked with them before reading this and they set my mind at ease. Your explanation and the other fellows picture were what I was looking for and had requested in my post. My pool experiences are now at the...

    JB Case too deep

    Seems this thread was started by someone who didn't love what he got. I have several cases and decided to get a Rugged because of the good things I read about them. I don't buy something new and expect to have to go to a hardware store to have to buy something to make the item function like...

    JB Case too deep

    I didn't order from them to go through any of these solutions. Has anyone received a Rugged that came without this problem? At this point I am calling them tomorrow and questioning them & if not satisfied I am cancelling and calling my credit card company. It is not a lot of money but I got it...

    JB Case too deep

    Man, hated to read that as I have a Rugged on order. Anyone else with the problem? I know there are solutions but with their experience and reputation there should be no solutions needed. Have you contacted them? My experience with Asia on the phone was excellent.

    Are butts constructed using a-joints more prone to warping?

    I wish everyone used your size font.--I'm a blind player & I love it. Never have to use my magnifying glass!!

    SVB aiming vid..................

    I watched the video and heard and saw demonstrated thin cuts being made to the left using the left edge of ferrule, It was inferred that similar thin cuts to the right would be using the right edge of the ferrule, There were three other lines of the ferrule inside the edges that would be used to...

    Geometry: How could a Diamond bank differently than a Brunswick?

    With so many people knowing so much about physics, geometry and all of the intricacies of a pool table I wonder how I have ever made a ball much less run a table. Hat off to you guys! Want to know about all aspects of pool? If you are reading this you are at the right place.

    Is Schmidt's and charlie 626 Legit

    Thank you Bob Jewett. It took someone of your acknowledged expertise to shut up some people who had no business even commenting on John's achievement. I watched John at Hard Times when Jack Cooney was teaching him One Pocket during the day while gambling and they were not cheap lessons. While...

    Rafael Martinez.....??

    As an afterthought Raphael was the 2nd person I ever saw break and then take ball in hand and run 3 racks. The 1st was Efren. The 3rd was Dennis Orcullo when he 1st came over for a IPT qualifier at Hard Times. I had never seen him before and when I asked his name he barely understood me as at...

    Rafael Martinez.....??

    Jay, your comment about bar tables jogged my memory. Sitting at the bar at the old Copper Door with Archie when a Japanese guy sidled up to Archie and started a quiet conversation. A few minutes later I looked over my shoulder and there stood Raphael. When they left a few minutes later I asked...

    Scott Lee is in Fla and travels all over the country--except for So. Calif where I drove him out in frustration. Lol

    The Hal Houle Post

    Thanks! Hadn't read that before. Jives with everything I had been thinking for years. Not content with winning everything he decided he wouldn't be the best until he could outdrive everyone and there went his game. The bulk ruined his flow. His best tournament in my opinion was winning the...

    The Hal Houle Post

    I am familiar with the players from past years and have never respected the underlying anger that seeps into a thread that should be of a positive nature. But there are two camps that are polarized and even after expressing their disagreement they insist on repeating themselves thread after...

    The Hal Houle Post

    I totally agree with the Butch Harmon part. That and bulking up along with the episodes outside of golf events led to his downhill spiral. Even today I would love to see him try to take 10-15 yards off of his driving. Why does this particular topic upset you so much? You are not a user of CTE...
