Agreeing with OP Buy the OP a case of scotch!!!! With exception to having to purchase something to submit my opinions and perhaps be a contributor to some extent of my own knowledge, what I have learned over the years, etc. all in an effort to just share these things with a "community"; I am...

It's amazing as to how just those 2 little words can make someone's day and the lack of them can break someone's day. 2 very simple words that can mean the world to someone regardless of who they are in spite of who they represent/sponsor/or give as a gift. Thank you JAM for opening a very...

Thank you to all of you who provided intelligent responses in regards to it. As soon as I can, I will post photos of it (not for bragging rights) as this is my first acquisition of a custom cuemaker's cue and not having any familiarity with it, it helps to know what I've gotten myself into. I...

The local room near me has a GC copy. From the aesthetic stand point and without looking at every nook and cranny, it appears to be a GC in every manner of speaking. I won't mention the name of the co. that produced this but the scuttlebutt I get is that Brunswick ended up suing that co. and...

I just recently acquired a wrapless Paul Mottey butt from a good freind. It has what appears to be a Predator style 12 mm shaft with what appears to be a Low Deflection ferrule. Can't attest to the fact if the ferrule is LD or not as I have no experience with a short ferrule. @ 18 oz. I've...

Really Like Mine I actually have one of them. Overall, I love the forward weight in it and really don't have to pound the CB to get it to work. (makes mental note to self to not pound CB) Considering what I've previously had, I get relatively low deflection. I knew the moment I put one in my...

Sadly, 14.1 doesn't exist much if any here in Atlanta. There's a guy on my side of town that has been trying to get a league started but so far it hasn't taken root. I've mentioned to him that I would certainly be interested in getting involved if it were to come about. Johnny's place is a 50...

It may be possible that since you are wanting to join this late in the year, there may be a possibility that the LO may pro-rate your membership fee. When I first joined, I joined late and they did pro-rate it but as soon as Jan. 1 rolled around, I had to pay the full $25 membership. I dropped...

I'll acknowledge that over thinking it is part of the problem but I don't know how to under think it. I've tried and tried to eliminate any and all thought process and just stay fast and loose. So far, that's been unsuccessful. I know that when I play World Standard that I can run 8 and still...

Talisman XX Hard for me. My break cue is 23.5 oz so I don't have to lean on it to open a rack. Control is good when I don't take it for granted. Haven't tried anything else just yet but may do so when it's time to re-tip.

Pushout, I totally agree that I doubt it will take off in a bar box room and since you have no room there to play it in, there still may be a way to get you and your friends involved in it on an official level if you are interested until a room can open up for you all. It was intro'd to me and...

Mr. Lee, Your PM box is full and I am unable to send you one.

Pushout, To my knowledge, I don't think it is in your area as well. I do know all too well the challenge of getting league members to try anything new but fortunately there are some here that are tired of the same old 8 ball and 9 ball formats and actually looked forward to something new. As...

It was introduced to me in Jan. of this year by a very good friend of mine in Bama. For several months I played it at a local friends residence here (which was fine with the powers of 6 Pocket) until I could make the right connection here in a pool room. Once I introduced it to the local room I...

One Bump Just one bump for this topic. Don't be shy.:D

Long reply Mr. Jewett, The hardness of the shots except for just a few really don't seem to be much of an issue. Spot shots typically range about 70-80% for me if I'm in decent stroke. Cribbage requires a smaller area for position on the crib ball but I do seem to struggle with the 9 ball...

Talsiman XX Hard for me. I don't like the sound or the feel of the phenolics. Sounds as if I miscue even if I don't actually miscue but more importantly they just feel weird to me.

Around 9 Ball. It doesn't matter if I play APA 9 ball or world standard 9 ball recreationally, I just can't seem to get into this game. I struggle badly with it and can't seem to figure out why. I like to be diverse and play all different types of games but my stronger suits are 8 ball...

Good afternoon. Just wondering if any forum members here have any experience with this new league?
