    you get what you pay for... SAYS WHO?

    Well damn it NBS8. Just as I really getting used to the Mottey with the new shaft from Sly, you gotta come up with this kind of thought. LOL. Guess I'll have to just use that $19 Wilson in my case that I typically use as a bridge cue.

    Schmelke Full splice 8 pointer, 2 shafts ebony/curly/coco

    Great deal on this cue! I've hit it a few times myself. Great feel to it. Won't find another one like it. Seller is a real good friend and is offering for less than what he paid for it.

    Shaft from Leon Sly-Long Post

    I just recently had Mr. Leon Sly make a shaft for a Uni-Loc Mottey handle I have. Initially, Mr. Sly stated that it would take approx. 5-6 weeks to complete as he was working on other cue orders at that time. Mr. Sly called me on the19th and stated that the shaft was ready and made to my specs...

    It it uptight to be worried about teams buying each other drinks in league?

    I don't see anything wrong with sound one shot with a friendly opponent just for fun. But after that, it's time for the business at hand. Play the match. After the match, they can slam as many as they want. With that being said, league play should be a fun thing. But there is a time during...

    Looking for feedback & sorry it's long

    DC6P, I say go for it. I think if it does turn out to be successful, sponsorship will follow. I think the biggest question is what do the pros who have already been exposed to 6 Pocket truly think of the game. They need to be honest in their assessments. I know that some have been exposed to...

    I am Retired

    Congrats Wedge. Maybe some day, I'll get an opportunity to have an endless weekend. Sounds like some of us in MD need to take you out to the pool rooms for some excursions.

    Looking for feedback & sorry it's long

    I think trying to use the business model of golf is a good idea. I think it could be done with the right connections. Both inside and outside the pool world. The key to any successful venture is finding the right model for it and then put in all the fort and work to make it succeed. What...

    Offline billiard retail stores in the US - still present?

    A brick and mortar store in Loganville, GA. This photos were taken around Christmas 2012. Several tables are also set up for the public to play and pay by the hour. I spent a lot of hours playing in there before I got relocated to DC. They do have a web presence that is rapidly growing...

    In a funk

    If you don't have one, invest in a cam corder. I just recently invested a newer model than my old one. I shot about 2 hours of vid. Before going out today to play and practice, I reviewed the first half hour of vid, I noticed 3 flaws that I had somehow picked up over time that I normally...

    How do you carry a Magic Rack in your cue case?

    Other than going to league, I carry a gym bag that has various accessories I don't like to be without when I practice or casually play. My MR's stay in the bag in their ziploc bag they came in unless I am using them

    Saying good bye to an old friend...VALOR

    I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know how hard it is to go through this. In the past 3 years, the wife and I have lost 4 of 5. The most recent one was three weeks ago. Cutaneous Lymphoma. A rarity for Poms but it does occur occasionally. After much consideration and research, chemo would...

    Thoughts from the local tour stop

    Great job on the review there buddy. Wish I could have made it over to see it. Felt fortunate just be able to catch about an hour and half of the stream this weekend. A little in the busy side. Ozzy does a fantastic job at running the tour. Keeps things running as smooth as it can get. I do...

    T.O.I by randyg

    Thank you CJ. I'll try to do a particular diagram on an occasion a couple of weeks ago and e-mail it to you. Actually, I'll do two. One of which will show the table lay out before I started shooting. The other will show and explain the pattern I played to only end up screwing myself over and my...

    T.O.I by randyg

    I've been using it a while and I seem to have these same issue while playing 8 ball. Very few problems with the rotation games since they allow one to get the stroke out a little better. Just can't seem to get it to work too well at 8 ball.

    How much time should be spent on a specific drill?

    LOL Scott. Yes but evidently I may have misinterpreted that a little. Then in my own stubbornness kept forcing myself to press on more times than what was probably necessary. LOL

    How much time should be spent on a specific drill?

    Wish someone had told me that a long time ago. I don't mind doing drills but I've always thought a person had to keep plugging away but it's that plugging away that keeps me from working drills. There have been times when I would spend 2-3 hours on one drill, get mad enough to snap my cue...
