    Benefits of Cleaning the Garage

    I'd been looking for these 2 bad boys since they had been spoken about some time ago of the forum. I knew I had them, and that they were in good condition, I just didn't know where they were. Went cleaning the garage today and found them among work books from my last job. That's about...

    tips on dealing with haters?

    As I sat here thinking about how much I enjoyed responding to the OP and how much I smiled when I've seen there's a new response (not the typical response I have with most threads here, lol) the same thought occurred to me. Great minds? -Z-

    ...

    C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! ! ! That is a stunning cue/shaft combination. I think you're correct about what the future is going to look like wrt the appearance of cue sticks. I noticed that at SBE few if any of the Pros were sporting ornate cue sticks. Almost all of them were using...

    tips on dealing with haters?

    SO let me get this straight, you describe your self as semi-pro and you're playing a bunch of bar patrons on a bar box, dominating it regularly, and you need advice to handle the haters? QUESTION: why not play & dominate at an Elementary that has a Pool table school instead? Oh wait...

    How does the fencing law work?

    Whoops, OK, not the same "fencing" subject I thought this thread was going to be about. I was thinking maybe the BCA had some rules about shooting Pool with a foil or that Predator was now making a Carbon-fiber fencing foil, LOL Seriously though, any crime involving anything that went...

    Is this a Brunswick???

    I am curious to see how people respond to this.

    Good question. In some cases one could commit a foul on purpose for strategic reasons and they take the penalty, that's not cheating. Other than that unless it is mutually agreed upon by all the parties playing the game (like a Mulligan in golf) I say, yes, it's cheating. If the game is...

    Who makes the nicest "briefcase" style pool cue case?

    One of my first cases was a "Briefcase style" cue case that was done in an ATA style. It was rock solid in terms of protecting the cue & was very secure because it had locks. It looked like it was housing either a musical instrument or some electronic rack mount gear. Many ATA case...

    Who makes the nicest "briefcase" style pool cue case?

    I know you asked about the "Briefcase" style of Pool cue cases, but... I'm a huge fan of Whitten cases. www.whittencases.com I really like how each cloth lined tube is built size specific for either a shaft or a butt. While I like & respect JB cases, I'm not a fan of the sack/sleeping bag...

    Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Recovery & Shooting Pool

    I missed this suggestion the 1st time around. I read about the Vitamin B6 elsewhere, tried it, and it worked like a miracle. I didn't buy a 2nd bottle and now the CTS symptoms are back. I was taking only 50mg, but I'm going to up it to 100mg. It's a little late, but thank you so much...

    Question on discussing pros

    IMHO, there's nothing wrong with comments about the performance of a Pro, as long as they are reasonably objective, reasonably accurate, not insulting and not personal attacks. Here's a prime example of what's completely unacceptable: I can't even begin to imagine what sort of tortured soul...

    Private Pro Lessons Waterbury, CT

    I'm just feeling this out. When I was at SBE, I explored getting one of several Pros to conduct private lessons and/or group lessons in a small suburb just outside Waterbury, CT. I have a private, spacious, comfy office with an immaculate GC III, Simonis Cloth & Pro-cut pockets. I...
