    Try this again, my PLANS for straightening out Professional Pool.the

    any sport needs sponsors, and sponsors only go where the most eyes or ears are. and in pool, its only the equipment manufacturers who can sponsor them, and theyre usually small companies with limited means. when was the last time Brunswick sponsored a tournament? late 80s, early 90s? are they...

    Any jean balukas matches against men or even complete matches in the womens tour?

    YouTube is short on her videos, theres a couple of her as a child and two or three short pieces of matches. from the short videos I saw you can tell her stroke is above and beyond any other female pro, she was definitely in par with the male competition of her time.

    havent played in three years almost four

    I see your point, but Im seeing them and thinking of them much easier. a long break and not being mad at myself for being a shit player might have helped

    havent played in three years almost four

    I watch pro matches all the time. mainly Strickland, reyes, SVB, Shaw, feijen. im weird about watching pros, if I don't like their stroke or pre shot routine I cant watch them. I guess its an OCD thing but for example, Joshua filler, the current world N1, I cant stand the way he walks around and...

    Hightower Cue for Jean

    I hate inlays and floating points, but this cue has a clear vision and its native American, a very respectful tribute to native American culture. from the color choices to the simple yet complex design. these are the types of cues that shows the makers artistic credibility. no extra frills for...

    Cuetec Cues

    I sold off all my fancy shit and use a cuetec with r360 shaft. love it. the tip it comes with sucks bc I hate laminated tips but I leave it in the trunk of my weakly sealed car and it hasn't warped yet. best part? I don't worry about it getting banged up or scratched or whatever else like I did...

    havent played in three years almost four

    I couldn't agree more, my game needs a lot of work, im just kinda pissed at myself for wasting years bc im finally seeing myself actually improve and I honestly thought I was just a shot maker and I reached my potential where as now im having fun even when I miss bc I know what I did wrong.

    Fierce, beautifully written advocacy of Straight Pool as THE quintessential pool game

    Ive seen straight played by OGs, and the artistry in the game is their decision making on which ball they make and they way they maneuver a ball an inch over to get just the right angle for the next shot or a shot 6 balls later, when a game is played right be it straight, rotation, 8 ball, 9...

    havent played in three years almost four

    and after 6 or seven days of practice im running 10 ball racks on a ten footer and tight pocket table. im seeing better options and routes, ive basically improved and im shooting like a B+ from a C+. how is this possible? I was never useless on the table, I just only played once a week for maybe...

    Using english to much

    im an immigrant, I had to learn English and it wasn't always easy, so I say forget that old *****. Ill use my English bc I earned it. as far as pool goes, yeah, the old timers got a point. everyone says that you should learn to run racks with natural position, as it also teaches you the right...

    Jean Balukas's Hall of Fame Billiards is closing this weekend, Brooklyn NY

    20k square footage in Brooklyn is a lot of property, theyre either getting a good chunk of change for it that table time would never bring or maybe business is dead or jean is just tired and wants to retire. my guess, they'll bring it down and put up apartments with a store front that will...
