I've considered that as a possibility also, but quickly discounted it because you can very firmly hit the shot and still pull up on your follow through, and the ball still reacts like Lee said. Conversely, you can stroke the shot with a smooth accelerated follow through, hit it like shit ...

I happened across a video on youtube, I'm sure all you guys have seen it a million times, but never the less, in seeing it I had a question. At about 7:30 into the video he talks about what happens if you don't stroke completely through the shot. It comes up short. This is absolutely true...

Unfortunate. Some thoughts I had in case you want to sue him. 1. Was your friend with you when you packed and sent both items? Also, do you have a shipping receipt? The receipt alone doesn't prove what was sent however. So you would want the shipping receipt, and some means of confirming...

I didn't see or hear what you're referring to, but it brought to mind that ridiculous, IMO finger snapping. Everybody has their thing I guess. :shrug: :smile:

Each cc must be a bit different , bank of america master card wont let you access the extra from anumber that was used once... unless they changed that is. I'm going to check again.

I have a question. You list your location as "in the motel near your pool hall." What the heck is that supposed to mean? Why would you write that? Maybe I'm old fashioned but the way I read that, you cheapen yourself.

These guys are in such a rush that they're shooting at the same time. Ya'd think they were going to a fire or something.

I agree with the others, not only will the savings be minimal, (under 100 bucks ) but the wear factor will make up the difference. Just not worth cutting corners IMO. Get the Simonis. I think Simonis 860 for a 9 foot table is about 330 according to Ozone Billiards. If you shop you will do...

This is a good point. Look into something called virtual credit card. Your credit card company may offer it. Virtual Credit Card is a security function and benefit offered by lots of CC companies. You log onto your banks website, access your account, find the security link, and then whatever...

Its all relative, you watch your friend run a few balls, which you can respond to likewise. They watch their opponents run a few racks, which they also can respond to likewise. Don't think of them viewing racks being run from your perspective of being used to seeing balls being run.

LMAO .... That was very funny!

Ok , you figured on some thrashing .... I'll do some thrashing ..... :D One word ..... Paragraphs! Here's what it looked like ...... Ok so there is abviously gonna be a big thrashing here against me but I really don't care. I just don't understand how pool players devote all there time to...

There are plenty of sources available here, and on youtube if you search to help you make a ball cleaner with a plastic bucket and they work great. I made one and it worked for 2 years before the motor on the buffer died. When I tried to replace the buffer, I found that the design changed on...

It's not needed for the shot making specifically in any game. But, in rotation games where you are commonly traveling from one end of the table to the other, it's needed to gain speed off the rails.

I enjoy straight pool and one pocket. Both are games that require softer hits on the OB than rotation games and therefore result in less squirt / deflection on the CB than one would notice firing a ball firmly. That being said, I still see no reason (for the most part) to use english, (left /...

Wow, how could I forget the blacklight... I musta got some bad acid.

How about a different color for each rail segment, and tie die the bed cloth. Then use those pastel colored balls. Might as well put a different colored chalk on each rail too. :) Or, to save time, in the 60s we would just drop some acid and call it a day. :thumbup:

News flash. That's not pool you're playing. Those are little toy bar tables for people who need something to do while they drink. Pool rooms with real pool tables are fading away.

Good point, maybe we should get rid of the lit club, chess club, and arts & crafts too while we're at it. That is the most idiotic thing I've heard so far in this conversation. So you believe that if a kid plays pool, he or she won't play or participate in any other activity? How the hell do...
