I have yet to find the start time for the tournament match play or an actual link on POV Pool for the stream anywhere. USBA.net has a link to a practice session that is offline. POV Pool has...

    FS: Early 70’s Richard Black w/Szambotti Prong

    I am no cue expert. My claim that it is a Szam Forearm is based on the comments that Joe Van made from pics of the same cue pictured above in this thread from 2013: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?p=4397621#post4397621. I didn't even know what a Gus Prong was at the time. All I...

    FS: Early 70’s Richard Black w/Szambotti Prong

    ***SOLD*** Richard made this cue for me in 1973 while I was going to the University of Houston. At that time, his shop was located in his garage in a Houston suburb. The cue is constructed from bird’s eye maple and ebony with ivory dots. If you look closely in the 4th image, you will see a...

    How would you play this position???

    Mr Caudron is capable of making just about any shot he wants. However, for the cash, I think that he would play this shot as pictured below. The cue ball is struck with middle right english aimed at the right side of the yellow ball. You can see him making this shot very consistently in just...

    help me with sapnish translation please

    It causes the cue ball to get to the 1st rail sooner (compared to a stroke with follow thru) and thereby shortens the path of the cue ball.

    help me with sapnish translation please

    That would be a check stroke that is being described, a stroke without follow thru.

    Carom Cafe with Royal Pro

    Nice Steve, the most prestigious room in the USA would be a real feather in your Royal Pro cap. :-) Might the new cloth be installed on all tables in time for the Verhoeven open?

    2015 Verhoeven Open - dates, entrants and flyer

    Is there an admission charge to be a spectator at this tournament? It looks like seating for spectators might be limited from the videos and photos I have seen of Carom Cafe.

    Help needed on Longoni cue choice

    Scott, both of the cues are fantastic. The Sultan with the turquoise inlays on the black Nox wood is VERY striking and different from cues that I have seen. The Masai is stunning with beautiful detail. I love the intricacy of its design and the wonderful array of woods used in its construction...

    Silicone rubber carom grips

    I ordered 2 IBS transparent silicone grips from Yura and tried one out yesterday. I was very pleased to see that the weight is the same as the Hanbat and Ball Teck grips weighing only 14 grams. The grip is fairly transparent with an appearance similar to frosted glass as you can see in the...

    Silicone rubber carom grips

    Thanks for your reply. I would be glad to try either the Hanbat or Ball Teck grips. The Kozoom Store is the only place I have seen either of them. I would prefer to buy from somewhere in the USA if possible. Where did you purchase yours?
