Comes as a huge shock to me as I didn't even know Dave was sick. A good friend and a great teacher. Dave and I would play for hours, and regardless of the score, Dave would always stop me before I would attempt to kick out of a safety, and ask me "what are you trying to do?" and would then...

Are you sure they haven't been bought out by Apple? :thumbup: dave

Searing.............................

When I read the title, the first thing that really came to mind was patience. I don't think that patience is the most important element in becoming a good or great player, but I think it is often overlooked. Here's my take on patience: I have always felt that pool/billiards has always...

I've seen cycles like this over the years, and it's funny how it runs with a good/bad economy. Right now, it appears that the guys selling cues that need some extra cash are a little more aggresive in their 'bumps' and price dropping. While there are guys that have cues for sale, but they're...

Charlies never worked out. There were a couple of interested parties as far as trying to make a go of it, but it had something to do with the last owner wanting the incoming investors to pick up too much of the back tax tab. It's a bingo hall now. Very sad, as I picked my living location...

I own a Sugartree, and after using Predators, OB, Wes Hunter, Scruggs, and a Josey, I've found that FOR ME, I've found the best hitting/playing combination I can find. I'll never knock a guy that believes a Mosconi Wal-Mart cue is the nuts, just as I would expect guys that aren't into custom...

I think this is close to what you're talking about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ja9y8Lv_A1s dave

In the past year, I've started playing on the 7 footers with leages and tournaments, however I NEVER practice on them. I've always been of the belief that the skills you need to run out on a 9 footer are plenty enough to play on the 7 footers. However, the skills needed to run out on a bar box...

I find that I'm more accurate, I minimize the chances of a skid, and I'm not fighting the CBs natural tendancy to roll when I use follow with just a sprinkle of outside. dave

I used to work with a kid that was a bundle of mouth, laziness, attitude and a temper all wrapped up in one! He got to bragging one day that he used to be an aspiring pool player with the hopes of turning pro one day. He had even claimed thta he'd played in several pro events and beaten world...

Morrison would put you south west of the Denver area, and right down 285 E from where you're at to get to Felt (the old Table Steaks). Head east on 285 from Morrison til you get to Broadway. Head north on Broadway I think 1-2 blocks where you'll see a King Soopers on your left. Turn left just...

Hands down, one of the best players I've ever had my hands on! Jun Shimizu in Japan was selling them as "an unknown American makers cues" and had 15 of them. All 15 of them played the same, and they were all what I consider "Holy Grail" type cues. Very underrated as a player as far as I'm...

I remember way back about 10 years ago, Predator had some of their deflection test results published online, and their tests all showed less deflection with a harder tip and a smaller radius (dime shape). I've always felt that I got less deflection with those two variables. dave

I remember Mike Sigel told me that he NEVER uses more than a 1/2 tip of English on any shot. However, as I watched the action he was getting, I'd have to come to the conclusion that many of us don't exactly know just how much juice we're putting on the CB when in relation to where we strike the...

A wife..........................

I remember playing this goofy nerd of a kid once, you know, the 80's heavy metal black t-shirt, glasses, and acne all wrapped up in one. He wanted the 7 and out and I gave it to him. I won the race to 7 by one game for $50. After losing, he says let's do it again for $100. Again, I win by...

Ok, so the camera shot missing the frame where the cb hits the inside of the pocket satisfies me. That was the reason I couldn't figure the shot, or had it pegged to be a camera trick...............because in the closeup replay, the cb isn't shown hitting the inside of the pocket. Thanks...

Can somebody please explain to me what's going on at :04 and at 1:00 in this video? Some of the shots in this video are trick shots or 'hustle' shots, and he even demonstrates one of them, but for the life of me I can't figure out what's going on with the shot at :04, and then the other shot...

I used to live in Japan, and if your friend is world class talent, it seems to me that Japan has always been very 'friendly' to ANY asian players that are good enough to compete on the world level. Try Adam, Mezz, KeithAndy, USA Sports, ER-Sports (owned by Koreans), COSMO Japan, Alpha Billiards...
