Like I said, no banks for me. 14.1 or one-hole would be best for me, then maybe 8-ball. Rotation games are my weak point because I can't break good (unless we were to use a racking template, then my 9-ball break is passable), but I'm willing to give it a good go. I have no idea when the movie...

I think it referred to the comments made by RJ about the nature of the relationship between Fran Crimi and Scott Lee. I don't think there is anything approaching hatred going on, but professionally speaking, they have clashed enough on AZB that I don't believe there is any love lost between the...

No, denying me the use of spin is the handicap, silly. ;) I'm not trying to prove anything. Just want to have a taste of your best game is all. If you play as good as you act here, I'm sure you'd probably whoop me pretty good. I suck, really, ask Fran. But if I woof at you here, trust me...

Cool! I can spin the ball real good, I was just trying to give you some weight there, buddy. How 'bout you and me on the undercard to the main event?:thumbup:

Sandcastles would be a great venue. I love this idea, let's "Make It Happen".

Good. Let me know when you come so we can match up ourselves. No bet, just some 14.1, center ball against 47 years of extreme english on every shot. :smile:

Guys like you, Dr. Dave, Pat, etc. made the topic of aiming "toxic". There is nothing inherently toxic about aiming itself. Everybody does it. Now, I suppose youze guys could make banking toxic over there on the Brumback thread if you wanted to. Then we could have a separate and obscure...

Hope you all join in. Heck, I've never even seen you play except for a few shots during our lesson together. I'll buy the stream, make no mistake about it... especially if I get to see you play against Scott. That'd be better than sweating the SVB/Orcullo grudge match. ;)

Yup. How'd it feel? Hope you brought plenty of Vasoline.

You are missing the point. A player should be able to mention their ideas about aiming in the Main Forum without having them moved by default to a section that nobody goes except to argue and put other folks down. Thanks to guys like you, aiming - a most fundamental part of the game - has been...

They don't end well on the Aiming Forum, either, and it's entirely because assholes who have no interest in doing anything but stirring up shit just can't resist overwhelming every thread with mocking negativity. But, hey, if you're gonna cause a trainwreck, might as well protect the general...

Personally, the way anti-system fanatics take a run in the Aiming Forum every thread, I wish there was some way to make it a bannable offense. Danny Fera I know I'm a dreamin', too

Read again. That's not what he (the OP) is saying at all. It's what you are interpreting it to mean because you are seeking affirmation for your own personal beliefs. That's what's known as... "subjectivity".

Lol! This thread reminds me of my favorite line in that movie: "Nothing exceeds like excess" 98 posts so far, more than twice as many as the next highest poster. :rolleyes:

I think the Rempe ball may be more porous like the Elephant Ball. Mine weighs 161.5 grams, which is a full 6 grams lighter than my red circle CB at 167.5 grams. Both balls are identical in size (measured with a Starrett dial caliper), so the Rempe ball is less dense.

If that's how you want to waste your life, dude. Nobody "hits" me for speaking my opinions here. Could it be I have a better way with people than you do, and can express my differences in a less confrontational way? But it's not "fine" for you, even though you have zero interest in learning...

Knowing that about the finish, it makes sense to me that it acts the way it does. I just went down and gave it a good cleaning with some Novus 2 on a buffing wheel. Apparently I should clean it more often, because even though it didn't show chalk marks, it must have been dirty with finger...

Thanks for sharing your experience, Mark. I'd love to try an old one out for comparison. My brand new ball is a different color, more yellow than the measle ball, or even the older blue circle I have. The coating also seems different. Deeper looking and more lustrous, so to speak. I think...

And this lengthy post has exactly what to so with the topic of the thread, which is that John Schmidt changed his opinion about aiming systems and made a public apology to Stan Shuffett on his FB page for comments he had previously made? But to answer your question, nobody owes you an...

I know there's been several threads about various cue balls and their supposed properties, but I wanted to share my recent experiences and get some new opinions. I never thought much about cue balls until I finally got my own table four years ago. After all, at the places I've played most of...
