    Does it Make Any Sense?

    It's possible to do something wrong at an incredibly high level and still succeed. Stephen Hendry won everything and implied he was aiming with the wrong side of his vision and was compensating a majority of time (although this might have been a way to push the whole Sightright thing). I've...

    European Open 2025, Sarajevo, March 11-16

    Yeah I don't get the deal with that. Seems like retroactive viewing would be an option considering DAZN had it (and pretty much every livestream ever). Chucking $10 to see a blank stream that says come back tomorrow leaves a lot to be desired. New streamer things I suppose

    Anyone Use A Rhino Carbon Fiber Shaft?

    'Action' is slang. In this context I used it to describe a moving cue ball. I don't disagree with what you're saying at all but I also understand what OP was trying to convey. CF will transfer more power so he's seeing that effect on the movement of the cue ball. Semantically no, it's not that...

    Anyone Use A Rhino Carbon Fiber Shaft?

    I should've clarified that it'll increase the action on the cue ball. I don't think that person was saying the carbon shaft magically spins more than a wood one. I think they're noticing more revolutions of the ball due to the increased action.

    Anyone Use A Rhino Carbon Fiber Shaft?

    It's not in your head. Carbon fiber transfers more energy than wood. More energy -> more revolutions in the ball = more spin I'm getting a 29" shaft made and they told me to tack on another $25 in the tip section for customization. You're in the US? How long did it take for them to get it to...

    What's the deal with pool players? A sport for angry and shitty people it seems

    Compared to a lot of things I've seen on this forum, this is a completely plausible and reasonable take and I'm inclined to endorse it

    Mezz cue with Rhino CF Shaft

    Does it have a pilot? I bought a Jacoby Black 5/16-14 for my Mezz and believe it did not. Most United shafts have a very secure "compression lock" fit and the Jacoby definitely had a less secure feeling and it even made the hit and feedback seem more muted to me.

    Matchroom WNT Ranking event-Peri 9 Ball Open 2023 (Oct 5-9) , Hanoi Vietnam, Winner $25K

    Simple jokes amuse simple people, let them enjoy their pee pee sounds in the corner. Gorst on a heater, that table looked too easy for him. Hanoi Open looking dubious for a few very good players. Shame petty bureaucracy is hindering the scene and making people choose sides

    Malvides Open 10 Ball Championship 2023 Topic

    Spoiler for Chang Jung Lin vs Filler Game 1: Chang hits the 10 in and pulls balls out the pocket before cue ball comes to a complete stop. They call a foul on him. He seems to pack up his cues and concede the match? After a delay the 10 gets spotted and Filler gets ball in hand, putting him up...

    pool-hall-massacre

    I'd just like to emphasize this comment and how accepting someone else's personal point of view on their gender mortifies you to the point that you equate an LGBTQ club (which sole purpose is to give a marginalized group of people a place to simply exist) to "random violence, rapes, bomb...

    Predator cue question

    Owned a P3 and Blak 4-1. The biggest thing for me was the width of the butts (haha). P3 is thicker and Blaks (possibly Ikons) are very thin in comparison. In retrospect I would say the P3 had a stiffer hit, but that didn't matter to me personally and I chose to shoot with the Blak for comfort...
