Low works best when it isn’t rack your own and you break from center or near center. You can experiment with it. If the head ball is off on either side and you hit it from dead center hard with follow the cb is more likely to jump off the table. With low you can also adjust the side of center...

Looks like Denver might be better $128 round trip on the flight and 2 tournaments…..

Ah. Some of you guys. 1 pocket by yourself can be a blast. Have one player play offense while the other plays defense. There are multiple strategies in one pocket. If both have the same strategy it probably won’t be very interesting. I have trouble finishing a game that way. But if you choose a...

It’s all beef jerky and salsa. Making me hungry. Cut it like a ginsu guys. A lot of newer players will have no clue on that one.

The term!!-parlor trick!

Fair enough. You must have a lot of patience.

“thrift store” “boutique” “pawn shop” what’s the term meaning “just for looks”? Gonna bother me all day now

Boogie. My avg break speed is ~21mph. It’s the same speed in 8 and 9. But like I was saying. In the summer during landscape season it happens to be a bit harder. I can’t tell the motion is harder, it’s the sound of the rack cracking. You can hear the difference. Then the Predator app verified it...

N No. You are on the money for sure. I feel the same way. A nice open table without big clusters is by far the superior break for almost anyone. Even a locksmith safety player. There are too many balls to make contact with on a safety in 8 ball. Just run em out instead. And there is a 2nd ball...

Haha. I have a few cues. It’s the cost seeing how there are no qualifiers anywhere in the Midwest I can drive to. If I go discount airlines it’s $30 a way for a bag on top of all the other costs. And I definitely will not have a breaker for the tournament anyway. Plus I didn’t realize that...

Well this is what I was told could’ve done it. They aren’t near the rings.

Well actually. The loose ring. I’m almost positive was when the old asshole on my team decided to use it as his walking stick. That was about a month ago. I noticed a slight rattle a couple weeks after. Thought I was just not hitting em well. Then it got worse after that. I can’t say for sure if...

I called and the girl that answered didn’t know what kind they were. No bs

lol. I just wanna know if they have Dufferin house Cues or if they got those fucking fiberglass ones that some halls are carrying now. Better off stopping at Walmart and grabbing a cue from there if they have the fiberglass ones

I like the insight Colonel. It’s actually just a matter of my twisted sense of humor that takes over. APA has turned into a bit of a joke for me this past year and I think it’s funny that I can just smash the break and pop the 8 in when I feel like it. I see all these APA players breaking for...

Anybody know what kind of house cues they have? I might fly over there in a few weeks for the US Open qualifier and don’t feel like taking a cue with. Especially if I fly cheap with Spirit!😀😀Broke my breaker(obviously) and found out my O1 has a loose ring and needs a full rebuild. I really don’t...

Yeah glad you mentioned the “hop”. mine hops twice on a 9’. Lines on home cloth are — — -1. The first line is the cue on the cloth and is about 8” long. 2nd and 3rd are the cb. Seems kind of crazy that it hops at all with draw on it

Ah. This one was a viper cue with phenolic joint. I had an extra Viper butt once the first one broke. But now it is making more sense why the pin bent on the Joss with the phenolic joint I was using before-twice. Maybe phenolic sucks! Never had any issues with a stainless to phenolic or a one...

See now. This is where I’d like a better explanation. I get you can get the eight ball moving. But if you don’t need to kill it on breaks why do all the pros average around a 20mph break speed? There has to be a reason for it. Or they would break softer. So that’s where my disconnect comes in on...

Honestly. Breaking from the middle and on only one APA team. I’ve made the 8 on the break 5 times in the past 2-1/2sessions(6mos) in league play. More often than a lot of people that break for the 8. Plus there’s a lot nicer spread from the middle IMHO. It’s not BS on the whole 23+ miles per...
