    Nothing really fancy by todays standards

    When I lived there I bought it through a guy who ran a pool room on North Ave just off of Wells St. He wasn't the cue maker but he was my contact with the cue maker. That Old Town are has been through some changes in the ensuing years. I was there in 1964 and 1965.

    why Filipinos use powder a lot

    New to the forum, just started playing after a more than many year layoff. I don't know all the customs here and don't want to derail a thread but it looks like the thread is pretty much dying and I have a related question.

    Where Does Pure Shotmaking Ability Come From?

    New poster here. I have suspected my stance (and other things) are holding back my progress. I am very inconsistent with shotmaking, the only consistency with my shotmaking is that it is the weakest part of my game. Question: Where is the best place to learn correct stance and how to best...
