    I thought of a new game for beginners/amateurs

    A ball is placed on the dot, cue ball is placed anywhere behind the headstring to start. All you have to do to get a point is hit the rail first then contact the ball. Nothing has to hit a rail. If the ball goes in, its still a point and it gets spotted. It can be 1 player for a test trial or 2...

    Is adding weight to a cue a big difference from "natural" weight?

    Three ounces. I've found I play best with a 21 ounce stick and my stick is an 18.

    Is adding weight to a cue a big difference from "natural" weight?

    One of the knockoff Balabushka's. The GB-1. Think I'll have to get another cue, the other guy is right, 3 ounces is just too much to add unfortunately. Sucks cuz I am attached to this cue. It was my first cue and I've had it for 10 years now.

    Is adding weight to a cue a big difference from "natural" weight?

    I would like to add 3 ounces to my stick but I dunno if I should do that or bite the bullet and buy a new one. Wouldn't the balance be different?

    I want Earl back next year!

    Say what you want about him but hes not rattled under the MC pressure. Thats the kind of guys we need. I want a team of Bergman, Sky, SVB (feels pressure but still gets the W's), Earl, and Archer.

    Any way to get Shave vs Earl race to 100 on 10 ft'er?

    TAR doesn't seem to be selling it. Doesn't make sense to demand it be taken off Youtube if you won't release it to the public.

    The problem isn't that non pool players don't know who Efren is

    Exactly. But see, thats the thing, people should already know these players through Youtube or online streaming. This just proves pool can't succeed on TV because the people that play that game couldn't care less about watching it or learning who the top professionals are.

    The problem isn't that non pool players don't know who Efren is

    The problem is that most pool players don't know who Efren is! Now I'm talking about the casuals and league players, but they make up a LARGE majority of the pool scene. Imagine a football player not knowing who TomnBrady is? Or a baseball player not knowing who Alex Rodriguez is? This is the...

    Anyone know where I can get a case for a one-piece cue?

    Bought a Dufferin, best purchase ever, feel stupid lugging it around without a case tho lol I'll still look silly but hopefully a little less so. Anyone know where I can find one, or even something that would substitute as one?

    More solid hit with a one-piece cue?

    I'm in South Dakota now for Sturgis. I didn't bring my stick and have been playing a lot at this bar with a stick out of the rack. They are all pretty much brand spankin new, bought in the past month. I'm amazed that I'm playing so much better with it. The hits just seem so much more solid. I...

    What's your favorite quote by a billiards player?

    What's your favorite quote by a billiards player?

    I have a new one after just listening to the Earl/Efren 9-ball set at Steinway. Tony Robles was commentating and said one time Earl looked at him dead in the eye and said completely serious "I've never missed a shot that was my fault. It's always the table, the balls, or the equipment." :grin:

    How come early 2010s Earl is better than late 90s-late 00s Earl?

    EDIT: sorry, I should have said mid 00s-2010 What did he do to revive his game? He wasn't bad those years but I'd take todays Earl any day over that era's Earl.

    Does a cue butt have a finite amount of hits in it?

    In other words, can you have the same butt your whole life, playing every day, just changing shafts when needed, or does the butt lose something little by little over time?

    How rare is it to be able to do this?

    He can do it twice in a row but he can also miss the scratch a couple times in a row. He always gets the draw. He's so naturally talented. Shame he doesn't really love the game. He'll go months and months without touching a cue, join a league for a session, then quit for a long time again...

    How rare is it to be able to do this?

    My buddy can put the cue ball hanging in one corner pocket, an object ball hanging in the other corner pocket and make the ball and draw the cue all the way back and scratch in the pocket the cue was near originally. On his 9 footer. I thought it was really impressive considering the distance...
