Is there any treatment for this or is it something you have to bear down on? So frustrated right now.

I can't believe I waited this long to try it. Maybe it has something to do with me being so left-eye dominant that my old stance wasn't ideal.

I've been out of the loop, what did he do?

My friend fouled and the guy had BIH on the 8 so he gathered all the balls up and racked.

Me and my friend were politely arguing this last night. He told me his opponent got mad cuz he raked the balls. I said I didn't blame him since I don't like to see it done and it irks me too. I told him he should stop doing it since some people frown on it but his attitude was "Oh well"

My first session with this team/captain. 2 weeks in a row he bounced a check on accident. We would be in 1st if we got those 4 bonus points but we're in 4th because of it. I hate dumbasses. Needless to say this will also be my last session with said dumbass. :angry:

It doesn't really change the fact that James is planning on robbing Mike Johnson of all of his cues.

This is what I would do, and I have many times, though obviously not with the same numbers you have. Put up your strongest 3 first and if he/she wins, play the other 3, the 7, and your 2 strongest 5s. If the 3 loses the first match, play four 5s.

Yeah I'm talking a straight in shot with the CB and OB within 2-3 inches of each other. Thanks for the replies!

Anyone else ever have this problem? Obviously I am not a good player but I'm learning. One thing that gives me problems is if the CB and OB are close together and I need to draw it, I'm always afraid the CB will draw back against my stick. Probably because it's happened a few times. This messes...

Price is not an issue, I just don't know which one will suit me best. I play exclusively on bar tables and I'm not that good (APA 5 in 8-ball, don't play 9-ball) but always looking to improve. Just really racking my brain figuring out which one to get before I spend $200+.

Nothing fancy. I think with poolhalls, the fancier it, the worse it is. I'd want a dimly lit place with high rollers that were always in action and railbirds were always hovering around their games, an oldschool jukebox filled with only classic rock. You could BYOB as long as it was beer or wine...

I definitely dog 8-ball shots more often than 9-ball shots. Not sayin it's the ball, just sayin

Well the money isn't an issue at all but I've never been one to spend money on fancy things just to look good. I'm not materialistic, anything I buy better perform better than the cheaper alternative.

Because I've always had difficulty compensating for deflection but yeah I guess with an LD shaft I could shoot the long ones with side too lol I just have my doubts about the technology.

Does the solidness of the hits these great shafts produce still make it worth it or is it just money wasted?

When I tap it against the floor, the bottom makes a noise like it's hollow or something? Also, how does one know when it's time to replace the butt of a stick? Thanks!

A butt with an OB shaft

It was one of those threads about the best cue for a budget. Someone said you can get a good stick with an OB for under $300. Anyone know where at?

How good is this guy?
