    Gray on the shaft?

    Must be a really naive question but I'm wondering what exactly is the ''gray'' that you see on some shafts? Is it a special finish? Is it what it looks like when it's sanded down? I'm just wondering.

    Any notoriously tall players?

    I've been wondering. It seems all the top pros are either tiny pinoys or average sized americans/europeans. Are there any good players that are on the taller side? I'm talking 6'1'' ++ Just need some inspiration, being 6'3'' myself. Tends to be harder to have a good stance sometimes.

    Should you practice on larger tables?

    Does it make more sense to practice on larger tables? If you can nail longshots on a 10 footer it should be easier on a bar box right? I'm guessing it's a little harder to navigate the cue ball on a tight bar table though.

    WTB - Playing Cue (Budget 300-400$ Shipped)

    Hello! I bought myself my first cue a few weeks ago and I already want more! I will probably end up using the cue I bought as a breaking cue for a while since it was on the cheaper side. I'm a big fan of natural wood tones on a cue, sneaky pete type. Not a big fan of complicated inlays or...

    Actually Bleu refers to the block of chalk, not to the action of chalking. We would probably say ''Mettre du bleu''

    Classic matches to watch?

    I'm looking for the cream of the crop. I've wandered around youtube for the past few weeks watching a bit of everything... 9ball, 8ball, 10ball, mosconi cup, us open, worlds etc. I'm wondering if there are specific matches that are really classic and must-watches. If you have a link it would...

    Thought the above message did not go through, sorry for double posting. It said something about review by a moderator so I thought something was off.

    The weather is horrible in the winter, but we have to deal with it. My last name is pronounced like ''wallet'' but with an ''e'' instead of an ''a''. "Wellet" basically :grin: And thanks to others for the great advice, I'm taking notes.
