Wow! I will admit that I have found his posts somewhat brash at times, and to often be driven by a strong bias, but this thread has gotten way out of hand. I get one or two posts about grammar, but let it go already and get to the topic at hand. Just because your offended by his post doesn't...

You have the best avatar I have seen!!

Done!!!!!!

I agree with this comment. Center ball seems like a very reasonable topic of discussion, especially since most amateur players probably play too much spin anyways. It is certainly as worthy of discussion as the comparison of different shafts and whether or not they are worth the money is. I...

So sad to hear this. My prayers are with his family.

He openly admits that they are edited, so I wouldn't say they can not be trusted.

I saw Earl perform once in my area. He set up shots like this to do as the "stroke shot" portion of the show, as it appears he is doing in this video. He did it17 times before he got it, suggesting that the shot was very difficult, but also suggesting that you probably won't see it much in a...

You keep calling it nonsense without providing any proof. I posted a link to Dr. Dave's website with statements based on actual physics and testing. If you don't have anything more to add to the topic besides just blindly calling it nonsense, then I don't have anymore to discuss with you.

I said the OP was giving too much credit to the shaft for what it can do to affect the spin of the cue ball and that is true. Shafts certainly affect cue ball squirt and the "feel" of the shot, but their affect on how much draw or side spin is applied during the same stroke is minimal, and...

Here is a reference from Dr. Dave's site to give some insight on the issue. http://billiards.colostate.edu/pool_myths.html

What you are saying is just words with nothing to back them up. This point has been proven already, and continues to be true whether you deny it or not. Heck Efren has won tournaments with $30 cues and makes the ball move all over. Any solid cue with a proper tip will make the ball dance with...

I find it hard to believe that this is being argued on a knowledgeable site like this. He did not say a Broom stick, he said a house cue. The shaft makes very little difference i\on how much spin is imparted on the CB. The tip appears to make some difference according to recent tests, but the...

I think you are giving a shaft (and its taper) more credit for its effect on a shot than what is deserved. Besides the difference in squirt created by the LD qualities of these shafts, their effects on spin applied to a CB are greatly exaggerated. I play with a Tiger X-pro 11.75mm LD shaft. I...

How is someone that is simply trying to return a cue for a refund trying to play you? What would he have to gain from that, and what would you be out? The answer here is simply. He doesn't like what you sent him, and feels it is less than what was advertised. Refund the guy his money in...

Praying for a good recovery for you!!

I would go somewhere in between because A leaves too long of a reach. There are several things out there for cue ball speed control. I use the drill I learned from Scott Lee that helps you get to where you can repeatedly move the ball different distances, and then apply those to shots as you...

I think black would look far better on that cue. Then again, I don't like the white with brown specs on anything, so I may be biased.

$500 is a good price for a table that should give you a lifetime of enjoyment.

Very sad to that hear that. I will say a prayer for his family and friends.

My thoughts exactly!
