Thank you. :smile:

In playing 9 Ball, I scratched on the break. The 1-Ball rolled all the way up to be within the "Kitchen" during the break. My opponent wanted to be able to take ball-in-hand in the Kitchen and play the 1-Ball which was also in the Kitchen. Is this legal to do, or must he have the cue ball leave...

I have the Black Dot, the Red Dot and the Ultimate Weapon. The Black Dot works really well on long table shots where I have to cut an object ball that's close to the end rail and pot it in one of the corners close by. The UW performs equally well and its narrow shaft is a plus for me. The Red...

I only use kamui chalk and Kamui Black tips (SS & S). Really hooked on their stuff.

I just put a new Kamui SS Black Clear tip on and noticed it was a little too long for my $90.00 Porper tool. This caused me a lot of extra work. But what I noticed the most was that this Super Soft was a lot harder than my other Super Softs. I'm somewhat surprised by the inconsistency from SS to...

There is hope after all. Today, he went 3 1/2 hours without so much as one "helpful" hint, or unsolicited piece of advice. I think he's done offering advice without someone first having asked for it. Yes!

Thank You very much. I mentioned today that he spent at least as much time delaying the game by giving advice as some players do by having side-bar conversations and I think it hit home a little because he stayed in his seat a little more and let his partner do more shooting without so much...

I find it interesting that I post a question on here and you come at me calling me anal. Do me a favor, stay out of my posts.

The "coach" is a pretty fair player (although he cannot back a ball up over a couple of inches). He is a good shot maker for the most part, though. His partner is also a good shot maker (and can't back a ball up at all). The "coach" also is forever trying to meddle in me and my partner's shots...

He even goes so far as to hold his finger on a rail to show his partner where to hit for a bank shot. He doesn't actually leave a chalk spot, but he does hold his finger in place for the shot.

Thank you for your replies.

Actually, we all get along quite well for the amount of time we spend together (about 3.5 hours per day every day of the week). I think what bothers us about it is that the one opponent who's receiving all the unsolicited "help" is actually a pretty good shooter in his own right but too nice to...

There are four of us older gentlemen that meet at the Senior Center each weekday morning to play "Alabama 8-Ball". My team mate and I have become concerned with our opponents continually helping each other when it's their inning. One of the opponents inevitably will get out of his chair and...

No, they're not the Black Dot. They're a completely different shaft with their own taper according to the webpage on them. My concern is that I'm so used to the 35-layers of the Black Dot, and the low deflection, yet I'm not able to find out the specifics of this "Pro" shaft.

I have a Black Dot shaft on a cheap Meucci Echo butt and I've used it to break with for almost two years now. Not only have I used it, but several guys in the billiard hall also break with it. To date, absolutely NO delamination and it rolls perfectly. I doubt seriously that I have the only...

I enjoyed reading about your pool experiences. thanks.:smile:

Has anyone had any experience with this "Pro One" shaft that comes standard on these new cues? If so, how do they shoot? What's the quality? Thanks, in advance.

I couldn't be more excited watching C. J. run out the balls using his time-proven methods. I'm so happy that he's spent so much time (and money;)) instructing his fellow humans on a game that is so enjoyable. He's quite a guy. My game has improved so much it's almost unbelievable.

I'm affected most by intentional sharking from opponents who just can't seem to accept losing a game. One guy deliberately waves his hands and shakes his cue stick violently to get my attention and distract me. Another one will ask me questions as I'm lining up to shoot and even when I'm down on...

Thank you for posting this video. I learned a lot from watching it.:smile:
