I have to agree with Neil. You need to adjust your thinking. Start looking for possibilities instead of problems. Both times even with the positions I would have been happier to be shooting instead of watching. Both positions offer possibilities you apparently overlooked.

3 Cushion Those are all Schuler constant taper 3 cushion shafts as Ray Mortell was a 3 cushion player. You might put a post on the 3C forum and have better luck. Just a thought...

Years ago I played in a handicapped eight ball league where the hall owner paid more in performance incentives to get rid of sandbagging. For example I won twice as much money for break and runs and eights on the break than my share of our second place team winnings. He also paid the top three...

To clean your wrap of chalk dust I'd try a vacuum with brush attachment first. Anything else might drive the chalk deeper into the linen.

I've got an Ernie Martinez I sell to you for $600.00. It's tulipwood.

It's all about numbers. $20.00 Handicapped tournament with 100 added (as gift card to winner) just shy of a full 128 bracket. $60.00 Non handicapped tournament with 1000 added 6 players total (all top 32 finishers at US Open). It's your pool hall which would you want to host?

Look up Paul Schofield's posting in this forum on how to fix the springs . I think it's on the second page.

Which Schuler taper are you looking for?

You might try velcro. A local pool hall owner used velcro to hold her pockets. I'd throw 3-4 staples into the side on the wood and clean the backside of the pocket with lanolin free alcohol before sticking on the velcro. This will take up about 1/4 inch of space for the velcro so make sure...

Micro-Mesh makes a woodworking kit with sandpaper running from 1500 grit all the way up to 12000 grit. Run your shaft through that range it will be smooth and stay there. I think it was about $40.00 for the kit.

New glasses ended two of my worst slumps...

Mosconi Cup No qualifying system will work if it means Archer or Morris can earn their way onto the team while Mark Wilson is in charge. He refuses to work with these top level players for personal reasons. Maybe Europe should be similarly handicapped and not allowed to use two of their best...

1/8 of an inch gap leaves approximately 1/16 of an of forward tip movement before a double hit has to occur. Definitely a double hit here. A good rule of thumb is if the cue ball travels forward more than an inch or two a foul has occurred.

I'll take 0319, thanks,.

IIRC, the last time it was for sale was with the right to assume the lease on the building. Unless he bought the property in the meanwhile he's only selling the business and contents.

I might be the only one, but I feel the Mosconi cup was ruined when a player can not earn a place on the team by his playing. One captain's pick I can understand, but when the entire team is picked at the whim of one person I'd rather watch something more interesting.

Check to see if the slate that "pops up" doesn't have a shim underneath it that causes the slate to bow when the slate screws are tightened.

If Barry Behrman banned every player that bad mouthed him, the U.S. Open would have 2-3 players left. I think MG needs to grow a thicker skin and the ability to remain above critical players. Be nice to me or you can't play seems a little childish to me. JMHO...
