    I bought Poolology

    Sorry for my last post. You obviously didn't have time to answer me. I knew Jack Dunbar well and also Bruce Pawley. I used to play against them along with Chuck Samples, window washer Joey, Charlie Bufford and many others at the Hub, Strand, Monarch, Boulevard, etc. I don't think that there...

    I bought Poolology

    I hate to be negative, but I think you have a good point, Neil. He has refused to answer a couple of simple questions of mine two times, so I think that his stories are all fabricated. I will not be buying a copy of the book.

    I bought Poolology

    This is probably off topic but I will go ahead anyway. I asked you on another thread but possibly you didn't see it. I am interested in that story you told about one Mr. Bollis. I was born and raised in WV so I am interested in just where you reside. I was in Charleston for a number of years...

    How many times have you heard this?

    Current players can always tell if some guy used to be a player when he was younger just by watching the way he moves around the table, holds his cue stick, stroke, etc. That's true for golf also.

    How many times have you heard this?

    Where are you from in WV? I grew up there - Charleston - and I've never heard of Johnny Billo. I'm 68 years old so I'm probably too old or too young. Perhaps he was not from the Charleston area.

    Stan and a 33 minute video...

    I swear to God, after reading all of this scientific stuff I have had enough of aiming systems. I can hold my own with just about anyone and all I use is my eyes, brain, feel and instinct to play well. Most of y'all would make perfect spouses with the way you bicker about. I will continue to...

    Why are Viking cues so often overlooked?

    I have one of their import lines (Valhalla) and it plays really well. Also, it is much straighter than my made in the USA McDermott G Core. In fact, it is dead straight.

    Dealing with pool players can be ridiculous: your opinion on my pool table sale

    Don't feel bad about yourself. Tell the guy exactly how you feel about the situation, do not sell the table to him and wipe him off your list of friends. Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    When ameteur competitors consistantly cash in professional events

    I don't know about pool, but in golf if an amateur competes in a pro event and wins money and takes the money, he is no longer considered an amateur. It should be the same in pool or any sporting event.

    Tiger Icebreaker Tip

    However true that might be, I live in Costa Rica and good things are hard to get. My billiard guy has these tips available and no others so I will use them. I could import others from the US, but custom is unbelievable here and not worth the trouble. But thanks for your comments.

    Tiger Icebreaker Tip

    Has anyone tried the Tiger Icebreaker tip on their break cue. I am thinking of replacing my current totally phenolic tip with this one to obtain better control of the cue ball. Also, I plan to use a quarter tip shape or less. I appreciate any feedback.

    How to refinish a golf shaft

    If this has been discussed before, my sincere apologies for reposting. I made a horrible mistake and cleaned a ferrule with Aramith ball cleaner and got some on the shaft, which destroyed the polyurethane. Is there an easy fix for me, like using clear paint with Acrylic Polyurethene? I...
