    Gray chalk best for Tournament Blue Simonis!

    Gray Chalk I have a nine foot Diamond Pro w/ 860 Blue Tournament Cloth. I most strongly agree that Gray is the best. Though it does show a significant mottle after the impact, it brushes off easier than any other color. I love the gray Masters Chalk for cue performance also! Cross Side...

    Have been noticing how many top players, i.e., Allison, Efren and others of their skill level use metal jointed cues. I have for years preferred ivory. Would like to hear other's opinion and why?

    Looking For Bank Action In Phoenix

    Looking for Bank Pool Action In Phoenix... Play would be on my 9 foot Diamond Pro with 860 DCC blue cloth. Will play the pros if the weight is right. Nothing outlandish. $25.00 - $50.00 games works for me. Cross Side Larry Taught the game by "Get Back Jack" Madden. "Learn from the best...

    Spinning the cue on shots

    No, he is not blowing smoke. Spinning the cue is a great technique to learn and master. It is mainly used when attempting to widen the angle of a bank shot far beyond what an extreme cut with boo coo english will provide for. The all time master of this technique among living players has got...

    Movin' to Phoenix

    Without a doubt, Dave Clayton is the best table mechanic in the area. He has done my Diamond Pro nine footer twice and my Diamond seven footer once. He is better than excellent, he is superb! Reasonable in price also. Cross Side Larry

    Bank Players - What kind of cues

    Best cue for banking??? I bank best with my Jack Madden and my Gina cues. I believe a lot has to do with the shaft and the tip. A shaft with minimum deflection and a tip that best transfers spin, seems to work best for me. Not sure if either/or is all that important when compared to the...

    How do you think Scott Frost would match up with?

    Was unaware of Dallas match. Scott did say they had a "history" but claims he beat Billy for $12,000.00 during their first encounter. Maybe they have matched up now three times and if the numbers are correct as stated and I know as a fact the DCC match was correct, then Billy is still ahead by...

    How do you think Scott Frost would match up with?

    Watched Scott Frost give Billy Incardona the break and a pick in one pocket action at DCC. Scott won six up at $300.00 per game. Billy had an extra $300.00 on himself with the railbirds. Billy quit $3,600.00 down. Days later was inducted into the Hall Of Fame. I backed Scott Frost but was...
