    Too bad no one around here will go there unless they change the name to Cloth.

    Ambition to get better slowly decreasing - no tourneys available

    That's wrong. Doesn't change the point. No duh. Good reason.

    Ambition to get better slowly decreasing - no tourneys available

    Sure I've heard of it, but not after a different format is set. Look, for you to ask about it is fine. You could ask the guy to change the competition to BJs if you want. But calling him nitpicky for declining and making you play according to how the rules were set is absurd.

    Ambition to get better slowly decreasing - no tourneys available

    It's nit behavior to not agree to make it easier for you to beat him when you'd lost and he hadn't in a double elimination tournament? Like bro are YOU serious.

    Measles Ball

    You know, I thought it looked small but assumed it was an optical illusion from the markings. I see it's sold now as an Aramith ball so I presumed it was normal quality/size/weight. Did it used to not be an Aramith?

    Measles Ball

    Thanks. I got a Jim Rempe ball w the table so I'm just using that for now. Wanted the measle ball to see the rotation and the Rempe basically does the same thing.

    Measles Ball

    Is there a reasonably priced, quality measles ball? Not sure why each dot on an Aramith costs $10. Thanks.

    10 Reasons Why the HALF-BALL HIT is so Important

    Yeah. My 8 year old gets on the table and generally knows the angle. He's no prodigy, it's just simple geometry. If I didn't see the angles I can't imagine wanting to play for even a minute.

    10 Reasons Why the HALF-BALL HIT is so Important

    One thing that confused me is that I read in one place that the pivot is NOT at the bridge but Lil Chris pivots at the bridge.

    10 Reasons Why the HALF-BALL HIT is so Important

    Dr. Dave! Do even decent players miss very often due to wrong aim? (And by "aim" I mean "the direction in which I intend the cue ball to go.") I may use a stance or a form or a stroke or do something else that gives me no chance to send the cue ball in the right direction, but I still feel like...

    10 Reasons Why the HALF-BALL HIT is so Important

    What's ridiculous is a search for Hal Houle's aiming method brings up a Dr. Dave link first and second is a link to the thread on here titled "Hal Houles CTE in detail" which is exactly not about that, rather it's about a hybrid of a whole bunch of CTE-type systems. Where's Hal Houle's original...

    Gold Crown Identification.

    Two Gold Crown III questions: 1. Was there a brand engraving on any of the corner castings like on the IV, V? 2. Was there a specific point that the ball box branding changed from a B to the silhouette shooting guy, or vice versa, or was it just random? TIA.

    Best Billiard Balls

    Seems like the 15 ball would be the heaviest what with all the extra black ink for that fat font. Better adjust your aim for that 4 ball.

    Transporting Pool Tables Slates During Table Break Down and Move

    If anyone still notices this thread... when you say "stack" the slates in a minivan (Toyota Sienna for me), this means laying them down, correct? Is there not fear that they'll crack if you go over a bad bump? Seems like standing them up might be safer but don't see how to do that with a...
