If/once you learn how too avoid putting the cue in danger, the problem vanishes. I have butts more than 20 years old without a single scratch/nick/dent/ ...

Use a shaft lengthening device joint-to-joint.

Maybe you should try hitting the head ball at different points !?! and see what happens. Remember, the break has more to do with precision than power. {{You could also try NEW balls}}

In very high gravity conditions, even lasers do not shoot straight, ...

Shot clock is OK to have, but every time opponent says anything to anyone, the clock resets. I had an opponent shark for over 30 minutes--even after I told him I will not shoot until he has shut up for 30 seconds.

Rich people DO like POOL, what they don't like is the seedy locations it is played at; AND they can afford their own room(s).

Then shot, hanged, burned crisp, and run over with a steam roller. Then we get to the bad stuff...

Some tapers start right at the ferrule. Some tapers go about 6"-8" at tip diameter before starting to widen. Some tapers go about 12"-14" at nearly tip diameter before starting to widen. Some tapers have a long radius between the straight part and the conical part. Some tapers have a rather...

Smaller diameter tips have less deflection. Hole drilled in tip/ferule have less deflection. Lighter ferrule results in less deflection. Longer (from tip) straight before starting taper to joint results in softer hits. Taper beginning at Ferrule results in harder hits (more power). If you know...

I started out with a 314-1 and used it for 4-odd years as a play stick. Then I got a Z2 and played with it as a play cue reverting my 314-1 to a break cue. After 4-5 years as a break cue, the 314-1 lost its head (and ferule) so I resorted to my $80 came-with-table cue. A couple years later, I...

Plaintiff got the $600.

When it become obvious he is lining up on the wrong ball and before he goes down. Why ?? Because some people have honor inherent in their character.

Yes, it is the honorable thing to do.

Balls can leave the table and remain in the pocket--good shot Balls can leave the table and remain out of the pocket--foul It all depends on where the ball stops moving.

Beat stage 4--WoW--and congratulations. Live Long and Prosper, Mrs Black-Widow !

The math of zero-sums games seems to be above many peoples math skill level !

Question:: One afternoon, I washed and waxed my car, and some of the wax residue got onto my un-tucked-in shirt. Later that night, I get Ball-in-Hand, notice some chalk, and wipe CB on my shirt. Is that considered waxing ?!?

Neither, most people know how to take "snap shots" few know how to take portraits. When taking portraits:: a) proper lighting is a must b) proper metering is a must c) perfect focus is a must d) selection of Depth of field by adjusting the aperture is a must d) clicking the shutter without...

If you do not wear glasses, you need a flip up eye patch; flip up the patch when determining the distance, flip the patch down to get correct aim. If you do wear glasses, have the optometrist make an attachment that does essentially what the "pirates patch" does above {probably rotating in from...

The people at the bar watch me watching people play pool; and often come up to me to excuse themselves for how bad they are playing. I tell him/her that watching the physics play out on the table is equally exciting with good players and with poor players. It is !! The physics of almost-elastic...
