    OB Cues Presents TAR 17: Mills vs Van Boening

    I was wondering the same thing. I like the crooked cue, but it isnt the biggest venue. There should be a pretty big turnout for the hometown fav Donny.

    Parica beat Svb for the 2nd time

    #1 its 9 ball. #2 its a very short race. At this caliber anyone can beat anyone else in a short race. I really dont think you can say anything about which player is "better" given the circumstances of their meetings. They need to play a loooooong race to really make a sound judgement.

    Poll: Do you use BHE, FHE, parallel english or all 3?

    Any "B" Players looking for Cheap $100 sets on BB?

    If he ran 96 in straight pool he is no B player.... no way, no how.... I ran 50 one time, although I do not play the game much. Agreed, running 96 is a ton more difficult than a 5 pack on a BB.

    Any "B" Players looking for Cheap $100 sets on BB?

    Thats about as honest as you can get. I am also a 7 in APA 8 ball, and until about 4 months ago I was a 8 in APA 9 ball. I was raised to a 9. I figure a good B player should be able to compete with the ghost on a good Diamond BB. As far as 4-5 packs on a BB, it all comes down to the break and...

    Any "B" Players looking for Cheap $100 sets on BB?

    Challenges of this type have trouble written all over them. I have heard dozens of different discriptions of what a "B" player actually is....... I consider myself a B player, but most everyone I play with would describe me as an "A" player. Ive strung up 4-5packs of nine ball on a Diamond BB...

    So..you want a professional lesson? (LONG post)

    Those are the three I work on when I do make the time. :-) It only takes about 15 minutes.... I am wildly lazy :-p

    So..you want a professional lesson? (LONG post)

    I had the pleasure of working with Scott earlier this year, and I would recommend him highly to anyone looking to improve their game. The best money I ever spent on pool. Bar none. The video analysis is worth the price of admission alone. I will be honest and say I havent done the mother...

    Ghost WITHOUT BIH... work up drill

    You figure you would have to have a Break and Run average of greater than 50% to beat the 9 ball ghost without BIH. The Percentage would have to be even higher if you wanted to win regularly. If you arent playing on a familiar table and pattern-racking, I dont see anyone being able to beat this...

    10 ball ring game rules argument...

    Thats how Ive always played. Where I play, we only spot balls prior to the money ball. You never get BIH when shooting at a money ball. I have seen some people play where any ball pocketed illegally is spotted. The bottom line is this should be cleared up at the beginning of the game.

    Right-handed shooter that's left eye dominant???

    I am right handed and left eye dominant. If you take a look at these three pics, you can see that I position my head so the cue is a little to the left of the center of my chin. I do this on most shots. You can tell because after an hour or so of shooting a blue strip of chalk starts showing...

    Eye opening drill... Point & Shoot

    I try to do this all the time while I am shooting. I helps train your mind to really make a decision about where the cue ball needs to be for the next shot. Not making a decision about my shape is one my most common, and careless errors, I make. Ending up with the wrong angle because you were...

    Fact or Fiction about Packages

    Shane and Scott were playing rack your own 9ball, so did Shane's run of 7 count? To answer the question, the largest package ive actually seen run was myself. I ran 5 on a Diamond Bar box. Ive done 4 on a Robertson 9ft with big ass pockets. I dont get out much ;-)

    What are the prices to play pool at your local pool hall?

    In Clearwater the rates are awesome. Most the local places are 5$ all you can play open to 7. Hammerheads is now FREE during the day with a purchase from the bar. Evening rates are typically 4-5$/hour per person. Playing during the day is the way to go!

    What do you do when you suck???

    Excellent post Scott. This is one of the more valuable things I gained from the lesson with you. Since that time, I have been able to drag out my "A" game pretty much at will. Yes, there have still been a slump here and there, but I have the ability to diagnose the problem and remedy it in...

    Sharked by railbirds

    I have a group of friends that I play cheap ring games (50cents/1$ a ball)with, and we are super-relaxed about sharking. Its about having fun and you REALLY have to bear down to run out with someone next to you making fart noises.
