    New Dynasphere - Xenon

    Yeah, I was wondering that too. Bigger balls is not on my wish list.

    Mosconi Cup 2024, Nov. 30-Dec. 3, Orlando

    Nah. Long way to go regardless. Europe is playing a very beatable game right now.

    Buying A Used Table -- What I Know Now . . .

    You know anyone nearby that's handy? A few people here have done wonders on their own tables. Get a degree from YouTube University. Rails and other work can be farmed out via mail if necessary. Just because you're in the sticks doesn't mean there aren't useful people around.

    New Video on THROW SHOTS You Need to Know

    I'm shocked. I just used it twice in a row to run my last two balls, get on the eight and win my match. I swear the cue ball hit the rail a quarter inch from the ten and it still went on a Diamond table. Spin doesn't seem to affect it going in either, so you can control the cue ball as needed...

    Seems to be tied. Edit: Nah, bracket just wasn't updated.

    Pool jersey's, love 'em or hate 'em..??

    If it's generic and/or it supports your favorite player or shop and/or it's humorous I'm fine with it. Like my Omega Billiards jersey with the sponsorship patch from Acme (the Roadrunner one). If it has your name on it, you're not part of an APA team in a tournament, and/or you don't have at...

    Advice on Buying First Table

    That's an Allenton with the ball-and-claw legs. I have a very similar model, a Manchester. As others have stated, they're more about looking good than playing good. Having said that, the rails bank true and the slate can be leveled by any decent company that can replace the felt. If you...

    History behind your Avatar

    I like scuba diving with loggerhead turtles. And my pockets are too tight.

    Hitting cut shots with draw - why do I keep missing?

    Ay, stop talking about me . . .

    Hitting cut shots with draw - why do I keep missing?

    Furyk is #4 on the all-time PGA money leader list. You'd have to have a lot of zeroes to the right of the decimal point to calculate where he ranks as a percentage of golfers.

    The Zone -- Are We There Yet?

    Yep. And it's like accidentally turning on a light with a hidden switch. Thursday I was playing like dog meat and my opponent needed 2 points to win (BCA 9-ball). I started shooting. The person scoring my match had to go to the table and physically stop me after I scored 28 straight to win -...

    The Reyes Cup

    Yes. Just when the MR production crew was starting to understand how to frame the shots and what to show during and after a shot it seems like they got a new crew, or at least a new director.

    Pool Cat

    Good stuff.

    Pool Cat

    With only 500 subscribers it seems most haven't found this YouTube channel yet. The premise is stupid, but I've watched most of the videos. Super-clean patterns, center ball hits, great diagrams.

    How much weight do you give to a numbering system for Kick shots?

    I use a series of sanity checks for some shots. I'll take a look at a long shot, a kick, or a bank, then use one of the systems (numbers, putting your cue tip at the ghost ball, mirror, etc), then go back and see if my initial aim point matches up with the system, then intuit any adjustments...

    Ever shoot such a good shot that....

    I made such a good shot on the 5 last night - long, thin cut out in space, and 100% pure, with perfect shape on the 6. Riding the wave, I made it and shaped the 8 beautifully, completely neglecting the 7 hiding up in the other corner. My opponent was nice enough to tell me I after I pocketed...
