    Why Your Skill Doesn’t Matter in Matches - Just in Practice

    To me it's like the guys playing basketball at the schoolyard, no one mistakes them for NBA players, but they still enjoy playing as hard as they can for their skill level, it's not different in any sport, I will never play at a pro level but every year I get a little better, we are playing for...

    Why Your Skill Doesn’t Matter in Matches - Just in Practice

    I also believe this IS a skill !!!! If you keep your mind on the last shot you missed that there is nothing you can do about you can't be focusing on what you CAN do on your next shot, as you play better you will be playing better players who will play great safeties against you, it's not just...

    Why Your Skill Doesn’t Matter in Matches - Just in Practice

    All players miss, so what do you do when you miss? When I miss when playing league I try to solve why I missed, I can usually attribute it to not focusing on delivering the cue in a straight line properly during the shot, trying to change my aim while down on the shot, and thinking about the...

    Unaware of mismatched ball sets in upcoming tournament.

    I know it sucks but your opponent is playing with the same crappy balls, don't add negative thoughts to your tournament, think of it like a rainy wet football field, it's not your favorite field to play on but you still have a chance to win, be the best on the crappy field, table, ect.

    Carlo Biado's cue

    Unless you are the same height and weight, same arm length, same speed of stroke, stance I'm sure I'm forgetting some things then insert pro using said cue probably won't feel as good to you, think about tips, they all have a preference BEFORE they started using the one they are paid to use...

    Max Eberle on people who play on barboxes "Pool players need to grow some balls"

    Playing on a 6ft table with polyester balls is a completely different animal, clusters everywhere, it's rare to get a break and run, and your position better be perfect, I have one at my house, it's the only table that would fit and I still have some shots where the supports get in the way, I...

    What glove do you use?

    I wouldn't use talc, it's abrasive, if I run into a humidity problem I think I will pull out the glove, I don't think it will be hard to go back and forth.

    What glove do you use?

    I have been using a glove even when I was playing with a wooden shaft, I'm starting year 5 in my comeback and naturally continued glove use until the other night, I stopped to take a "nature" break and only had 3 or 4 balls on the table so I didn't put my glove back on, I really liked the feel...

    Max Eberle on people who play on barboxes "Pool players need to grow some balls"

    I would love to play on 9ft tables, unfortunately the closest place is 30 miles away and I would not be able to play everyday, most leagues are on bar tables, so the decision is play pool on a bar table or don't play......

    Why Your Skill Doesn’t Matter in Matches - Just in Practice

    I have been experiencing this recently, I have been playing my best pool ever in practice but failing in league play, this couldn't have come at a better time as playoffs are coming soon, I'm going to watch the video tomorrow

    Jason sword interview

    It's like Boxing, I have way more respect for the man who ain't afraid to step into the ring with the best and lose than the guy who won't to protect his "record", that man's record now means coward forever

    Hybrid Shafts.

    12.5mm and 12.0mm on the size, the feedback is real, even on their CF butt, they will be at Super Billiards Expo this year, maybe you get a chance to try one.

    Hybrid Shafts.

    My favorite thing about Becue CF shafts is there consistency, they also build shafts for different types of hit and feel, my favorite is the Prime II 12.0, flex and feedback of a wooden shaft and energy transfer of a CF shaft, I don't know what else you could want except a "miss proof" shaft...

    Hybrid Shafts.

    I went to hard tips and the Becue Prime II 12.0 shaft, it has a super long taper, don't know the number but it looks longer than any shaft I have ever seen, so you get "feedback" like a wooden shaft and the energy transfer of a CF shaft, the Bulletproof Recoil hard tip(green) is a super hard...

    Bulletproof Recoil soft tip review

    I've been shooting with the green tip for almost a year, the only reason I reshaped mine was because I had been dressing it by "eye" and turned a nickel radius into a dime, once I reshaped it correctly to a nickel radius it has not changed, best tip I have ever owned and have no desire to look...

    Who builds the Becue, full pool cues, and are they popular?

    I went that route for awhile, I tried the Tip pik type tool, it looks like a bunch of little pins,and it's like night and day, lasts way longer and takes nothing off the tip, I didn't believe it till I tried it......
