    Hey Brother, Can You Spare an Extra $3,300 for a Nice Adam Cue?

    In fairness, Hunter, he is willing to entertain offers below the $3,300 asking price. In today's tough economy, he might be willing to let the cue go for under 3 grand!!

    Made a HDR (yes 'a' is proper) of my friends room

    Really nice work. The fisheye distortion gives a very unique look. What kind of treatments did you use in Photoshop to get the grain & coloration in the final product?

    Who is the worst announcer?

    Those would be my bottom two for sure. With respect to Mitch (and Ewa, and Allen), we need to remember who they are working for and who their audience is. While the typical ESPN viewer may imagine himself to be knowledgeable in all sports, the broad ESPN audience typically DOESN'T know much of...

    Lucasi cue

    Agree with Bill Porter on the hit of DP cues... I own some recent DP's. They play nicely and are well finished. I've also gotten very good service from Dale-- asked for a custom shaft taper and received them exactly as specified for no additional charge. (He offers this with all of his eBay...

    Now thats pool

    Mike is a classy guy... I was on the sidelines about ten feet away when this happened. He asked if the rule was foul-on-all-balls. When he was told "yes", he said that he had touched the seven while bridging over it. Absolutely no one else saw it. As he sat down he smiled and said "I've...

    ....controversial

    me, too... JoeyA, I completely respect your belief that a player's IDEA of executing a certain technique can lead to useful improvement, even if the physical execution does not match up precisely with the mental image. FOR ME, however, the idea of twisting the cue while stroking would be a...

    ....controversial

    This has been around for a while... I recall that Johnny Holiday wrote about this in his long-ago instruction books. He seemed to think that the technique gave him some extra-special juice on the cue ball. I tend to agree with those who don't buy in to this idea, at least at face value. It...

    Top 10 sweetest strokes of all time

    Another vote for Dallas... The first time I saw Dallas West play I was stunned. Instroke75 summed up my reaction perfectly: "that is what a stroke is supposed to look like!" Like so many of the very best, he made the game look simple and effortless. Other favorites: Buddy Hall, Mike Sigel...
