Not really. The listing's text says: ". . .this comes with a free gift offered ONLY at Zombie Slayer Billiards." They're probably throwing in a Tascarella. :D:D:D

Shaddered on the break? Why dhad's udderly treatful! :D:D:D

Bravo to both Fran and Jennie It's really nice to see two people with differing points of view state their cases intelligently, articulately and with mutual consideration and respect. It is a (rare) pleasure to be able to partake of a civil discussion on these boards!

Are they refusing to give you a refund now that you've returned the case? Or did they issue the refund while expressing a desire not to do business with you going forward?

Amen, brother. It is an immutable law of AZ Billiards that a certain phrase must appear in any thread like this. It has yet to be posted, so I'll step to the plate: "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian" Truth be told, there are damn few cues on the market (including the lower end such as...

Critique of Murdoch 7627's Critique of "Dr." Dave's Review Dr. Dave certainly doesn't need me to fight his fights for him, but a point must be made here. When an academic reviews the work of another, the reviewer will typically limit his research and analysis to published work. This is done...

You're a strange man, Tramp. A very strange man.

9 ft. Gandy. Very happy with it.

Good choice, and a nice post.

. . .and so it begins. Again.

They just cut their tournament fields from 64 to 48. Doesn't seem like their current problems relate to the need to attract more players.

Softshot, all of these champions are MASSIVELY talented. The same can be said for those great players whose views Williebetmore has solicited. Among these talented individuals, those who work the hardest will almost certainly have the most success. I'd never disparage any champion by...

We'll all probably have to roll our own if we want these, Bruce. I'd think that there is enough variation in pocket size and shape among the world's pool tables as to preclude a manufactured product.

You make a great point here, Louie. What often gets lost in conversations like this is that even the "grinders"-- pro athletes who are seen as less talented than their peers, and who succeed through determination and hard work-- have physical gifts that are several standard deviations above the...

It's pretty to think so. . . but it's not realistic. At least not beyond a certain level of accomplishment. Allen Hopkins ran ten balls the first time that he stepped to a table. Greg Norman was a scratch golfer a year after he took up the game. Hard work and an open mind will likely get you...

One can take PJ’s original argument full circle. First, I agree that player preferences as to “feel” can be very fluid. This is best seen in other sports where playing equipment has significantly evolved. In golf, for example, expert players through the 1980’s would seek out the perfect...

Wow... that is some bad luck. Those folks know how to handle snow up there- must have been a near-blizzard to close the Thruway.

I was taught not to be too dogmatic about this-- that any cut angle between 15 and 45 degrees is generally useful for getting position anywhere on the table when one has to move the cue ball a fair distance. I've always found this to be good practice, and (obviously) 30 degrees is right in the...

You're not alone. For those who don't have a Google account, here is the text of the link that Bob Calahan provided above: Here's something interesting we tried in 1991: At an event we had 16 cues with the butt, joint and the ferrules covered with masking tape...then numbered. No one could...
