Did a sharpie not work on the CF shaft...

Isn't that where the name "Pool Hall" actually came from? (and ultimately the American version "Pool')

3 pages and no one mentioned main stream media......I would tend to think that if Matchroom would somehow work out a way to get pool on ESPN or some other cable channel on a regular basis it would have a significant effect on the popularity of pool. Contrary....although CJ I am sure thinks he...

+1 on hitting up RealKingCobra......He did my GC (many years ago now) and actually replaced the sub rail wood and used a different kind of wood than what comes original on the GCs.....I can't for the life of me remember what kind of wood it was though....He said it played more consistent through...

My guess is scratching on the 8-ball resulting in a loss of game was after the introduction of coin op bar box tables....just move on to the next game if the 8-ball is made early.

Perhaps that is one part of the answer.....put a Starbucks in the pool room (or Starbucks like set up)......I have never been in a pool room with a good coffee bar....I have traveled to neighboring states for tournaments in the past....The routine is almost always the same in the morning on the...

I agree with your assessment 100%....I use the exact same bucket set up and Aramith ball cleaner....might as well clean em with Pledge. To me it is akin to bowling on a dry (non league night) lane vs a fresh oiled lane (right before the league/tournament)..... CB (and OBs) do some funky...

Can't take some of you anywhere.....SMH.....Fun Blocker!!!......You were supposed say you know without saying you know....Guess I can't have any fun around here.......LOL....no worries...:) I "expected" you (and others) to know but (hoped) you would play along....Oh well.......I am fairly...

Kind of surprised not one person jumped all over this......Obviously I am not a professional content creator....but I did make a better video of the shot to show what normally happens when you shoot the shot and then the shot being made..... 9ball and 2ball froze to the rail (froze together)...

To each their own...but I don't take the same view as you. In 1996 we bought a lot and had options but picked a specific floor plan of the choices for a house to be built....We chose that (smaller) floor plan because at the time we could not afford to buy a house with a room (other than the...

I have used this shot from time to time to find out how much pool knowledge/skill a person has.....IMO a fairly decent barometer in most cases......If they know how to make the shot...chances are they have been around the block.....If they don't.....chances are they are talking out their...

Good news is I was never a top flight player......I am 55 and on vacation until Feb 19........then retired.....I am actually starting to pick up the cue again and "practice" after at least a 5 year layoff....Fargo is currently 607.........My goal is to get to 599 so I can play in all the big...

If they did a pool sequel....I would love to see a different approach......Instead of the stereotyped hustling dark underworld....or a re-hash of previous movies.....I would love to see a movie about pool that comes off similar to the movie Money Ball........Something (or someone) that came...

Some stuff to play around with and experiment. Grip pressures are actually opposite....here is an experiment for you....Take your first finger and thumb and press them together firmly....keeping that firm pressure attempt to move your wrist....You will notice that your wrist will be very...

I dusted off the cues and cleared enough space around the table in the last few months to start practicing/playing again....I am on Vacation until Feb 19 and then retired from my current job.......So I have been working on my PSR and refining out my associated flaws....many flaws....many...

Good...with that revision I got my 5 years back!!!...The first post set me back 5 years

Was she yelling at the crowd pointing a guy out?....or yelling at the guy doing the looking. If I was the guy....I would have said...Hey...I am an Astronomer by trade.......I just doing research study (on Uranus)

IDK....(to me) that inside is what causes the dreaded "skid"....I feel like a TOO helps send the OB on a truer path faster....I can play both shots...but I am much more comfortable hitting low outside than low inside shots....(shooting a OB ball down the rail)

What is curious (to me) in the OP video is that for some of the shots...I paid attention the to spin of the CB and it seemed to not always match match the TOI he said he was applying. This is the first part of that run out video that has his explanation of concept. 7:40 if this video is the...

However ....in Golf you can bounce it off the roof of someones house back on to the course and get a hole in one.
