    Question for old timers@

    I have a tube of Tweetens that has to be at least 30 yrs old. I thought I'd give it a try and it's still glue. I've changed 5 tips sofar and none have popped off and one is on my break cue. I use Elk Masters now on my 3 cues and they work pretty good and no mushrooming or touching up the sides

    The 2002 World Championship would've been Hendy"s 8th if he had beaten Peter Ebdon. He had 16 centuries during that event and he put it to O"Sullivan 17-13. O"sullivan had been saying he'll send Hendry back to his sad little life.

    Drills to correct your alignment

    I played snooker for so long and could get into the zone and produce big break after big break. When I switched over to pool thinking I could make everything in sight was my detriment. I finally started giving it my all and it's working. I walk up to the table,look at the layout then put my cue...

    Drills to correct your alignment

    I totally agree and when going good it's nice having the accuracy and getting pinpoint position. I have a few power bombs I like unleashing for a statement from time to time

    Distant flash in the pan that thinks he can just show up and win. Great talent but no mind

    Drills to correct your alignment

    I was sloppy lately and started getting better at my PSR this week. I put the cue at the CB prior to bending over and working into a better stance. My break and potting improved and today played pretty solid beating my friend 9-6,9-2 then 9-1. He asked if I try to skunk him and I said no you...

    OB slow roll to the pocket and stops at the very edge - foul

    If the CB is touching or close to the rail you can flip the CB upside down

    There were plenty of century breaks in the qualifiers and it'll be interesting to see if that level of play continues. I'd like to see Antoni,Stan and Liam go some rounds.

    Playing Pool after 50?

    It's funny I move around the table like a spring chicken still considering the health issues I've gone thru. It's been a killer waiting 5-6 hours to play the first match and my body wants to have a nap.

    Playing Pool after 50?

    I'll be 73 in July and good for about 3 hours of play. In the 1.5 years that I've been back playing I'm really enjoying it and have upped my shot making,banking and kicking.

    All the guys I knew in Toronto are up there in age and have wondered who's still hanging around poolhalls and playing.

    Playing Pool after 50?

    The guy I play with turned 83 last Friday. There's an old timer that's 92 and drives still and drives an hour to get to the poolhall. These old guys play pretty good still and nice to see them come out.

    Joe Rogan And Pool ???

    Pool needs beer,booze and cigarette money but that's not going to happen anytime soon since they have tied their hands from advertising.

    Jump Cues

    I don't jump much and bought a cheap knockoff Chinese cue to try and made 5-6 successful jumps with it. If it's a 1/2 or 3/4 ball jump i use my playing cue and a full ball I'll look at kicking
