    The Young Guns Match-Up

    Filler is like all top players today. He likes certain games in certain formats that suit his strengths or he won't play. Well, most players that will play him want to play, like him......the game that they like and use the format that best suits their chances. IMO, we don't have a goat since...

    Curious Where Top Pro Players Are Practicing?

    If all pros that can't afford a home suddenly quit pool, pro events would have to make HUGE changes because most all pros are dead money. The few elite live off the masses... Jeff

    Curious Where Top Pro Players Are Practicing?

    Most pros can't afford a table, much less a house to put it in. Jeff

    Balls: Clean or Dirty?

    I had to vote clean. I've never met a good player that wanted to play with or on filthy equipment. I've met a ton of strong amateurs and pros that HATE to play with POLISHED balls but also hate FILTHY balls. IMO, all balls should be cleaned as long as nothing that breaks the rules are used on...

    What A Dilemma

    Brian, Sorry to hear your going through this. We had a very similar situation in my family recently and it ended up being the flu but not coronavirus. From what you said in your post, I doubt you have coronavirus. Try not to stress over it if at all possible. As some have said, drink all the...

    Mezz Ignite CF Shaft Review

    I'm currently recovering from spine surgery. I don't have any saved footage or I would be happy to show you. Your correct about the human error. Human error is where the players fundamentals comes into play. All you can do is find a player that has a very straight and consistent stroke and get...

    Mezz Ignite CF Shaft Review

    Not sure how others measure swerve and deflection but, I do the following: Using a laser level, I put donuts on table and use them for test... I align a camera using same shot line and laser level. The camera is 1" above rail height. I shoot several balls down the shot line into cameras view...

    Mezz Ignite CF Shaft Review

    Good deal. I appreciate the feedback. I have never hit with a wx900. Not many around. I really didn't like the ignite at all, eventhough Mezz makes extremely nice cues. I may end up buying a WX900 just to try. Have a good one Chris and be safe sir, Jeff

    Hey Chris, How does the WX900 compare to the revo in deflection? I've used the Mezz ignite and agree with your assessment. Thanks, Jeff

    Joshua Filler … Psyops?

    Jay, I remember that. I'll never forget how impressed I was at how he moved around the table so fast, yet with deadly accuracy. I feel sorry for the younger people that never got to see things like that. All most youngsters know are what they are told. It's a true shame they can't knkw from...

    My son's been ordered to self quarantine.....

    I was able to get in touch with my son this morning. He said they are doing fine and resting. He did say that both of them are running a low grade temp and feeling a bit tired but, otherwise he said they are fine. Like some, my son is not the type person to complain. He was that way as a...

    My son's been ordered to self quarantine.....

    They live in Florence, Alabama. Trying to stay positive as they may very well test negative. I'm not able to be with him and that's hard on my wife and I. I started to not make the thread and wait until the test results came back. Then I got to thinking, they need prayer now, not just after...
