    New Here? - Introduce Yourself

    Hi, I’m new to this site and wanted to say a few words about my love of pool. I’ve played a lot when I was younger especially in my teens at our local pool hall in the south Chicago suburbs, but military, family and work kept me from it until I retired at 75. Moving into a community of villas...

    Cuetec 4" Butt Extension

    Yes, that's what I'm afraid of. There are only 6" extensions which I already have. Maybe I might look for a butt plug insert that can take a different screw-in plug that has a 5/16x18 thread which is more common and find a 4" extension to screw into that. Not always easy with propriotory...

    Aramith Billiard Balls

    Here is the set I received. Hopefully is is an Aramith set, but because of the way it plays I'm still satisfied with it. Maybe you can shed some light on the authenticity.

    Aramith Billiard Balls

    As a follow-up to my earlier post, I received my discounted set of Aramith balls today and tried them out. While I noticed that the the ten ball's stripe is going the opposite direction of all the other stripes, the set is beautiful, shiny and plays like no other set I've ever played with...

    Cuetec 4" Butt Extension

    Does anyone know if there is a 4" butt extension available for legacy Cuetec cues? I like the 4" extension best and I have a 6" but it seems too long for a comfortable stroke. Searched the internet but have not found an extension with the 3/8x14 thread that is exclusive to Cuetec.

    Aramith Billiard Balls

    Thanks for the responses. I purchased my set of Aramith's off of eBay for $59 new unused in the original packaging, but the 10-ball stripe is 90 degrees from the rest of the stripes which I thought was not a deal breaker for the money. I'll see how different they play and sound from the...

    Bonus Ball

    They have learned many new games which they never knew existed and I was looking for a game that challenges them and allows their minds to get a workout and Bonus Ball fit the bill. They know the basics and I am using this game as a tournament between the teams we have put together. They think...

    Bonus Ball

    I know Bonus Ball died out years ago, but I found that it is a perfect game for a group of seniors that I teach and was wondering if there is any source for detailed rules for the game. Searching the internet resulted in general rules, but nothing that gives all of the details for the game as it...

    Aramith Billiard Balls

    Are all grades of Aramith balls even the vintage sets better than regular no name ball sets? I purchased a vintage unused set with a stripe flaw and was wondering if I am still getting a high-quality billiard ball set.
