    break cue shaft

    Break cue shafts I think that stiff taper shafts provide the best break all else being equal. Vibration of whippy shafts translates less force into the cue ball.

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    Poolhalls Many bars in Minot still allow smoking, but pool appears to be dying here also. I think the DUI issue may be a big issue for bars and pool. I plan to keep my drivers license so I can effectively do my job, so I don't drink much and don't go out to play pool much except at league. I...

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    I'm sorry. I read your posts as if you don't consider the health of workers in this discussion. If I mis-read, I'm sorry. I'm going to play pool, have a good weekend.

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    Your getting too many issues mixed up. Healthy workplaces have nothing to do with Health Care. I just heard someone say "Less Filling", I'm going to see what the heck they think they're talking about. Obviously it "Tastes Great" Peace

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    Since i deal with worker safety every day, I'll stick with that. When the Hoover Dam and Golden Gate Bridge were built employers on those sites knew that if someone died, got hurt, or did not like the work conditions they would be replaced by 3 guys willing to do the work. modern contractors...

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    A wager - perhaps If you have a piece of commercial property you can use for a few hours, invite the building inspector over, and tell him you are going to remodel part of the space to something unfriendly to wheelchairs (lots of steps, improper egress dimensions, narrow hallways, or something...

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    Dignified Response My way? My way would be everybody working together to better society. You know nothing about me. I am part-owner of a large construction company that promotes safety and profitability. Our employees are instructed and trained to work safely, but productively, and go home...

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    OWNERS would chose to endanger their employees and violate health codes for food prep if you let them. Owners do not and should not have the right to endanger their employees or the public. How long did owners use the 30 second rule for food on the floor? I cannot send my...

    Valley Table - Drop Pockets installed

    I have been aggravated by loud ball-return noise for my home table (Valley barbox) since I got the danged thing. Late last year I found plastic drop pockets, put them in a few weeks ago, and now I love it. One "plop" and nothing else. Now I can have it quite to not disturb others so much or I...

    Valley "Home" Ball Return Track

    I took my ball return track out of the table I bought (which had the commercial ball return system removed and this "home" ball return track installed). I don't know if it is worth anything to anyone, probably too hard to ship out of ND, but it is up for sale if interested. Will post pics if...

    Why Pool is devastated by the new Smoking Laws.

    Economy Decides So the world changes and some things will get left behind or the people and the economy adjust to them. Billiards halls have had adjustments in the past (spitoons, gun bans, and popularity of 8 ball versus 9 ball and straight pool come to mind) and either people accept them or...

    Temperatures warming for Minot, ND....

    warm clothes I live in Minot and recommend warm clothes for the drive if nothing else. Remember it can be 50 miles between cities and I always travel with a charged cell phone and warm clothes for emergencies. Slippery roads, mechanical difficulties, and poor drivers call for planning ahead.
