    Racking tip to get a tight rack

    The wet rack Supposedly, the moisture from your hand will have a negative effect on the rack breaking properly. Different sleight of hand techniques can be used to actually increase the moisture applied. Besides, your hands will end up all blue if you lose all nite.... Seriously though...

    Weight vs. Odds

    Ask fuller question "I give him the seven, the six, it doesn't matter, I run out every time"-to quote Jose Parica. What we are getting at is the strength of competitors involved. And HOW they play the spot. And how the opponent does at those two things...Be more specific, and youll get an...

    who do you think was the best full-cue jumper..??

    I really liked his one-handed full ball jump freezing the cue and blocking ball to a dollar bill. He didnt bet he would get over - he would bet he makes the ball. NUTS, I tell you, STONE COLD NUTS.

    who do you think was the best full-cue jumper..??

    Smokey Joe/ Stevie Moore TOTALLY AGREE!!! Smokey Joe Bartlett was insane. One handed spot shot shooting from the pocket, over a full ball at a handspan from cueball, and draw to the bottom rail without hitting a rail before it - - one handed jump-masse draw. BRING IT EARL!!! This was on 4x8...

    Everyone... Well, everyone cant be perfect all the time. Bad days, bad rolls, etc happen. Maybe a potato cip bag crumples each time you go to final stroke in a very tough predicament. Arse-holistic outbursts can be a players way of saying "I'd rather be a butt-face than be trapped." \, and...

    What female figure do you respect the most in this sport?

    rgrtg Hot-wise, Jasmin. I would shoot my girlfriend to be her caddy. Getting between her and Jeanette Lee would kill me. Jean Balukas was the man-beater. Karen Corr at peak was the absolute gargantuan brass nuts.

    Morro Morro and Paric had more action matches than should be allowed. They always played 9, 10,11, 12, 13 ahead sets. When they played each other, it took one miss, then the other would run the set out. Morro once broke and ran two and came up dry on game three. Amang ran the next 13 racks...

    power vs. speed on the break

    Well, The weight of the ball, and the velocity of the ball is all that matters. A pea at 5 mph wont hurt you, while a train will. Most people misunderstand-the cueball has a fixed weight, and therefore it is weight and velocity that compute. A 20 mph cueball, whether struck with a 21 oz...

    Many... Many low end full cues are made this way, titaniums, etc. You also see it in cuetec knockoffs. Some are just fiberglass sleeves, foam-filled, with a solid metal slug at th rear.

    I use... I use a 1/4 inch chisel and a small 13 oz hammer. Its fine to bust them. I have had good luck that way. If you are in a room and want to avoid cleanup, put tape over them.
