I think Dr. Dave has some neat designs. https://drdavebilliardtshirts.com/

In the bars around my area, and in the leagues that are active, only one location has a Diamond table. It's faster, with less forgiving pockets, and the two teams that have that as their "home" location usually finish near the top each session. The rest of the locations have either Valley or...

A set of jumper cables walks into a bar and says to the bartender "give me a beer". The bartender says "OK, but you better not start anything".

.........and my parents were always calling me into the room to change the channel.

The Irish Pub on St. James is high on that list.

Looks like two 1 balls in there.

I happened to come across this article while looking for something else this morning, and thought I'd add this in here. Not sure if any other reference was made in the prior hundred pages, so apologies if it is a repost. https://www.albanyinstitute.org/albany-billiard-balls.html The...

It almost looks like the discoloration that happens from tobacco smoke. Maybe the balls get coated and the areas near the pockets are the "high traffic" areas on the table. And the cushions could be from smoker's fingers? Just a guess.

Sincere condolences, and prayers for a path forward with fond memories and positivity.

My experience with that word comes from when I did a lot of surf fishing. There is an organization called The American Littoral Society. It's a group dedicated to preservation of the coastline and all the animals, and plants that live along it. https://www.littoralsociety.org/history.html...

One of my favorites to watch, Happy Birthday Earl!

Well Played Sir!

I found a set of balls online, and it is claimed to be a set of Aramith Crown Standard. The box is labeled that way, with a price that seems to be in line for that ball set, but they don't look like any other Crown Standard set I've seen, much thicker font for the numbers. They look more like...

I think we all get tunnel vision occasionally. Being an accurate shooter, and always looking for the possible out, sometimes we miss the perfect safety. It's good when your team has different players that see all the options that sometimes get missed by the shooter.

This happens occasionally. Maybe more than occasionally. The rules state that if a sideline teammate calls the timeout, it's a timeout. The player cannot refuse it, the timeout stands. The team can refuse the players call for a timeout, but the player can't refuse one. The reasoning to me...

If you search eBay for "sport grip" in the billiards accessories section, there's quite a few available. I'm sure the big supply places like Seybert's and Pool Dawg have them too. One I've seen is a rubber heat-shrink tube that seems promising. Let us know if you do one yourself.

I have a couple other cues, same cues as the one I'm using as a break cue right now. I'm going to see if I can take out a weight bolt (if there is one) and try going with one of those for a bit. My GF has a "ballbuster" break cue, I think it's about 23 ounces, and I've used that more than a...

Just finished. Had a 110, and it felt sloppy. Scratched on the break twice, and got too wrapped up trying to break out clusters and missed the shot a few times. I think I like this. It give an actual metric to track and build upon. I’ll definitely try this again and again. It’s not an excuse...

This looks interesting. I like that it is different every time and presents a constantly evolving challenge. I'll give it a try and post up how I do.

The accuracy part is what I'm learning is a much bigger part than anything else. But after you can reliably hit your spot, some cueball control helps, especially in 9-ball. I never could get that control with the phenolic like I can with my leather tip. The White Diamond seems like an...
