    The old undying ball cleaning quest/ion. Again.

    Didn’t feel this belonged in reviews so here goes. Any current thoughts on THE way to clean pool balls and the product(s) to use? My set is the Aramith Duramith. I’ve got the Aramith cleaner twin pack, and a bottle of Brillianize. I’m about ready for a quick polish/clean, not deep, just a...

    Best Dr. Dave Videos / Video sets for newbies?

    I’ve seen Briesath’s videos - several times. They’re gems and I’ll watch them again no doubt. I’ve got Poolology, but I feel like I need more visualization and foundational understanding before I can really pull from it just yet. Dr. Dave appears to go pretty deeply into some things that I’m...

    If you had ~$60 for one ‘beginner’ DVD...

    Hello all, Like the title says: I’ve got right at $60, and am looking for one good instructional video (DVD) for a beginner. I’ll eventually build a library but right now I’m looking for a single source to get started. I prefer a video because I want to see what’s going on rather than read...

    Another cue question: Viking or Cuetec?

    Hello, new to forum but have lurked for quite a while. Have played pool on and off for years. Never been good to speak of, but I absolutely love the game. I’m finally getting a table at home (8’ (9’ won’t fit)). Anyway, I’m looking for a decent cue I can call my own for around $300-$350. Am...
