Hello all, been awhile posting for me after about 7 months off of pool. I just got myself a 9ft brunswick with 860HR simonis on it(tournament blue), and as a first time table owner, had a couple questions: 1. I wanted to draw both the triangle on it(for straight pool) and also the head string...

I believe I know the answer but would like to hear what you all think. This is an 8ball question(in league play). First let me say I am a better position, pattern, strategy and safety player than I am shotmaker. I'll often miss difficult cuts, but if I start with a decent shot I can get shape...

Looking for a used z-2 shaft for $130.(based on past price on boards) To be used with a joss cue. Blueing is fine as long as the shaft is straight and not dinged up. Please respond or PM with type of tip and condition if interested. -MacGyver

I'm not what you would call a "highly motivated" buyer atm, but I am looking for a cheap playing cue. Wood to wood joint and a straight Z^2 shaft required, but other than that anything goes.(pref 18oz and no wrap but not req.)(butt doesn't need to be pred nor it be a true sneaky, non-points are...

here was situation: http://CueTable.com/P/?@3HQWh3MQSG1PCSO3QaQa3cQWh3cSys3hQSG3hVtk3hbaE3hbaA1kCSO3kPsu3kbOM3laQa3lPAT3lLpk3qURpMy_Shot:_hit_13_into_rail_trying_for_safety&&ZZ3rOrJHis_Shot:_Safety_off_8&&ZZ@ I am stripes, down to a table length shot nearly on rail, DEAD straight in so follow...

A little while ago I re-shaped my tip to Dime radius(from nickle) and I'm really happy with the results!!!! The only problem is that the tip is SLIGHTLY mushrooming near the end where the new tip material was exposed, and I'd like to trim it up a bit. I only have a willard dime and nickle...

Just wanted to vent a bit, but until reading the "45 degree cut angle" thread and watching Colin's "OE/IE Throw" video, I was a lot worse. I'm a very logical player, and my only aiming system is that I picture the contact point and then aim for it(using instinct to move aim over just enough to...

ignore dbl post.

given the table: START( %Cf8E1%Hl4Z8%Jl0T5%Kk0X8%L_2T4%Pq5O8%Qm0V9%RY0B9%Sk3W5%Tj9W2 %W[5D1%Xh7[3%YE6Z7%Z^2T7%[r4Y7%\h8C6 )END You are stripes and playing against a pro, so your a bit nervous but have been in pretty decent stroke. Do you take the 12 which is nearly straight in but granted a...

I've watched pretty much every "Billiard Club Network" video on video.google.com, they were very good 54 minute spots with advertisements, a 4 part 10-ball ring game, many 9ball matches including efren vs. corey and many more!!! I watch them periodically, tonight I just went there and found all...

Hello, i recently realized that my school library has access to many billiard books. Not all of them are hosted at my school so I only have titles to go on. so far I really only have 99 critical shots, and I'm about an APA 5/6 but I believe my fundamentals are pretty solid and I'm fine on most...

Hello, Forgive yet another "please pay attention to me" post, but I do need advice... I generally like to be the best locally at anything I do(personality flaw) and since I have started playing pool I've been trying to improve as rapidly as possible. I started 1.5 yrs ago as a banger and I'm...

Does anyone know??? Listen to this .mp3 where Kevin says he is canceling the tour: http://www.internationalpooltour.com/sounds/kevin/cancel.mp3 It is very shocking and he doesn't even go very deeply into the reasons!!! I've been hearing for awhile now from people on the tour or industry...

Hello, After reading some threads on where apa 5's,6's,7's play and the hitting your opponent balls in threads, I have a couple questions about strategy. What would you do in a situation where you can't run out, have balls in a cluster that don't have an apparent breakout on(even with BIH)...

Hello, Can anyone tell me how you typically join a league?(or how you guys joined?) I want to become a better player, but most of the places I play seem to be cash-game only(I cant afford it) or the better players seem pretty closed off on the only good table... Anyway, so I wanted to join...

Hello, I have a couple of questions that seem pretty simple but I just don't know the answers too, so while this is boring, it will be helpful to me :) I bought the cue with shaft used so I don't know many things about it. 1: Is there a fiber pad under my tip???(or something else?) anyone...

A little while ago, Bryan Fisher from Fisher Cues in Iowa was advertising some nice cues, but I also remember that the only feedback was self posted and that there was no website of their buisness. Just wondering if anyone has any feedback from them on buisness or cues? Thanks!

I just got back from an out of town pool hall(away for holiday) and someone attempted to hustle me. He was laying it on really thick(fake back story, the whole 9 yards), but since I was almost leaving and didn't care since I knew I wasnt playing I didnt call him on it. Anyway, before I went I...

This is using the free, opensource 3d modeler called "Blender", availible at http://www.blender.org The zip file also includes a .obj file which is pretty much universal. It is nothing special, but I took the time to get specific measurements from a cue, so its at least pretty accurate(and...

Hello, after searching for a long time to just get an *idea* of what specific spots mean, I thought it would be good to gather as much knowledge in one space so later this thread will pop up in searching, or it could be linked to. So please keep the discussion to the definition of specific...
