Hello all, I recently purchased some new K55 rubber rails for my table and they are plenty long enough, but not as wide. I test fit one before moving on to gluing and there is about 3mm worth of space below the rail. Will this affect how it plays? Should I purchase new rails and send these...

I am looking for some tips to help become a more consistent player. I have been playing for about 15 years, and I am now 31 and don't get to play nearly as much as I used to. I did play a couple of sessions of APA in the last year, and I am at the highest skill level of each game. The problem I...

I am looking for some new drills to help me raise my level of play. I only get to shoot about 6-8 hours a week right now, and I am looking for a few drills to implement into my routine. Any recommendations are welcome! I am a pretty skilled player, so advanced drills would be a huge plus. Thanks!

I picked up my first Players HXT cue last night, and I have to say that I was definitely surprised by the way the cue plays. I have owned many cues over the years, and for the cost, it is hard to beat this cue. I have a friend who gets a discount on cues, so I picked it up for $97 total, when it...

I am looking for a jump/break cue in the range of $75-100. What ya got?

I was just wondering if anybody has had any luck or experience playing pool with a snooker cue? I am a bigger guy with thick fingers, and I like the smaller shafts that a snooker cue has, but have never had the opportunity to play with one. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

First off let me say wow! I have heard all this talk about how long it takes people to get used to using low deflection shafts. I found the transition extremely easy. I normally shoot with my Lucasi cue with stock shaft, but tonight one of my friends let me put his 314z on my Lucasi butt, and...

I have been playing since I was 15, and I am now 28. When I was younger, I had a lot more time to spend playing pool so I was a a lot more consistent back then. I have never owned my own table, so I only get to shoot somewhere in the 6-10 hour/week range. My mechanics are pretty solid, but I...

I am looking for a players cue. I would like to find a nice custom cue that has a stiff hit to it. I can only afford 300-400 right now, but I would love to have a custom cue. No particular style in mind, just looking for a nice playing cue. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :smile:

I have a friend who is looking for a 9 fott pool table for sale in the Kentucky area. He has about 1500-2000 to spend, and he would pick it up, and set it up himself. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

What are the payouts for the 10 ball division at SBE? I heard first was 20k.

I was just wondering what other pool players do to get the most out of their practice sessions? What types of drills, shots, thought processes, and pre-shot routines? I have my own set of drill and such, but I would like to see what other players work on also. I normally start out by doing a...

I recently bought a new j/b cue, and it has a phenolic one piece ferrule/tip on it. I am wanting to change this to a different tip. I was looking at white diamond tips, samsara, and extra hard talisman. I was wondering which would be the best tip for a j/b cue? I like the look of the white...

I have been playing off and on for almost 13 years now, and I am having issues with playing consistent pool. I am 28 years old now, and I find that when I was a little younger I never had this issue much. I have always played fairly well, and I go through my pre-shot routine everytime before I...

I recently bought a Fury j/b cue, and I was wondering if I could take the phenolic down to a flat surface and put a Samsara break/jump tip on it, or if I should replace the whole ferrule and then put a tip on it. I would rather go with the first option if possible, but either will work. I do...

I have to say that I was very impressed with Amsterdam Billiards. The environment, and venue were amazing. The people were real cool, and the tables played great. Met a nice gent named Sal that goes there, and even though I had never actually played it, we played some straight pool together...

I took a break cue I had just sitting around the house, and turned it into a monster! It was just sitting in a case, so I took it out, and took the weight out. It actually had a bunch of tiny little beads in it for the weight, so I took some wax, and put them all in the butt of the cue...

I have a brand new Justis Style case made by Vincittore, and two break cues I am willing to sell or trade. The break cues are in good shape. One of them is an Elite break cue with the wooden pin joint. It weighs 18 oz. The other break cue is a True Stick break cue. It is in great condition...
