    70 Inch Cue

    I'm a little over 6' tall and have always held near the back of a cue. I have used the Balance Right Extension (that goes in the middle of the cue) and like it. Locally a strong player had a Predator cue with the 8 inch extension on the back of the cue that he leaves on at all times. So he's...

    Stream or Video

    I recently purchased a new webcam and have been playing with streaming. Would instructors on here be able to give advice based off of a stream? Or is it better to just record video? Pro's and Con's of a stream Pro's real time chatting with instructors can setup requested shots or drills and...

    Help in Georgia

    I live a little north of Atlanta Georgia. I have been playing pool almost 10 years and studied the game to the point that I've been teaching the last 2 1/2 years. I love the game but I'm to the point where I'm at a plateau and can't seem to get any better in my game. I have a good preshot...

    Degree of Difficulty?

    I was playing earlier and came across this shot. First I grabbed my jump cue. Then I noticed it was a full ball jump over the 8 ball and then I would be hitting the 6 ball on the wrong side. I told my friend I'll just masse the shot a little. What would you say the difficulty of this shot is?

    Trick Shots For Kids

    I've been teaching at the Georgia Billiard Academy and the kids that come in absolutely love trick shots. Not just when I execute them but when they can do them. Does anyone know some good Trick shots that can be setup relatively easy and executed without a whole lot of skill? I've got Mike...

    Pool Journal

    I recently saw a video and a player had a "Pool journal". This was a little notebook that he kept in his case. He showed he had draw specific shots he had difficulty with so he could practice them later. He also wrote little comments about what other things he had difficulty with or what was...

    Wanted Predator Z2 Shafts

    I just recently purchased a Schon STL1-EB Cocobolo but I am so use to a Z2 shaft that I can't shoot with the Schon shaft. Does anyone have or know anyone that might have 1 or 2 Predator Z2 shafts with black collar + nickel silver ring for a Schon (5/16 14 pitch)? PM me if so.

    Break Speed

    How important is the speed of the break? At the GA Billiard Academy we teach to control the cue ball before we build on any power/speed. I tend to have the reputation that when I break everyone in the poolhall can hear it. I break really hard - usually around 23 mph but upwards of 25 or 26...

    Mental Game

    How do you block out all the distractions from your personal life? Whether relationships, work, or other stuff going on that may be on your mind. I've got a decent stroke, good fundamentals and knowledge of the game; but last night was the worst I shot in a long time and I just couldn't stay...

    Breaking Old Habits

    Most of us did not learn correctly from the start so we have developed bad habits. How do we overcome some of these habits which seem to have become ingrained in our game? 1. Jumping up on the shot? I'm getting better at this but I still do this from time to time. Other times I am starting to...

    Lessons from GA Billiard Academy

    So I was skeptical at first of taking lessons. I always want to improve but when I hear about other people taking lessons I listen to what the instructors telling the other person. Always seems to be the fundamentals and I think my fundamentals are pretty good. So I started taking lessons a...
