All further Posts on this subject will be in the Aiming Forum. OK aiming systems are great, I say learn as many of them as you can, I know and use several of them every time I play. Any knowledge you can have to make more balls more consistently is great, just consider them as another club in...

OK aiming systems are great, I say learn as many of them as you can, I know and use several of them every time I play. Any knowledge you can have to make more balls more consistently is great, just consider them as another club in your bag, a Golfer has more than just a Driver and a Putter in...

Finally after over 1 1/2 years of living with F'd Up Rails and Pockets I'm having my Rails Reconditioned by Ultimate Billiards. The Rails went off today to their shop, I'm having them put in new Extended Sub Rails for 4 1/2" Pro Cut Pockets (No More Shims, Yea), New Brunswick Superspeed Rubber...

This is a WARNING for anyone in the DFW area that has a Pool Table that needs any type of work done to it, DO NOT USE DFW BILLIARDS FOR THE WORK! they will Butcher your Table!!!!!!!!! I know this is a long Post, but if you or anyone you know has a table that needs work it is worth the time to...

My Nephew and I went to Richardson today to play Pool at a room called the Billiard Den. Got to play on a 9 ft. Gold Crown 1 with Pro Tight Pockets, it was a blast!!! I had been there once before about 10 years ago. It was really nice to be back in that kind of environment again, if only for a...

I bought my Table about 11 years ago, it's an 8 ft. "Olio" (Chinese Brand). My understanding is that they make Clones of the Brunswick Gold Crowns. I know some of the History of this Table, it was originally in a Room called Pugsley's Library in Dallas off of Walnut Hill in the mid 90's, then...

Just for fun, If the Legends of Yesterday like Willie Mosconi & Irving Crane were alive today and in their pool playing prime, how do you think they would fare against today's top players? Can you imagine Willie Mosconi vs Efren Reyes both in their prime! how much would you pay to see that...

CJ Your stories about your life on the road as a Player are great and tell a lot about what that kind of life is like, (a cautionary tale indeed)! But I was recently reminded that Dillard Allen had passed away some years ago, and that got me to thinking about all the people I had known over the...

Anyone else here watch the UK Championships and the Lisbon Open? Congratulations to Ronnie O'Sullivan & Stephen Maguire respectively on their Wins! Especially to Stephen Maguire for winning Lisbon! Shame there couldn't be 2 winners, Matthew Selt played a hell of a Final. (After some research...

6 Reds game on YouTube - http://youtu.be/Chgios9P6Cc I've been watching a Snooker Event on YouTube called "6 Red" where they play the frame with just 6 Reds (hence the name). It's a lot faster game than the traditional snooker with the 15 Reds, looks like fun!! I could totally see this game...

Thought some of you might like this, it's funny to watch these old programs. I found this earlier today on YouTube, the video is rough and poor quality but still enjoyable. Check out the Buckets on that pool table they're playing on!!!!!! I would never miss with pockets that size!!!!! If you...

Recently there was a thread about Thomas Wayne cues on the forum. I have been a fan of his work since I saw an article about his Cues in Pool & Billiard mag. sometime back in the mid 90's. After reading the article, I tried to find more info about him and his cues, it was darn near impossible at...

There have been other threads on the forum showing Billiards Artwork, but that Artwork was already completed and ready for sale or viewing. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago in my other Billiard Painting thread, I have started a new Billiard themed Painting and I thought it might be...

Yesterday I got a post from Predator on my Facebook page that they are coming out with a new line of Cues in Mid December called the "Throne", they are not on Predators website yet, so go on over to their Facebook page to take a look, They are highly detailed so I expect them to be quite...

There is a Poll on the forum about the venue for the SBE this year, I can't comment on that, however, I will say that the new venue must have a very weak Internet connection. I have tried watching some of the matches and cannot get anything but a very choppy & jerky picture. I have tried all of...

I'm sure most of you have viewed Dsorianos thread about the Custom Room he is building, that we all can't wait to see the finished results. This gave me the idea that others on here must have some pretty nice game rooms also, that they have put a lot of work and money into. You may not have...

I just wanted to let any of you that are interested know that the website is back up and running for another year. RandyG was able to contact me and I did send him a book that he is currently reviewing. He's been working on the material in the book for over a month and a half now, so apparently...

I need your help guys, I've been wanting to get a good Break Cue for some time now and the only one that I really know anything about is the BK2. I've read some things on this forum that are not all that positive about the BK2 and I've also heard that the ferrules can shatter or break if you're...

It seems that all of the Cue Manufacturers have gotten on the band wagon and are all now producing High Tech Cues & Shafts. It is important to remember that the Legends of yesterday like Willie Mosconi & Irving Crane etc... did not have this new technology available to them, yet were able to...
