Who's got some great side pocket drills? Over time I've elevated my game quite a bit, but side pockets shots need a lot of help. I miss em from all over the table, mostly longer ones. What are some drills to address this? Any particular spin I should be using to help the ball fall and not bobble?

I'd asked aramith on FB if I the new black CB was going to be for sale separately, since I really want a measles ball in duramith. My measles from like 13 years ago gets dirty crazy fast. They said the measles IS duramith now... but the packaging, etc all looks identical to what it was more...

Thinking of picking up a digicue blue, but I never hear about them on az. What's the consensus on these things? Worth it?

For me it's: Judd Fuller JT-1 Scruggs Sneaky (actually sneaky) Steve Klein Titlist Conversion Richard Black (maybe one of the baron models) I have the Judd, and another rare 6pt ivory Judd, so check those off the list. Still looking for the right opportunity on the others, though. I know Klein...

I'm downsizing to a smaller house, and I probably need to either downsize to a 7' table or sell the table I have now. Anyone looking for a nice refinished diamond pro table in the DFW area? If so, contact me.

Headed that way for a vacation, may wanna play a little while I'm there. Not bringing a cue, though. Any reccomendations?

I know this will get moved, but quit using photobucket for your pics people. On mobile it's the most god-awful piece of junk. You have to watch video ads to see one tiny pic that you can't zoom in on. Then after the video, there's still 90% ads on the screen and it takes forever to load. In the...

I've done it 3 in a row on a not super consistent 7' (TDF .82), and 2 in a row probably 10-15 times. I know it's not something that most people will keep track of, but if you do it 3 in a row on honest racking, you sure take notice!

I like playing with my Gilbert J/B (cocobolo), but the tip on the break shaft is not correct for the task (Samsara J/B tip). I want to get a player shaft for this cue. Anyone selling one, or how do I get in contact with Andy himself to order a new one? Thanks!

I'm having to refinish the top rails of my Diamond Pro, which has their usual reddish stain (non-diamondwood). After talking to Brian at Diamond, he suggested using minwax 225 (red mahogany) stain, and polyurethane to refinish. He said that should be as close as you can get to what they use at...

I'm looking to move up from my 7' legacy home table. My room can fit an 8' easily, and an 8' oversize will just have a couple of spots 2" tight. Some older 8' diamond pros came up pretty cheap, out of a bar. They may need a refinish. Should I jump on one of those or wait until an 8'...

I searched here, but couldn't find anything that specific. I got a nice used Brunswick table light that I would like to use to replace a ceiling fan currently over the table. I have the following questions: 1. Standing on the table is a no-no right? 2. After removing the fan, should I cover...

I borrowed a good level last night, just to see if my table/slates have settled over the years. Pretty sure they have. Here's a map of the readings. I have no idea what the units are on this level, but I'll willing to bet you mechanics do. From what I can tell, the left hand slate is not level...

I'll admit, every once in a while I like to pull out one of my Lucasi 707 one piece cues and shoot it for a while. It leaves a lot wanting (balance, etc), but do any of you guys ever like to play with a one piece cue for any reason?

I live just a bit north of the DFW airport, and would like to take some instruction. I'm sorta stuck at a plateau and I need some new eyes to help me improve. Any suggested instructors in the area?

I've got one of these: http://www.legacybilliards.com/pool-tables/7-ft-pool-tables/rylee.html (Or close enough to that one) No cash for a diamond, and no room for a gold crown at the time, so I got something to keep me playing, which it has (can't play out much from developing an allergy to...

Looking for a nice one of these used at a good price. Let me know what you have. I'm getting one of these b/c it fills a hole I need filled in my setup, but let me know if you've got a cheaper custom player as well (interested in klein, gilbert, judd, maybe others).
