    Point of a good cue?

    One of my lower teammates is always talking of how better equipment is and his point is "if it doesn't matter so much as stroke and stuff why don't pros use a cheap cue". Granted a few variables like low deflection shafts and such would make a difference but I always feel a good tip is all...

    How to elevate your game?

    Just curious as to how to elevate your game? I play as a 6 in the APA and can make just about all the shots I see majority of the time but how do I get to that top level 7? I practice shots and drills and I shoot better than I used to when I first posted but I can't seem to advance any further...

    Pool halls with memberships

    Hey everyone it's been a while since I've been on but still practicing. I recently moved in with my uncle in Anaheim, California and looking for a new spot to play. I was wondering if there's any pool halls in the area with memberships besides Hard Times as I can't drive at the moment so I'd...

    Back hurts?

    I just finished doing about two hours of just stroking straight through the middle and having the cue return straight to my cue. I stood up and set myself up for the shot each time but by the end of the practice I stood straight up completely and my back felt like it crumpled back in very odd...

    Rude or inappropriate???

    I had seen Efren Reyes just earlier and I had been debating for quite some time whether it was acceptable to ask for a photo. He has been my idol since I first started amazed by his games not only that I had the luck of not only seeing my idol but also being the first professional pool player...

    What things to fix besides ball control?

    I've been improving slightly in my opinion but I'm not sure what specific drills besides ball control to attempt. I can see a little dip of my cue when aiming and am working to fix that with a lot of time just going towards stroking the cue ball back and forth from rail to rail. p.s one ball...

    What to do with this cue?

    Just recently after letting my mom know I would be with my dad's side of the family for Christmas her and her bf state that they want to give me my gift ahead of time since I won't see them the day of. Since they don't know much about pool at all they think those cues from stores like Walmart...

    I'm still quite new to many aspects of the game and just wondering if anyone watched a certain video or guide that really helped them learn a lot about the game that could maybe benefit me to play better. P.S on a side note does the bronze by my name on the top right control panel section ever...
