    What beginner pool tip do you wish you learned sooner?

    Don't waste a lot of money trying to find the perfect tip, or cue, that will make you shoot better. Not that I ever did that.

    Dumping - caught

    You need to find some different friends.

    Dumping - caught

    Yep. It's an electronic trail that will follow you around forever. Try applying for a job somewhere, with this type of reputation out there on the internet.

    If you live in the SouthWest beware of this HUSTLER.

    Tell them to save their money, because you're so good there is no way they can possibly win. Next thing you know, there will a dozen guys standing in line, wanting to play.

    It's possible he died from old age, by now.

    Nothing complicated here.......just play until you can't.

    Need help identifying this table.

    Check the rubber on the rails. It's not uncommon for import tables to use a cheap rubber, that can turn hard as a rock over time. Then, it's like trying to bank a ball off of a 2 x 4. That "free" table can start to get expensive if it needs new cushions put on the rails. It happened to my...

    The CARBON FIBER Shaft With the LEAST Cue Ball DEFLECTION

    I bought a Pechauer carbon fiber shaft a few years ago, because I have a Pechauer cue, and I figured it would fit properly. And it does. Don't know how it compares, because I haven't tried any others. I like it, and it's much better than the shaft that came with the cue. But, I'm not sure it...

    Was pool better 50 years ago?

    I didn't say intelligence, I said knowledge. They are two different things. You don't need to be a genius to play pool, but you do need to have some knowledge of the game. You can gain that knowledge from a teacher, or from the school of hard knocks. It doesn't really matter. But If you...

    Was pool better 50 years ago?

    Back in high school, I had a physics teacher who said you can be the greatest pool player in the world, if you understand physics. She was wrong. Knowledge is always good, but it takes a heck of a lot of practice, too.

    New Dynaspeheres Set

    I bought a set of Vanadiums a few months ago. Nice set, that I use on a regular basis. These new ones look very nice also, but I'll probably save my $100, as I don't need them, and I have plenty of other things to spend money on, right now.

    Should I paint my GC4?

    There's your answer. Painting the table and the basement, is twice as much work as just painting the basement.

    It's about 25-30 minutes from me, depending on traffic. I might go.

    Keith Josey Merry Widow

    I know it's been a lot of years, but it only took about 3 months for Keith to deliver my sneaky. As for the prices, they were accurate when I put in my order, and Sherri quickly called me (within a day), to confirm the order and price. I suspect they still answer the phone, so just give them a...

    Keith Josey Merry Widow

    Go to his web site, and check the price for a new one. Looks like the Merry Widow cues start around $550, not including the extension. FWIW, I bought a basic, rosewood sneaky from Keith, in 2011, for about $325. It has held up great, and is a great player. I think his cues are outstanding...
