    Don't know how many, or if any, of you watch this show, but Community, season 1 episode 17 (aired tonight) has an ending some of you will appreciate, and some will probably hate. One of the focuses of this particular episode is billiards in college phys ed. Very cool reference in my opinion...

    Honest Question about Paypal

    I'm just wondering what the general consensus is on AZB about the paypal fees. Obviously most people try to negotiate price when things are for sale in this farmer's market forum. I see 'Paypal add x%' quite often, but quite often that percentage is inflated past paypal dues anyways. Do you...

    Buckeye Burl Cues?

    A buddy of mine showed me this McWorter he has, and the cue is absolutely gorgeous. One of the woods in it was what he called Buckeye Burl, so now I have to ask who's got cues with this wood in it, and will you please post some pics of it?

    Title says it. I am looking to purchase a shaft for a 5/16x14 joint with plain black collar for the lowest I can get it. I know seyberts offers it for ~$180 shipped, so can any of you guys get me a better price on a new X Ultra Shaft? Or should I just log onto seyberts and get it in a couple...

    Video sites

    Well, theres obviously youtube.com, then there is also propoolvideo.com and cue-tv.com, but I was wondering if there are any other free video sites? I stumbled upon poolvids.com, which seems to be reasonably new. Looks like you can upload videos there instead of youtube if you want. Anyone...

    The Billiard Expo Experiance

    Its just after 2 AM, and I just got back from a full day at the expo. The day started off with an early wakeup at 7:45 AM, shower, then a beastly breakfast that had an awesome stuffed red pepper, and a 4 egg omelette containing chopped broccoli and green peppers! Then it was off to the car for...

    WANTED: Lucasi L-E56

    Hey AZ, My friend has a Lucasi cue, and he's big on aesthetics in cues, and loves the way this cue looks for some reason. Unfortunately its a uni-lock joint, and he hates how it feels compared to 3/8x10 or Radial. According to him, the cue also comes in a Radial joint, and he is desperately...

    College Leagues?

    Since the era pool is in right now is dim and abysmal, and some are trying to figure out ways to bring the golden era back, I'll throw my idea out there. College League(s). Since every other sport has a college league of some type, why doesn't pool, or billiards. Or if there is one, why...

    Random thought on cues...

    Perhaps its just me being the utilitarian I am, but as I sit here ill, I began to think about some cues. I see ebay auctions for Balabushkas and Szambotis and other exotic cues, and I wonder what made them so good? With today's technology we should be able to make a cue that is just as...

    Where to start?

    I go to an engineering school, so naturally, we have machine shops. And we have lathes! Since I'm going to be here for another couple years, I think I *might* try my hands at doing some cue work. Nothing like make a cue from scratch, yet... Are there any books/videos you recommend I check...

    Finding an instructor

    I shoot pool pretty good. When I'm in stroke- I feel unstoppable. My opponent just stands with rack in hand. I help the guys/girls I shoot with to the best of my ability, because I can and want to. I love to see them improve, and how they have! My problem is I feel like I've reached a peak...

    So I had the pleasure of seeing Steve Lillis do his trick shot demo today. i was set up to play against him after the show, but was too pissed off.

    Share Your Favorite Pool Hall Quips!

    So, thanks to my last thread that has gone down a freakin' cliff at this point in time, crashed and burned probably after the first page of replies, I got to thinking about times I've had in the pool halls I've been in. No- I'm not asking about your equipment. Have you ever been shooting with...

    Hustlin' a Hustler

    First, a little background: College kids do stupid things, theres no lie about that. I shoot pool generally in the game's room at my school. I don't have a problem boasting that I'm the best at the school. I've consistently beaten all the top shooters here already(I'm a freshman, so the...
