    HOW tips?

    Recently got a HOW soft. Not much use yet. Initial impressions are it plays softer than Kamui and holds chalk better.

    Billy Thorpe gone wild!

    Sad. Wish the cameras had just been turned off.

    Barry Mavros. I thought him and Joey Gray were fantastic in the booth.

    So I'm In Action And This Happens - WWYD?

    Was cool hearing the story again. Eloquently described for sure. I know both Brian and his opponent, but wasn’t there the day this happened. I gotta give kudos to Brian for stepping up to this player. Not a road I’d want to go down. It is tempting though, because have seen him give up some...

    That guess is correct.

    Trying to become a fan of LD

    That is substantial, and more than I would’ve guessed. Am wondering though, how much aim adjusted is required for 1/2” difference at 30” away?

    Trying to become a fan of LD

    I’ve now tested out a few LD shafts. Honestly am not seeing a big difference between these and solid maple shafts. At least not as large of a difference as I expected. The amount of change in my aim adjustment seems to be minimal across the entire spectrum of shots. Wondering if it’s the...

    9b Spot Opinions Needed

    There’s never been a truer statement! Hope this matchup continues, I’d like to catch the action. Definitely would be entertaining to watch. What do you think is a fair spot? I say it has to be big because of the road player’s mental toughness.

    9b Spot Opinions Needed

    I’d say Green Light (that nickname cracks me up), needs the called 8 and as many games on the wire as he can negotiate.

    A HUSTLER MEETS AN ARTIST, from Sports Illustrated 6/27/1977

    I basically lived in Larry’s pool room throughout the 90’s. What a great time and some of my best memories ever. One day he was practicing straight pool. He was talking to someone on a cordless phone the entire time pinched between his ear and shoulder, and had a cigarette in his shooting hand...

    System for Aiming With Sidespin (SAWS)

    BRussell, great review!! dr_dave, SAWS is intriguing to me because it looks like it covers a good amount of what the “old timers” taught me back in the day on how to get to the next level. One question, does SAWS also include discussion on different types of strokes when applying side spin...

    Might be a settings issue? I’m watching from Sal’s linked page. He’s streaming FB live.

    Hyatt bicentennial balls

    I’ve had these for about 25 yrs, and they’ve never been played since in my possession. No marks or dings, so I’d say they’re in pretty good condition. I don’t have the box or paperwork. Looking to find out about what they’re worth? Good set to use, or better kept on display? Thanks. Kickin’...

    Shout out to Mr. Drexler. He recently made a shaft for me and I’ve had other work done in the past. The quality is second to none. Feel fortunate to be local to this top notch craftsman and innovator. Been in his shop many times and have always enjoyed our conversations. A true gentleman that...
