    I got all my sticks re-tipped with medium tips, and I gotta say, I hate them lol. I can't draw a ball to save my life!! Literally every single time I gotta do so for position, it's a mis-cue. Used to be able to pull the CB quite easily. I have a scuffer and a shaper but am contemplating...

    Had at it again last night for a short spell. Slowing down does help a bit. I think I look up from the CB when I play faster. That’s probably just one of a bout a half dozen issues.

    Oh my that sounds cool!! I'm not a league guy. Pretty much just down in the rec room by myself. If I can figure out how to reduce the file size of the picture on my iphone 14, I'll upload one.

    Thanks for the info, B! I will chase down some of those vids later on today :) Home is in SE Wisconsin. Not much practice for me last night as I got busy with the Honey-do list :) I'll have more time tonight. Can't wait to get my shafts back!!!

    Greetings from Southern Wisconsin! I have been reading a lot the last few weeks, and finally joined :) Like many have written in their own stories, I’ve always enjoyed playing. I played on my Grandparents Sears table growing up, at taverns and the union all through my college years (never in...
