    14.1 rule I should know

    Ok, new situation. On the 14th ball the player misses the shot and pockets the cue ball. Now BIH and the 14th and 15th balls are both in the kitchen behind the head string. Assuming the incoming player cannot shoot directly at the 2 balls and must cross the head string first, can he take an...

    SIMONIS FUZZ

    My almost 10 year old 860HR, although showing some wear still plays extremely well. No pilling, no fuzz. I am really interested in hearing what Simonis has to say as I am close to recovering my table.

    Streaming Services

    I have to say try to avoid DAZN. Very difficult to work with. Tricky subscribing and canceling.

    Waste of money pool items

    And don't forget DAZN, the biggest scammer and waste of money for a sport streaming service.

    Stay away from DAZN

    So I signed up with DAZN to watch the Mosconi Cup. I then canceled right away to avoid any additional monthly payments. When I recently received a second charge, I contacted them to ask for a refund. They told me I had signed up for their yearly subscription where I make monthly payments. And...

    Pool ball colors clarification

    Clearly they have f**ked this up with all these crazy colors! Now you have commentators being forced to describe a ball with a number and a color. Now you cannot be sure which ball is the 5 or the 7. So a commentator has to add a color. As in " I think he will be playing the orange 5 ball or...

    3x8-10 modified pin

    This picture tells it all. And I think it shows the advantages of a modified pin. But I am not a cue builder.

    Southwest Cue order wait is over

    A 17 year wait for anything, even a new heart is absolutely ridiculous. Even if this cue will make you a better player, won't you try to find something else that could help your game sooner than 17 years. Anyone one of us could be dead in the next 17 years, no matter what age you are now.

    Cloth color

    My understanding ( and I realize I may have it totally wrong) A traditional set of pool balls was given to a lab that worked on colors and visibility and they came up with the Tournament Blue color. They did not pick this color based on what looks good. They felt this color was the best...

    Another one of those posts that make you cringe but here goes: idea for game variation

    So in 14.1, I am about to break open the rack on a break shot and I have to call my next shot???? Seems to be tough call. Or do you eliminate the rule on opening break shots?

    20 dollar chalk?? What’s the world coming to?

    This is also what i experience at home with my table. No dust chalk anywhere to be found. the balls stay cleaner , the cue stays cleaner and my hands are cleaner. BUT, I have to ask. Where does the material (that the Taom chalk is made of) go? I'm think the paste like material is building up on...

    So Mezz has a new joint pin

    Maybe a stupid question. If one is considering an Ignite shaft, there should be no difference between the Wavy/1 or the Wavy/2 pin because the CF shaft is not wood. Right? Asking for a friend.;)
