See Photo Below Ozzy is clearly using a line on the table to check his Pro1 pivot. When asked about Pro1 Ozzy replied "It's the dogs bollocks man!" followed by "Bob's your uncle"... and " I...I...I...ALL ABOARD!"

Anyone considered putting a GPS tracker in a case? You can purchase a small GPS tracker on ebay for $25.00. Might be cheap insurance to track down a thief.

A friend of mine has his cue case with two beautiful Prathers a break cue and all the usual accessories stolen. The owner of the establishment where the items were stolen put the word out that he had the whole thing on camera. The cue case and cues were found lying by the door a few days later...

The game is 8 ball and you are solids. 5 ball cannot be banked back across to side or to the corner pocket since the 6 & 10 balls are in the way. The 6 cannot be cut into the corner without scratching in the side - no way to avoid the scratch. It cannot be banked since the 10 ball is...

I won an eight ball tourney today. Paid $1200.00 prize & calcutta combined. I am pretty happy right now.;)

So I am shooting in a tournament last weekend and this kid in his 20's whipped out his smart phone. He then starts playing around with his strobe light app and shining it in all his friends faces at the table they are sitting around. Consequently it is flashing in my peripheral vision and its...

I purchased a Players Pure X Model HXT-P1 around a month ago. I was looking for a short breaker on a budget. This cue was $195.00 from Nielsen's Billiards (Joerackem) The first thing I had to overcome was the brand name of Players. I have always considered them to be pretty cheaply made. The...

Been playing pool for 35 years - had a job traveling on the road making good money which afforded me the luxury of playing on the road against a variety of players, some unknown and some well known. I got a call once from Hal Mix who was Nick Varner's coach. I met up with Hal and discussed the...

I play Masters APA and I have a supportive team.We typically play on one table so we can hang out for awhile. We all watch our teammates play their matches. I do see a lot of other teams whose members play their match and leave immediately. Sometimes the first two players leave immediately when...

Very few that's who. Outside of AZ world very few know or care about the state of pro pool. I know local league players who play competitively 3 times a week or more.The majority of them couldn't name three top players from the modern era. I really have no idea why any manufacturer supports...

So what is the defining factor that makes a business pool room? Is a sports bar with 6 or more tables a pool room? Do you need 9 footers to qualify? Can you have TV's everywhere with sports and be a pool room or does that make it a sports bar? Is there a difference?

Sudden Death Jedi Ball is played the same way as regular 10 ball but with a twist! Players are allowed to use the power of "The Force" Lightsabers are not only allowed but encouraged. The losing player is beheaded and his head is placed on the table in the Sudden Death Jedi Ball basket.

I had the honor of getting a sneak peak at the latest refinement aptly named Ultimate Bonus Ball. I was pretty excited.

Here is a PDF from Pool & Billiards Magazine 1995 Aiming The Secret of Pool? or Basic Instinct. http://www.sfbilliards.com/PnB_aiming.pdf Lots of different aiming methods discussed in this article. This part sort of jumped out at me. Aiming with Whitey Belinda touches briefly on the part...

There is no one on the planet who does not use an aiming system - all pool players started out using a system. I keep reading the term 'feel' player - a feel player is simply a player who started with an aiming system and used it long enough that the system became ingrained and they no longer...

When the guy at my tournament today pulled this out of his cue case.

Caught Stevie making a nice little CTE manual pivot. Pretty hard to spot him using Pro1 'see and shoot' but this one was an obvious manual pivot. It made me happy and that's all that really counts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIsH8Wv8v1o

Looks like a great deal! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Elvis-Presley-Home-Photos-and-Engraved-Cue-stick-owned-by-Elvis-Presley-/170920425885?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27cba6b99d

Anyone know where I can get a break or break/jump that is shorter than standard? Like 52 to 54 inch?

Forgive me if its not pool related. I am checking into the hospital in the morning to have a few hernias repaired. I've had worse surgeries but any surgery is serious. Just wanted to let my AZ friends know, say a prayer for me. Be back on AZ soon I'm sure. :smile:
