My understanding was simonis was pretty hard to stretch in the first place, and he really yanked on it hard when first putting it on, is it likely it'll need to be restretched? Regardin the line from spot to rail, I want the triangle to judge whether a ball is in the rack, not for actually...

Hello all, been awhile posting for me after about 7 months off of pool. I just got myself a 9ft brunswick with 860HR simonis on it(tournament blue), and as a first time table owner, had a couple questions: 1. I wanted to draw both the triangle on it(for straight pool) and also the head string...

The pieces are there just to judge how centered the cueball is, the length shouldn't matter... one could be 1in and the other 5in and it should still function the same.

I've never liked the propensity for ignorance to push back against intelligence. The best quality a human being has is the drive to constantly improve themselves, to never be satisfied with the status quo.... why would you sit here working against that? Most "smart", "educated", and "rich"...

Um.... Try googling "billiard scholarships". http://www.bca-pool.com/play/bef/bef_scholarships.shtml

As a small note, I am a magician, and it is actually called the "Faro Shuffle", and it is 8 shuffles to get a deck to return to it's original order. It is definitely a difficult thing to master, not many can execute it 90+% of the time. With regards to the the card throwing, I can throw cards...

I normally don't like bumping a dead thread, but I thought i'd give a quick update in case anyone else in similar situation happens upon the beginning of the thread. So about 2 weeks ago(roughly 2 months from thread post), I was moved up to an apa6 and so far have won 5-nothing against a 6 and...

Why not just make the entire cue out of steel instead? It's not like cues have to be wood(with fiberglass ones). To answer, NO, i don't. One, its going to be heavier and harder to accelerate. Regardless of what some may think(ooh steel is harder than wood), what matters is how much momentum...

Just want to say I see Zim everyweek at Baxter's on Wednesday, has some great cues and does great work... It's a great thing to have a cuemaker on site at league, I wish more players would get it in their head that they don't have to play with a worn down 20yr old tip or a super sticky dirty...

Thank you for the advice, to clarify I do play a bit of 14.1, snooker, one pocket, and a lot of games. My pattern play is pretty strong, and I can play a lockup safety if the runout isn't there. The things that stop my runout are usually getting an unlucky breakout, getting just a cm too far...

I believe I know the answer but would like to hear what you all think. This is an 8ball question(in league play). First let me say I am a better position, pattern, strategy and safety player than I am shotmaker. I'll often miss difficult cuts, but if I start with a decent shot I can get shape...

A deal fell through, so I am looking again. Still looking $130 or $150 if it has a moori/sniper tip on it.

little bit of a bump going to be looking until wednesday or so.

Looking for a used z-2 shaft for $130.(based on past price on boards) To be used with a joss cue. Blueing is fine as long as the shaft is straight and not dinged up. Please respond or PM with type of tip and condition if interested. -MacGyver

To clear things up a bit more, I would also be interested in just a Z-2 Shaft 5/16x14 in any playable condition(blueing fine as long as its straight) for around $120 or so.(seen them go $125 on forums used) Thanks all for taking a look

Thanks for the PM's, i think i have responded to all. And thank you for the Jand J page. To clarify, I am really only looking for a Z-2 Shaft, but rather than trying to match it to my current cue or having an extra shaft, was looking for a sneak/plain package deal. So the Z-2 is a...

I'm not what you would call a "highly motivated" buyer atm, but I am looking for a cheap playing cue. Wood to wood joint and a straight Z^2 shaft required, but other than that anything goes.(pref 18oz and no wrap but not req.)(butt doesn't need to be pred nor it be a true sneaky, non-points are...

This is the big brother of the magic disappearing pencil trick!!!

I would think even a cheapy microphone and any consumer computer should be able to figure this out for you

The way I have told people to 'automatically' do the undercut is as follows: Aim through the center of the cueball to your aiming point in order to make the object ball. For outside english: Keep your back hand steady and just move your front hand to apply english with a 6-8in bridge. For...
