Much thanks to everyone. I'll print this page and we can decide where to go when I get there. I love going to this site as its always a wealth of information.

Will be spending the night there soon. Looking for something to do and since I'm meeting up with the Wife I figured we'd go shoot some. Any recco's for rooms, or bars with well maintained equipment in the area?

A built in Q-Claw type holder is a huge idea! I know most people who carry one that holds more than 2 cues can't fit the sucker in the case. I love my cue rest but hate carrying it.

I used to be really into radio. XMit = transmit, something you aspire to do well in the radio hobbies.

If you are wondering if this cue will make you shoot like Efrin....please. It's just a cue no matter how you slice it. What works for Efrin might not neccessarily work for the next guy. Buy what you do good with and put the marketing industry out of business. Be your own player. Don't be a...

I posted this in another thread, but what do you all think of this? Having satellite touneys for the IPT kinda like the WPT does. Have a local tourney with a small buy-in to give away a spot at the IPT tour? IMHO this would generate alot of interest from a marketing standpoint, as well as a...

I don't know what you all will think of this, but. The majority of 8 Ball players are in the local BCA bar leagues. Do you think that the IPT would do much better to market at the lower level to start? Say KT took out a small amount of money and hired a team of people to advertise in the taverns...

Nice to see you back JAM 1PRoscoe is that Paul Wall???:D

Unfortunately, I can in no way say that I am close friends with the Jacoby family. However, I have been a staunch supporter of their cues and have utilized their services very often and I know this to be one of the most stand-up businesses I have had the pleasure of dealing with. I am very...

I used to swear by Lepro hard tips. I have since switched to a Talisman Pro Med. and I can't believe what I have been missing! Hits like a dream, lasts forever and needs practically no maintenance. Even though mine looks like it's shiny and won't hold chalk it still does, seems like I never need...

Hopefully we're all thinking of real 8 ball. World Standardized or BCA rules Doesn't matter what falls on the break, as long as something falls.

I have to say I'm pleaseantly surprised by the majority of the comments on this thread. I would have bet on a 9 ball landslide. I'm glad I was wrong. Cane you hit the nail on the head. Personally, I like the 8 on the 7' I like the nine and 1 pocket on the 9' But if someone wants to play...

Running a rack on a 7 footer with high nap cloth with 14 other balls to navigate around is not as easy as everyone talks about. Running nine balls on a nine foot table, where there is much more room between balls and the cloth is faster than a ferrari....much easier. Just as an example...

The stand alone cases in anything bigger than a 2X4? And if so does anyone know where to get them? And are they worth a squat? (I'm speaking of the ones with the fold-out wire stands) Thanks.......XMit<---------Carries cues for two.

This is an attempt to mislead the market, plain and simple. The commercials show Mr. Hodges cleaning a table, and then advertise the "Chalk Off" product. An example. Don't you think Cuetec would have a problem if Scorpion made a commercial showing Earl playing, and touting the features of...

Duane, I never said the rooms were bad places to play. I simply said to call ahead, I travel a good clip to go to the Green Room and last weekend to my dismay realized I was there 3 hours before opening. This is because they change hours on what seems like a whim, and I was foolish enough to not...

Careful and call ahead before you venture to those joints(Cue-Nique and The Green Room). They have the same owner and are prone to very quickly changing hours. Over on the east side is a sports bar called Pooley's that has decent bar boxes (clean and well maintained). Stay away from the pool...

How about the pool table outside in the Drew Carrey Show(At Drew's house). One episode he gets pissed off and goes outside and starts knocking balls around in the rain.

New one...just last night. I meet up with my girlfriends friend and her fiance'. Guy spends twenty minutes telling me that his McD shaft cost 299 bucks. Then he proceeds to show me a neat looking little McD with nice inlay work and a stacked leather wrap. He tells me the whole package with the...

If I start getting tired after a long session my grip arm tends to "fly away". I start to raise my elbow slightly and it draws my cue tip slightly off-center. Of course I never see it until someone tells me.
