    Pool is not Golf, But………………….what if! We could learn something from the business model the PGA tour uses, what the USGA uses and apply those to the Billiard/Pool industry. I am writing this little article with extreme bias because of what I believe can be done and has drawn interest from...

    Pool & TV

    Some good ideas so far. Should we consider how to get the general public (millions of players) to connect to whatever it is they are watching?
