    Old cue for ID help

    West Germany was before the reunification of the two Germanies in 1990. So the cue was made prior to 1990.

    Very cold pool balls

    A friend of mine got a set of balls for Xmas. This saturday he forgot to bring them to the room.So the question is can he leave them in the car 24/7 with temperatures here in Colorado getting down well below freezing at times. Will very cold balls shatter when hit hard?

    One I found...Danny vs. Grady

    I was playing every day and was in my mid forties. Now I'm 78 and play a couple times a week and wear glasses. I think now on good day I'm 75% of prime still pretty good but not the same. My Fargo rating now is 565.

    One I found...Danny vs. Grady

    No I was not a top player of that time just a good shortstop that played 14.1 pretty good. I had a good day and ran a few racks for the win,thats all. For those that knew Neptune Joe Frady's speed I played him 9 ball getting the 8 and we battled pretty good. Joe played me 100 to 80 in 14.1.

    One I found...Danny vs. Grady

    Grady came to the Ballroom (Toms River N.J.) pool hall to see his good friend the owner Tony Cattucci in the mid '80's. I played him a game of 14.1 and beat him. Neptune Joe Frady(RIP) destroyed him playing 9 ball. In my opinion Grady was in that level just below the top players of that time.

    Solid vs layered tips

    I know this subject has been beat to death but here is my personal take on it. I have been using solid tips for many years. Recently I decided to give a layered tip a try.

    Are you excited about BLACK FRIDAY?!

    Screw black Friday. About 15 years ago I stood in line with a lot of people at 5 in the morning in the awful cold just to buy a new TV at a killer price. The doors opened and the mob surged in and it was a nightmare. I did get the TV. Never again.

    Cole Dickson's practice session routine

    Back in Jersey as a kid in the early '60's I would give lesser players the break in 6 ball. Most of them had not figured out that breaking in a ball was almost impossible.

    Short Rack One Pocket/Single Elimination

    Got this idea about short rack 11 ball from Mike Massey. He said put the 11th ball in line with the head ball. The 11th ball is racked in the back in line with the head ball per the flyer.
