    The Keith McCready Story Has Been Released

    You trying to make me cry. That's most loving thing I've ever read. I can identify with that because my wife and I have been together for more than 50 years. I'm a number of years older than she is. I know it's most likely I'll be gone before her and she's going to be alone. We have no...

    The Keith McCready Story Has Been Released

    Wow that's about as bad as you could have for a pool player. A lot of people suffer failing eyesight and get along. but macular degeneration it is almost makes it impossible.

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    The problem is though the guy who just nick the ball and put you behind another ball playing safe when he has actually has a shot that could be made. I've been watching some of the current matches and these guys are unwilling to shoot at anything. All they do is play safe trying to get ball in...

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    Yeah also most players weren't very good at kicking. Guy snookers you even with a workable shot and gets ball in hand. It didn't take long though everybody was kicking better and kicked balls safe they hit the correct side of the ball and so on with just the right speed. Created a whole new...

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    There's various ways of playing. We often played Ring games and we had this real reckless way we played. On a scratch you shot from behind the line, if the next ball and rotation was behind the line you just threw it down and shot the next Ball. A majority of people that played if you scratched...

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    No because you could only push on a miss that hooks you. Rollout you can push just because you don't like the shot hooked or not.

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    A couple of guys used to come to my pool room who played together and bet pretty high. They had an interesting game they played where anytime a player missed if the other player was hooked he could push. Eliminating the luck of a miss. I'm not so sure that couldn't be Incorporated in some form...

    Old School 2 Pushout 9 Ball

    I used to prefer to play what we called "Any. Two". If I push out and you accept the shot, you're under the same risk as I would be if you gave the shot back to me. Most of the time when I would say one matching up Any Two, the guy would always come back with no two by the same player, a lot of...

    Original Balabushka bumper

    You're not completely wrong. AI doesn't seem to know the difference between what's real and what's a joke. I've read some really messed up information lately.

    Original Balabushka bumper

    I don't think anybody has said the price is a ripoff. I'm going to get them. I know I can't get top dollar for the cue because I don't have original shafts. It's a nice cue though with a Burton Spain butt. I've had this cue since 1980. I have another Balabushka with one original shafts and one...

    Original Balabushka bumper

    It would be for originality. Some years ago I sold another Balabushka I had at the BCA show. I foolishly took the bumper off this cue because the other one was very worn. I had played with that cue for years. I have no idea what I did with the old bumper and now this cue has no bumper. I have...

    Original Balabushka bumper

    I am assuming you sell them? How do I order a couple. I know I can sell the cue without the bumper but would rather have it in there.
