My ideas I enjoy these contests thanks for the opportunity; anyways I took the chance to design a shoulder strap as an amateur. My design is composed of two straps running closely in a V formation attached at either side of the case just below the zipper for the opening this allows the case to...

i call mine Shillelagh. Its a mcdermott dubliner seems to fit.

Saw a guy in bar walk up to a table get down to shoot and slip on some peanut shells on the floor and fall in crack his jaw on the table and the chalk so when he final gets up from the floor his entire chin is a mass of blue smears. Funniest thing Ive ever seen.

I remember seeing a video about this a couple years back where the inventor talks about how he had to hack several decent cues in half to make the arm for it and how all his pool player associates were horrified when he told them it was rather humorous. On a slightly different note having say...

I had some thats the thing it still tore threw i said it was a cheap case didnt I.

My first cue case was some cheap 2 butt 4 shaft case that forced you to store the the butts joint down. In little time my joints had torn through the crappy foam packing and the pleather covering till the point my joints would be hitting the ground whenever i set the case down this combined with...

I like the idea of a pool reality show. This has potential particularly if you really pushed the hustle aspect of it, I think the creativity and savvy they contestant would have to show in order to pull of the score could truly be a draw. Unfortunately I do see a few problems already, 1. Whats...

I'm not sure but i believe Predator has their own special joints so i don't think the shafts can be swapped around unless you custom order specific joints.

I like the uni lock joint on my jump cue personally mainly because i only break that cue out for one shot and its quick to assemble and put away afterwords. I have never really had a problem with shot making because of it and the joint itself is as strong as every after with no bending. That...

Hey folks, holiday time has rolled around again and like many I'm hounded for gift ideas and after reading a couple threads floating around here I found myself wondering what people thought were the best books on pool be they instructional or stories. -Urthred

Why should I get one? Because when i play in public areas i used to set the chalk on the rail only to have various Bangers, children, and possibly leprechauns (this might just be because it was St. Patrick's Day and I was a little drunk). This has happened many times till now i keep it in my...

Excessive bridge use. It drives me up a wall when your playing someone and it seems every other shot they suddenly cant change their stance and learn how to move around a pool table but instead grab their little friend the bridge and spend several minutes lining up a simple shot with it only to...

well the reason i would like to learn how to get the hop on the break the cue ball does when the pros break is because if you watch them when this happens typically the cue ball stays relatively center table usually allowing for a good shot on the one and an easy run-out since the cue ball is...

I've been watching Efren and so others of the greats and most of them ive noticed have a break where the cue ball upon contact with the break that jumps up then sits in the center of the table. I was wonder how they do this I've tried several things but i cant seem to figure out how to...

Hey I recently loosened up my grip and while i get better action out of the cue ball and banks are easier it seems that its throwing my aim off for cuts. Does the loose grip change the action on the cue ball enough that my cut angles are being altered from what they used to be or is it something...

Here's one i used a year or so ago. When some one messes up a break or shoots hard and misses. "woo wee that ball is off like a prom dress!" usually good for a few laughs or at least a quizzical look.

Wow! didn't realize the pool scene was so big down in Little Rock I started playing a few years back down in Russellville and after touring around Arkansas mostly for school and whatnot I had begun to believe pool was practically dead in this state apparently I should have went looking in Little...

I've found myself playing lately in a worn out pair of sneakers and I've noticed problems caused due to this in my game. Well long story short in thinking about this Ive wondered why there wasn't shoes made specifically for pool players I mean they do it for bowling and golf. Would love to know...

Does anyone know of any Pool Halls within the Fayetteville, Arkansas area? I cant enter the bars yet and im sick of coin tables so if anyone knows of a pool hall that charges by the hour it would be greatly appreciated.

Always wondered why you never see hard box cases made from more exotic woods like ebony and cocobola is it just a cost situation or is there an actual reason like wood hardness or something. If its just cost then why not custom box cases made from say something like driftwood which can give a...
