    3 things you would change about pool

    No jump cues. No commentators that have never played pool. No "house rules" that go against BCA rules. No entry into a tournament after the draw. No handicaps...take your skirt off and play even. No referees that have zero knowledge of pool rules. Couldn't hold it to 3.

    Best way to ship a high end cue

    Google FedEx stealing packages and see what pops up. Commonly stolen is baseball cards sent to California to be graded for value. Since your cards have not been graded and appraised, your insurance claim will be zippo.

    St. Louis Louie vs. Archer 1990

    How much did the Heroin add to his game? Zero respect for players that died from Heroin. George SanSouci, those close to him verified it was Heroin, yet the pool world likes to glorify an addict. Commentators praise them and you wonder why big money sponsors turn away from pool.

    Cool Pool Lingo

    "He's cob-webbing the shot." (Taking so long to decide, that a spider wove a web over the pocket.) I nicknamed a local player "Cobweb" and the name stuck. He's a really nice fellow, but I duck the slow crawlers. I want to pocket more than 8 balls an hour.

    How to clean a mushroom?

    I wrap the ferrule with 3M Nylon fiber tape and use sandpaper strips. I change the tape as soon as it shows signs of wear. I wrap the ferrule and I'm selective in which grade of sandpaper to use. 1/2" to 1" strips. Patience is what makes it turn out perfect. If pool is a big part of your life...

    Commentators talking about anything but the match in front of them

    I've heard commentators from the booth that obviously never saw a pool table before. Every rack this clown would say " Do I see a 1-9 combo coming up to end the game early?" No, the 9 is on the top rail and the one on the bottom rail. I heard a live stream commentator say "Well, will you get a...

    Scruggs Plain Jane

    Bob Frey could answer your question. He worked with Tim Scruggs in his shop for over 20 years, as did Mike Cochran. I had many hour long conversations with Tim and I believe he told me he bought the butts for sneakys as blanks and not much work was needed to complete them. His shaft wood was...

    Do you have special shoes for shooting pool?

    Steel toed boots. They're the ideal tool to extract a refund from a cue maker that does nothing.

    Summer is here....who is responsible for WARP IN TRANSIT

    I wouldn't worry too much about warp. A friend of mine was in a car accident, which resulted in a fatality. New York State Police put his car in impound for a little over 2 years while they "investigated.". His Joss cues still rolled straight after 2 years in the car trunk.

    Looks like you are getting your pool movie....

    Because he's highly infected with TDS. He's a slug.

    Johnny Archer

    Charlie Bryant revealed the truth about Johnny Archer on a stream he was doing commentary on. Same clip, he told how Rempe demanded $100. to sign a cueball for a kid in a wheel chair that was battling Cancer. Somebody paid Rempe the $100. he demanded. Respect is earned, not demanded.

    Johnny Archer

    Charlie Bryant let the cat out of the bag on Archer. Zero respect for that slug. I once heard him tell Earl that he'd take him outside. Earl replied "I'll fold you up like the bag of bones you are."

    Swearing in Accu-Stats

    Choose your words carefully. Not given to profanity, I usually tell them to go commit a sexual act upon themselves.

    Miscue Limit

    I love to load the ball with juice, To see it dance and spin. I sometimes get 9 rails. It helps me get a win. I spin it hard with outside On every hanging ball It glides along the rails To see what else will fall.

    VIDEO: Is this the GOAT of one pocket outs, down 0-7?

    Before a match, somebody will always ask "How does he play?" The answer is "He'll be shooting at you with firepower."

    Billiards game in the Keys leads to man being attacked with pipe wrench

    Closest I came to being attacked, I played a truck driver on a regular basis 9 ball. He had a pretty sporty game, but he was always cocky and insulting. The last set I played him, I finished it 9-0. He looked at me with rage in his eyes and I said "You want me to book you an easier game?" If...

    Preferred tip hardness

    I like the shooter's feedback on tips. I've used Dennis Searing tips for a few years now, but I'm not afraid of a Kamui or an Everest. Many years I used a plain LePro. Just as important as the tip.....the correct chalk. Tip has to be the same diameter as the ferrule, not a 13 mm tip on a 12.5...

    Scammers hijacking accounts

    Wear solid footwear. It may not get you a refund, but I'll tell you there is no better feeling than wiping the blood off steel-toed boots, knowing it came from the scammer that refused to refund your money. What's really funny...they don't think they can be found.

    Sharking

    I had a heckler sitting in the bleachers during a tournament. I'd get ready to stroke the shot and he'd say "He's going to dog it." I asked a couple times if he'd knock it off, but he didn't. I went up and got a tall black coffee. Steam rolled off the top of it. I showed him the coffee and told...
