    Questions about draw stroke

    The way I think of it... The draw stroke is in fine gradations depending on the application (i.e. how much draw you need). You have to combine hitting low on the cue ball and a stroke where the wrist follows through and you create a controlled extension through the CB. The least amount of this...

    Pool Is One Of The Hardest Games

    Have you ever heard Allen Hopkins talk about his game? He certainly believes he was born to play. Of course there are people that are natural at it. Just like anything else.

    What's the best strategy for APA/CPA "points" 9-ball?

    Congratultions on your first win. Just the fact that you know who Efren Reyes is enough to put him as your avatar, means your probably going to run over virtually everyone you play. I'm sure your Captain/League Rep was like...ummm well...they start you out as a 4 and um, yeah we'll just let the...

    People wonder why pool isn't making money and rooms are shutting down.

    Ok, you make some good points. We essentially agree, I think I just might be more militant :D I'm just tired of having to hear these stories and then it matches up with my experiences and I lose it. But its all good.

    People wonder why pool isn't making money and rooms are shutting down.

    I've been bringing this attitude up for years on this forum. And saying exactly the same thing. Idiots like this guy on the phone are the problem. Not enough people get it...as you can see. I am a believer that business's fail because they should. So let pool halls go out of business one by one...

    Pro Player Max Eberle recalls "The Most Energetic & Electric Moment in Pool Times 10"

    I can't help but picture an AZ mob with pitchforks and burning torches outside of C.J.'s place in Texas. The irony here is the contrarian attitude displayed. Most players on this forum, are desperate to advance pool...? Threads like this make me realize that's just LIP SERVICE. And now we have...

    Someone please help me understand trying to sell a cue online without pics!

    Does it make any sense? No of course not, from a business perspective its foolish. And what works on eBay is having pictures..I mean look at Powersellers they all have pictures of their items. People sell all kinds of strange items, and normal items for strange prices. Only buy cues with...

    Anyone heard of this cue maker?

    David Howard played great. He broke exceptionally hard for his time. If you can find some video of him shooting I'd check it out. As for the cue...I would pass, you can get a better cue for whatever money this guy is willing to take for it.

    TOI vs TOO - CJ vs Mike Sigel

    If anyone thinks these guys just use one type of english just doesn't understand the game. Whatever english CJ or Mike needs...thats what they will use. Its like a pitcher with a great curve ball, or someone with a particular shot. They market it, and try to get some dough. Maybe on the SHOTS...

    League players are strange people

    Ok so the question is... is the behavior described typical of the APA? The answer is..... sometimes. I don't know how many teams are in your league, or how many APA leagues are in your area. But let's say you have 12 teams. 4, 5, 6 of them could be sandbag Vegas happy. Its a "landmine"...

    Pool's Dirty Secret From My Mosconi Experience

    Having been around the pool industry and the people which make up that industry for some time it is clear a culture of non-professionalism exists and is pervasive. The thin veneer of a well run tournament with well dressed players, belies the fact that those behind the scenes rarely do pool any...
