I then starting breaking with a break cue mainly just to keep my tip in shape . I started back league recently . This is my 3rd session with a 15 year break . One of...

    APA 8 ball score keeping

    I don't keep score but I would say from 8-12 is probably normal . I am in Missouri . I am a 7 and probably average 2-3 per match depending on who I am playing . If its pretty open and I am shooting good I almost always go for the out !

    Letting kids play on my table

    I would let 2 maybe 3 kids that were my sons friends play on it. Not kids I don't know well and not kids that have never played. My son is 12 now and he has been playing a few years. As for the birthday party with a bunch of kids I would say hell no.

    This is true and seen it many times. Some places don't keep up their equipment. I have ran 4 racks of 9 ball on a 9' table. I have ran 6 racks of 9 ball on a 7' table. This is when I was younger a played daily for years. Have not played a lot of 8 ball period. Played league for 5 years with a...

    tip

    I don't have a kamui tip but my buddy does and was not impressed. It's my understanding that a S is like a medium and M like a hard. I like Everest better and will be putting it on my Schon if it ever gets here. Really just depends if you like hard tips ?

    Are they going to do a season 2 of hustlers?

    Even though the show had several shortcomings I enjoyed it . I will watch any pool related show just because I love pool ! Pool of any kind is scarce on TV as it is . I appreciate whatever I can get in that regard !

    Pechauer includes them in their pro series cues. I think they are a good idea.

    Wrist Curl

    There are going to be various opinions on this but I can only tell you what helps me. I found that holding the cue to loose was my problem. I know a lot of people will say to hold it loose. However when I hold it to loose I find myself increasing my grip through my stroke because the cue is...

    YOUR highest run outs or other records at Pool?

    6 on a 7 footer 4 on a 9 footer These were both 24 years ago at the top of my game. I still put together 2 and 3 here and there but have not got back to where I used to be. Sure I never will now that I can't see as good. I wear glasses to see up close. Can't stand to wear while playing though.

    Schon STL 1

    I went Seyberts. Just wasn't sure if that's what Seyberts uses and Schon uses a different kind or slightly different color ? It will be special ordered and done at Schon. So really wanted to see exactly what they use. I like a lot of them as long as it's not to light.
