I love Diamond tables, and wish I could afford one for my home table (I have an older Connelly—which is fine). And I have never had the opportunity to play on a Rasson table. HOWEVER . . . I am starting to wonder whether Diamond is the best of the past but Rasson may be the best of the future...

Looking for the orange Katana soft shaft protective sleeve.

On Sunday the Diamond Pool Tour held its stop at Freezer’s in Tempe, Arizona. During the tournament, the commentators (George Teyechea and Mike Howerton) had a brief discussion of the issue of whether the Fargo system rates male and female players the same. That is, does a Fargo rating of, say...

Does anybody know what pin McDermott uses in its cue extension? (Not the weight bolt, the pin that screws into the weight bolt.)

I love the pool. I even think the commentary is fine. But all that hooting and shouting is stupid and pointless. And all that exaggerated King Kong posing after every match victory. And Dennis Hatch shadow boxing with an American flag hoodie and Jayson Shaw wearing an eagle head into the...

I recently had a lesson from a local instructor. A week or so later he texted me, asking how my stroke was coming along. I thought I might as well tell him the truth, so I composed this little ditty: A POOL PLAYER’S LAMENT My stroke is a joke, and my style is to choke. I once got shape, but...

The Italian company which markets the BeCue also provides outstanding service, as my recent experience shows. My 5.1 shaft developed a pinhead size chip in the paint (no doubt my fault). I contacted the company for advice about how best to touch-up my paint job. Instead, they insisted that I...

Just received my new BeCue carbon fiber cue. My cue is the style they call a "Sneaky Pete," presumably because it has colored points in the butt. The basic cue, which they call a "Bare Naked," is an all black carbon fiber butt. The shaft on all their cues is carbon fiber with a flat finish white...

How often are the scores on FargoRate updated? I played in a local Fargo-reporting tournament a week-and-a-half ago and the games have still not be added to my Fargo rating.

I want to add a screw-in cue extension to my OB playing cue. Since OB does not make one, I am wondering whether any of the extensions from other cues might work with the OB. The OB weight system has 1/2 X 13 threads in the butt. I am thinking that if any if the other extensions use this...

A couple of years ago vendors were selling various kinds of "fancy" chalk holders, precious metal, wood inlayed, etc. (I am talking about the actual chalk holder, not the dongles that people attach to the holders.) Now all I see are cheap plastic or rubber holders and the occasional boring piece...

Pool chalk is by its very nature messy. But I hate it discoloring my shaft and hate it getting all over my hands. So what is the CLEANEST brand of chalk on the market?

I am looking for joint pins for the Turbo Lock joint used by Players in their break/jump cues. Does anybody have them?

Does anybody know the specs for the Turbo Lock joint pin used by Players? I want to make my own custom joint protectors and I cannot find the pins. Hoping one of the standard pin sizes is compatible. HELP.

It seems to me that the percentage of left-handed pool players is way higher than the percentage of left-handers in the general population. Could this be true? Any explanations?
