Why is it important to be able to shoot a dozen,
2 dozen or even 3 dozen shots without chalking?
Dr. Dave has shown thru empirical data that all pool
chalks perform the exact same way and there is no
discernible difference in brands of chalks when the
pool chalk is properly applied. If you chalk your tip
after every shot, just do it walking to the next shot,
your $25 designer pool chalk isn’t any better or does
anything different than the free chalk at the pool hall.
If the player does not adopt a consistent pre-shot
routine and adhere to it, then using a chalk that lasts
or remains on your cue tip a little longer makes sense.
In fact, you can probably chalk every other shot using
free chalk at the pool hall. Personally, I use BD because
of its cleanliness and resistance to flaking, not because
it is stays on longer. And the price seemed reasonable
for a carton box that I got several years ago for $80. Still
have enough chalk remaining I won’t need any for several
years. I brush my chalk when applying it to my cue’s tip. I
do not twist my chalk and core the middle. You hear players
squeaking the chalk when applying it. What a absolutely
stupid thing to do when putting chalk on your cue tip....OMG.
Anyway, I chuckle when I see guys playing with these premier
designer chalks when their opponent is using the free Master
Billiard Chalk that the pool hall provides. Both chalks perform
exactly alike when properly applied....just visit Dr. Dave’s website.
More drivel from you. You're the same type of person to chastise someone for using a Lucasi or Players cue. You're pretentious about your cues, though:
