What are your favorite poses when taking a picture in the billiard room or with billiards equipment?
Films like Turn the River, The Color of Money, The Hustler, Shooting Gallery, Poolhall Junkies, and Stickmen or even TV shows with a few scenes with a billiard table show the same style of poses.
How pool is portrayed in photos or film has been stagnant. Its like a style from the 80s that no one wants to let go of.
There have been countless aiming systems, and cue material advances from break cues to jump cues and extensions and bridges and every other piece of the cue and cue case. It shows the industry development of products and accessories.
The cultural development lacks. If I ask young people like myself the most popular dance or song, that changes weekly.
Pool is destined to cling on to traditions that are being updated. The triangle rack has been replaced by a ball template. When will the pool player stereotype be updated.
Whoever is selling pool isn't selling it right for today's generation.
The discourse between players, organizers, tournament directors and billiard organization can be a great source for the lack of unity. Since no one wants to play along with someone that is mismanaging or making bad decisions its better for people to start fresh. Fresh leagues, fresh tournaments and no maintenance. Maintaining failed ideas of the past that never took off or have peaked is crushing pool.
