Yesterday I had some time to kill before I had to drive down to LAX. Even though it's not exactly "on the way" from where I live to the airport, I decided I'd check out the shop. I had been wanting to go ever since I initially read this thread.
Corey is really nice and helpful with any questions you might have. I even got to play some 10-ball with him. Or should I say, got familiar with the slug doctor rack and watched him run out after I missed a shot.
He wasn't lying about torturing players with those tight pockets, more so for a newbie like myself. But then again, on some of my shots that I missed, bucket-sized pockets wouldn't have helped either haha.
This was my first time watching a pro up close and in person. It was impressive watching him hit center pocket on most of his shots and seeing how the cue ball is supposed to be played with proper position.
I walked out with Mosconi's little red book and will be ordering my Pechauer sneaky pete from him in the next few months. His prices are very competitive and I'd much rather support a local business (and player) than a big website.
