Pool chalk

[Mensabum]

I ordered 3 pieces of Taom v10 in blue color. 20$ plus apiece, talk about inflation lol. Also ordered a bowtie scuffer so i have two of them now. Plus i ordered some powder. Thanks for the input people!

Keith, you still use powder?

WTF would i do that???? Only chalk the halls ever had was blue Master or maybe green Triangle and they aren't even close. I gave all that Tweeten shit up a couple yrs ago. Taom only from now on.

Blasphemy!!!

If you get anything other than master for a pool room, it will walk away. Even master disappears…

YUP, I got a bunch of Masters and I have never bought any. I used to "acquire" a cube every league night as they put out new cubes. Went into my stash at home.

Yep yep. I bought a gross of Masters for a couple bars that I would regularly play at (before I got into Predator 1080->Taom), whether for fun, league, or tournaments. Every piece gone in a 1-2 month span. "Fck you at the drive-thru!" - a man once said.

The amount of debris & chalk dust is dependent on only 2 things: chalk quality & chalking technique.

Which produces less chalk dust, applying Masters correctly, by painting it on instead of twisting, or applying TAOM incorrectly, by twisting instead of painting?

Then quit your bitching FFS. You’re a real piece of work sometimes, go take your pill or something

SVB uses Titlist chalk and his game has gone up a level.

Masters would deposit more because of the chalk consistency but when you chalk Masters correctly, and away from the table and rails, only on a hard stroke CB after right after having chalked the cue tip would any immediately noticeable chalk get deposited on the cloth. It most commonly occurs on break shots when most players chalk their break or pool cue. And it’s not uncommon for a large % of players to intentionally, nervously but always needlessly over chalk on their break shots. However, the chalk formula used by TAOM is different than Masters and others brands, even Blue Diamond, IMO.

Yeah…so…..whats your point?

He also used it when he played like crap in that race to 50 against Fedor.

That said, Titlist is pretty good chalk. Not as clean as V10 and Pagulayan but cleaner than Masters and does stick better to super hard tips.
