...this site. I found this site & signed on less than a month ago. I have enjoyed it very much. It is pretty hard to find anyone knowledgable enough of this ART to dicuss it outside of a pool hall & even then sometimes the information & motives should be taken with a grain of salt & caution, as most of you know what I mean. Thank all of you that have responded to my inquires & put up with me & my 2 cent humble opinions.
However, I think that a name change might be appropriate. How about AZ Billiards BAR ! I think the addition of the word BAR might be appropriate because like in a bar one should never interject or discuss politics or religion. Just kidding of course. I posted this 'bar' thing because I caught myself thinking of posting an explanation of something that should not not be injected here as this site is about the ART of Pocket Billiards for the most part. It is not The History Channel unless it is about billiards history.
Until those adjustable bi-focal glasses come out nothing can be done for my eye thing but this LD deal has me perplexed. I know they 'helps' but I think they also 'hurt' me. Any insight as to making the transition will certainly be appreciated & I thank you in advance. Again this site has been a pleasure except for the occasional misunderstanding. Lack of or mis-communication or things stemming from them are the biggest problems in the world. I hope we all can keep that in mind and it is even more previlent in the written word where intent & attitude can not be taken from one's inflection & tone of voice. I hope this post is as well taken & helpful as it was intended. Again, thanks everyone & good shooting, even if you're playing me.

See your optician and tell them you want glasses for pool playing. You can get a prescription that will "fit" your playing distance.

". . . but this LD deal has me perplexed."

I'm assuming your talking about low deflection shafts. You don't need a ld shaft to play great pool. It needs to be straight with a good tip. If you want an upper end ld shaft buy one that has a good feel to you. As for adjusting to the ld, it will just take time and lots of shots.

I like how someone put it to me though, they are all ld shafts, with the correct bridge length.

Thanks. I'll have to try the glasses & that's what I'm thinking on the LD shafts too.
