I think the last 17-24 players are lucky they got anything at all. Most of the tourneys around here pay out 16 spots with a 64 person field. I understand that group is playing for a larger portion of...

Been a while since I've came here, but I'll throw in my few cents worth.
Not sure how many divisions/teams we have in our areas but we are having 7 teams sent to Vegas this year. Last year it was...
I go through Progressive and the check is for $750 and my deductible is $500. The check is made out to me and my lien holder because Progressive has not removed them as my lien holder. I finished...
Can you cash an insurance check to repair a car that you own that was damaged by another? Some of my friends say that you can but I am a little apprehensive. I am not sure that I want to spend $500...
So I come home from work last night around 5:30 and parked my company truck where I normally do. I had to go to APA league and usually when I park I head upstairs to my apartment and rest for a half...
No real reason, just been thinking about it. I have tried the Predator BK and my friends phenolic tipped break cue and was curioous to what people thought is desirable in a break cue. I may just...
...what specifications would you have? Length, weight, phenolic/leather tip, shaft diameter, joint collars material, Rock Maple/Ash shaft? Would you have one solid piece of wood for the butt? I am...
I have sometimes noticed that as well. Some of it is ego, some of it is just their personality that they carry all the time. I never got any "hi, how ya doin's" or respect from one such player who...
I sold mine on ebay about 3 years ago now for more than I paid for it. It was all beat up and chalk blued and needed refinishing badly. Someone liked it.
It was a great hitting cue and I am really...
Thats good to overcome. At first I would get nervous with better players watching me play. As my game progressed they started watching more and staying around. I am a little different I guess though....
I would probably cheat the pocket if that is a possibility and use high left english to spin the cueball back to the bottom of the table. Have to put a hard smooth stroke on it. The throw would be...
Gonna ramble because I have been drinkin, so beware....
I agree with everything you said in that post Bassn7. The only thing that ends up happening is that eventually all the lower players move up...
It's been a while since I posted. Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

I was playing in a team event at Long Beach, WA that was hosted between two bars. We were on our way through the winners bracket until we eventually lost in the semis. I was 11-0 in games up to the...
These guys are crazy. My high run is 86 and haven't played very much. Love the game though, wish there were more big tables around.
Here is a good link to some other tourney final.

I just wish we could see some of this stuff. I have never witnessed in person,TV, computer any full length snooker matches like this. If anyone has any links that WORK it would be nice to see. Nice...
wolfy..see step 3. HEHEHEHE (it was there and has not been edited hehe)
Try these steps:
1. Take out coin (I prefer a quarter)
2. Flip into air in a spinning motion and falling onto a hard surface.
3. Call Heads or Tails (Heads being Moori, Tails being Talisman)
4....
Hey Golf-
Seems like the posts you have been writing lately have to do with the "best" items you are inquiring about. It is all personal feel with the way people play and how they move the cueball...
Happens all the time, especially with custom cues. You make an order for a cue based on word of mouth and 3+ months later you get your cue and don't like the feel. Off to ebay it goes. Seems like I...
Very Cool NaZ, I see it now...NaZ's Shafts... buy em for Atlas' price and sell em for $130...cash money.
Yeah that seems like a pretty good deal. After all was said and done I did not care for the hit of it. But it may have been because of the fact the taper was a little long making the shaft less...
My brother got me a $100 Gift Certificate to a poolhall in Seattle so I decided to use it towards a Tiger X-shaft. I think I paid another $40-$50 on top of that. Then I had my ringwork put on for...
Have any of you have experience with Ash shafts? One of our local cuemakers has made several ash break shafts for some of the local players. I have tried it out and other that being a little grainy...
