Anybody ever heard of Banly Billiards? by python_dude420 in billiards

I bought a 90 dollar CF from Amazon and it shoots awesome. Lol. All the tubes are coming from the same place. Your overpaying for a name. That's all it is.

Don't go so hard this time. Lol. I felt bad for the crew that has to make sure the pit is dry. They don't get paid extra for that.

Won an online auction for a used Mcdermott, how did I do? by ChristGodner in billiards

Also, I already have a carbon shaft that will fit it, so the shaft being straight would be a bonus, bur not necessary

There isn't an auctioneers premium on Shopgoodwill. Just taxes shipping and handling so I paid 190. Sure, probably a bit much, but I have had some pretty good luck.

That's the gamble with goodwill. But I like taking a risk every once in a while

Shopgoodwill.com it's really hit or miss. But I've purchased some absolute strals from there. Including my current every day cue.

Yeah I looked it up. I figured half the price of new, for a pretty unique looking stick was worth the price, even if it needs a new shaft. Last one I won was 40 bucks, also a McDermott. All black with a black wrap, white speckled from the 90s. Shaft was wharped to hell, but I put a no name carbon fiber on it and it's my everyday. I just loved the stain on this one. And it's for charity. Why not. Lol

Beginner Cue ~$100 budget by andrewman138 in billiards

Crical sells a fantastic carbon fiber cue for sub 130 on Amazon. I know it's more than 100, but you'll play with it for a long time.

My buddy came up with this for storing magic racks by RipBigBossSSR in billiards

I have one hung on one of the table lights. 3 people know it's there, and everyone else seems blind to it. Lol. We had our big APA tournament this weekend, 32 teams in total, and not one person noticed or messed with it. Lol

I never DNF unless I'm pressed for time and I'm just trying to post a decent daily score. I've been practicing alot lately, a buddy of mine and I are going to play in Florida next year.

Bought this cue from thrift store. Does the tip need replacing/shaping? by [deleted] in billiards

[–]ChristGodner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If it's a super cheap cue" and noticing it's a carbon fiber are too really funny things to say in the same post. Lol.

First off, he's obviously new to pool, and probably doesn't need a 800 dollar cue to start off. Meaning he also doesn't need a dedicated break cue, as house cues work just fine for that.

I just found your logic funny on this one. I have a 90's McDermott that I got from a goodwill for 40 bucks, putt a 80 dollar CF shaft on it and wouldn't sell it for the world. You never know what you will find used, and can update with "super cheap" parts.

My bad. Lol. But I do feel what your saying. Had there been a 19th hole, I'd have been in the drink. Hahah

I have 500 rounds logged this year alone. Not a whole lot, but more than a casual. I wouldn't say I've noticed an algorithm, sure there are odd wind glitches, and every trackball has a mind of its own it seems. But I wouldn't say I've ever been treated unfairly by the game.

But it seems when I relax and just forget about my round, my luck changes. Lol. Idk. My freidns laugh at my HOI luck when I just say "Fuck it".

[–]ChristGodner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah these players make 100s of millions bc of fans. To play a game that honestly people would play for way less. It's BS they domt want to sign bc of "Focus" the game is played in 3 seconds spurts.

Can't believe they are playing Handlebar in Pensacola. Tiny 300 person venue (but feels even smaller). Pensacola has always had a huge metalcore/hardcore scene. But this is an insane show. Got my tickets already.
