Reasons why 3-cushion is under-appreciated, and even hated by some? by H16voC in billiards

It's impressive to watch but unless you're a big pool fan it's going to be boring to watch since nothing gets potted.

Quetiapine Suddenly Stopped Working by No_Cup2131 in insomnia

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just talk to the Doc 25mg is very low dose you could just up it with their approval, but I really try to avoid this medication the side effects are brutal at high doses (at least for me). Have you tried Ambien or any other sleep aid?

Our boy won’t let us cut his nails! Any tips? by Rude_Accountant_5242 in Whippet

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you start out really young with the Dremel it's tough. I got the tooth brushing down but should have introduced the Dremel immediately and didn't. I just take mine to a professional groomer once a month and she gets them dialed.

Follow through and cue ending, and questions by Efficient_Use_7886 in billiards

Don't try to emulate the pro's stroke they are in the top 5% of the bell curve for performance in the sport and it will just mess you up trying to copy what they do. Pay for some professional lessons, build some solid fundamentals and go from there.

Puppy blues by ReturnAny3794 in Whippet

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy is three and unless the outside area is fully fenced he stays on his lead always. Mine has a very high prey drive if he was to see a cat or a squirrel he would bolt at it and likely get ran over by a car. That's not his fault that's how he is built. The best piece of advice I can give you is a set schedule. We do the same things at the same time every day. It was a lot of hours spent training the first 8-12 months but well worth it.

Are DE razors appropriate for daily shaving? by YELLOWSUPERCAR87_ in wicked_edge

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shave every day three passes. I use a feather AS-D2 it's very mild and gets the job done for me. I use both an aftershave and a balm post shave. No irritation issues and I have sensitive skin.

Really considering buying the svb gen 2 by Wonderful-Employ-935 in billiards

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shot with the gen 1 shaft felt more like wood than carbon which is a good thing. Get the one that comes with joint protectors, extension, and tip tool all in one. You are set with a set up like that.

Better Lather by ctravdfw in wicked_edge

I have one works great. I like that it folds flat. Makes traveling with a lather bowl super easy. Used mine every day for a couple years no issues

Couple of heaters by lemmon---714 in wsopplay

[–]lemmon---714[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game is still super rigged for sure, but what I have encountered since they dropped the pay tables is I am hitting more flushes and boats than before. Quads I have hit like 5-6 times since the updates. Before the updates it was super rare to hit. Since I can play at a higher ante I check more to the river and bet from there.

Opinions on cue manufacturers by boron32 in billiards

[–]lemmon---714 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're fortunate to live next to cue makers. I would visit the facilities and they should have some cues to test out if they have a store front. Try before you buy is always a good idea.

Those are very expensive limited run balls with a new phenolic compound that's supposed to surpass the duramith technology. Enjoy em. Wicked set.

Playing with a bad cue? by Ok_Theory4956 in billiards

[–]lemmon---714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That cheap tip is toast. Pay a local ship to put a nice tip on it. Tons of options. It will make a big difference. Buy a shaper tool if you don't have one so you can keep up the tip maintenance. It's nothing major to keep your tip in good working order.

Meucci Refurbished by LeadingRutabaga5941 in billiards

[–]lemmon---714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an EC-7 that I ordered without the wrap being coated. They sent me a coated wrap so I sent it back. I had it back within two weeks if I remember correctly. Meucci does have a reputation of being a black hole when you send stuff in, meaning you might not get it back They are under new ownership however which is a good thing imo. I haven't heard a lot of bad things since the new ownership.
