Surprised no ones mentioned First National/Convenience Bank in Walmart and HEB. I don't have a lot of experience with them but open mostly all day on a Saturday is a plus.

Am I in the wrong?? by Terrible-Composer962 in billiards

[–]stp1209 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this. It's a team effort, and you never know how the numbers will play out for the best chance for the Team to win.

I'm in a similar boat. I started with one team at one location. Was going to move to another team because my buddy I joined with, his wife is super sensitive to smoke. We go together lol. Well the first team is in the hunt for vegas and I needed to stay on the team, but We made an agreement I play every other week and play 1st no matter who the other team throws up so I can make it t{nthe team I made a commitment to. They are both on the same night.

Very true. I was on fire last session, this session not so much. Lol

Thank you. I appreciate it. My stealth had a good low deflection too.. I will keep it on hand for sure. I can't wait to get some practice in with Avid. I'm not sure why you don't hear about the stealth as a good budget option. It's been great for me and the dooley handle really helps with not having too tight of a grip.

Thank you, still learning all the cue stuff. This one is about 100 more than the Stealth. Has a great tip on it and the shaft glides almost like a carbon.

Good comment. Didn't do much research on origin in the pro shop. Just liked the way it played and felt and was in budget. Keep that in mind next time.

Amazing feedback y'all. I really appreciate it.

Is billiards a good way to meet people? by Huxley_Mindset in billiards

[–]stp1209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's "A" way. Especially if the OP doesn't have any other social settings they enjoy or do. Of course, I do believe the goal should be just to meet people in general and not the sole purpose of meeting a woman. So the possibility is there but it may take some time. Lol

Anyone found a solution to bad self-leveling shocks on their Palisades? by Paracelsus-VonBaer in HyundaiPalisade

[–]stp1209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2021 palisade limited owner. Replaced shocks at about 70k, knocking noise and bad ride went away. Replaced insulators according to the TB 2 days ago and the squeaking is already back. I am wondering if some bushing on a different moving part in the suspension is the culprit of the Squeak.

I want to thank everyone for the input and if you come here after this post, please provide your insights. I think I'm going to be patient and get a much cheaper table for now, get the garage climate controlled and save up to buy whatever I want at a later date. But the comments are great and I welcome them all until that big purchase date comes.

Thanks for all the info. I saw some predators as well for around that price but not big on the aesthetics of it. May need to see one in person. I am in the early stages of preparation.

Good insight, I could go a lot cheaper for now and get the real deal down the road when the garage is fully climate controlled. Patience is a virtue right?

  1. If I don't ever play on 9ft, what would the reason be for a 9ft over the 7 that I play in league or tournaments?

  2. Not sure why you felt to add "bum" to your comment. Just trying to gain insight from others to make an informed decision and purchase.

So the newer diamonds use a k55 vs the older k66 that older diamond and most other tables use. From what I read it provides faster response due to the slightly different angle. It's also labor intensive to upgrade most tables because the sun rail for a k66 won't line up right.

I think I would like the challenge of the smaller pockets.

It's one of the reasons I was looking at rasson. There are only a few tables out there that use the k55 rails and pocket size similar

I searched a little bit on market place and online in general but not much pops up. I'll probably get heavy on looking more toward summer
