Love for Billiards

I find it interesting that the game of billiards in its earliest form originated back in the 15th century when individuals played outside on the ground. I think it would be fun to go back in time and give it a try!  It's amazing how far the game and equipment has come since then. Everyone can play...I love that!!  I am a very competitive person, but billiards is also a great way to hang out with friends, meet new people, and just have fun! My best friend and I were out one night and wanted to play pool. We ended up teaming up with a fun group of people who we later found out were members of Hells Angels. Good times, great people, and a satifying win!!  Anyone else have a great billiards story?

One Pocket Billiards

One Pocket Billiards is very similar to Pocket Billiards with the same rules. The main difference for One Pocket is each player chooses a designated bottom corner pocket in which to score points. A point is scored when a player puts any ball into their designated pocket. The first player to 8 points wins.
The balls can be placed in a triangle rack at random and the player that makes the break is the first to choose their pocket of choice. Each legal shot earns a point as well as another shot. A point is lost for any illegal or foul shot. Be careful, three foul shots in a row means losing the game.

Great Billiard Training Tool

How do professionals put that perfect spin on a billiard ball to place each ball in the exact intended position??  Practice, practice, practice!!  One tool available to help players perfect putting proper “English” on a cue ball is a Sterling Professional Spotted Cue Ball. This professional cue ball has eight red dots on its surface which makes it easier to see what kind of spin is put on the ball. The patterns of the red dots help to see the effect of english, or any inconsistencies in your shot. The ball is regulation 2-1/4” in diameter and is regulation weight so when I comes time to play, you will be ready.
Practice away!
