14.01.2022 "Mr. Jesse Cardiff, who became a legend by beating one, but who has found out after his funeral that being the best of anything carries with it a special obliga...tion to keep proving it. Mr. Fats Brown, on the other hand having relinquished the champion's mantle, has gone fishing. These are the ground rules, in the Twilight Zone." See more

11.01.2022 Anyone who looks at the prices of my Original 8ball Table products and thinks no thanks to high please understand this. Since day one I have consistently be mak...ing moves to cut China out of my process.. At the moment all of our products except the flat pack stools ( working on it ) are 100% made right here in South East Queensland. I am not just unpacking boxes and passing the product on, I am hands on from start to finish. Yes this definitely a more expensive option for me but the way I look at it is I get to work on improving the quality of the product every step of the way. A product like this would usually come from China at a nice cheap price but will look like it is ready for the bin within no time. I want to offer a product that you will have around long into the future, offering value for money in that way. Our website will be launched on the 30th January and I look forward to offering a wide range of quality products. Thank you to everyone who has supported me so far is much appreciated. See more

03.01.2022 Encyclopedia of Pocket-Billiards - Johnny Holiday. Mental Picture Pocket-billiards is a mental game, as well as physical. The need to develop fundamentals requ...ires the student to master the mental aspect of the game. Visualizing is also an important part of the game, it erases guess work and stimulates positive thinking. In playing any shot you must concentrate totally to visualize the outcome of a play. When a player concentrates totally, he functions under tension and competition with much more ease. He becomes relaxed, but most important he makes accurate decisions. One of the most intriguing questions asked in pocket-billiards is, what secrets do professionals have to accomplish their hi-runs. The answer is, what are your faults? What is impeding your hi-run potential? Can it be your stance, sighting, stroke or mental attitude? I would like to point to something all professionals do when faced with a position-play. First, notice their facial expression as they size up the shot. They appear prepared to execute the play, but only visually. What takes place is the mental process that is not discernible. What they're doing is visualizing the track of the cue ball in their mind. They see themselves executing the shot, and they see the cue ball locate itself at a predetermined location. To master this technique one must first learn the fundamentals. The learning of this will not happen overnight, it requires months of study and practice, no quick method exists. Remember no matter the shot, the mental process always goes on. Therefore I repeat, what are your faults? It is best to know them and to work on eliminating them. In conclusion let me say that your game will improve, your knowledge will increase, and your hi-run output will double. When this occurs, there will be sheer joy in playing the game, for it then becomes a delight to you. - Johnny Holiday, Encyclopedia of Pocket-Billiards: Mental Picture
