I took this out of page 97 in the APA team manual:

PUSH SHOTS: A push shot involves a situation where the cue ball is frozen to
the object ball. The problem faced by the shooter is to keep from pushing or
keeping the tip of the cue on the cue ball. It looks bad and is generally thought of
as illegal. Push shots are controversial. Push shots will not be called in this
amateur League. Even the professional players cannot agree about what is and
isn’t a push shot. In general, you can lessen your chances of being accused of
shooting a push shot if you elevate the butt of your cue about 30 degrees. This
automatically cuts down the length of the follow through which is the principal
cause of a push shot. Players who repeatedly guide the cue ball with force
through object balls that are frozen or nearly frozen to the cue ball, using a level
cue and long follow through, may be subject to a sportsmanship penalty.]]> Copying scoresheets Phyl38 http://amateurpool.net/forum/topic.asp?whichpage=-1&TOPIC_ID=188&REPLY_ID=109 General Pool Discussion Thu, 04 Mar 2010 10:06:41 -0500 http://amateurpool.net/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=188 Quote:

Hey Chris, thanks for the input. I went with the 4x6...it seems ok but you were on the money about the latch...it feels a bit flimsy...but time will tell. Also it does have a lining in it so hopefully no scratching of my shaft!!!!!

Don't make excuses about playing on 9ft tables. Come down and practice and get used to them.

Good luck and good shooting!

Kris and I are very sorry to see Comet close. There is no other room that raised the bar for players and tournaments in this area. Best of luck to Bill and Marcia we are going to miss you and Comet very, very much.

Just to let people know Shooters can have up to 9 teams playing both 8&9 on Mondays. If any teams are interested please give me a call at Shooters 973-248-0800 or talk with Al.

I have no problems with teams using a regular sized cue ball and in fact I'm not sure if there are teams that are opposed to it. Is there a need to 'enforce' this request that it needs to be written in the by-laws?
I will be sure to bring it up for discussion during the next Division Rep meeting as to the verbiage to use if it needs to be addressed in the by-laws.

BUY A TABLE FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS HOW TO CARE FOR THEM!!! This way you can feel confident in the table; knowing it has been kept damage-free from heat, weight, sitting w/o being properly leveled, etc... My table has been kept perfectly for all the years I've owned it…lively cushions, good ball return mechanism

Table Info: It’s an 8 ft, 3 piece slate table with ball return…Manufactured by the Fischer Co. between 1968 and 1976. It was appraised last year as an antique/collectible at $1500.

A steal at $550!!! (+ moving costs...I know a great local company so it shouldn't be bad)

write or call (973) 216-4216
