I went on a bit of a web-browsing binge today (which sucks because it's way too sunny outside today) and found about 10 or so sites that are showing some detail on the billiardsforum.info Billiard site.
Most of them are just the result of some sites that run bots/aggregation, but some, like killer startups in the last post, are manual. We love the love, so keep it comin.
Our parent site, billiards forum (.info), got a great review yesterday on a site called KillerStartups.com.
Though their traffic numbers are correct for the united states only, we get global monthly traffic of about 3x that - we actually see ~30,000 visitors per month at billiardsforum.info globally) their review was a positive one.
Have some tips to share? Know some good drills? How about getting in on some of the action with us…
I started this site because one of the best ways I've found to learn something is to try to teach it to others. After all, I'm learning what works and what doesn't as I go through the process. If someone else can wade through it all just a tiny bit faster, then I've helped. Teaching or at least explaining something also ensures that you understand it yourself (unless you're a hack, of course!), so writing has always been a good test of my own knowledge.
The Pitch If you have moderate grammar and spelling skills, an interest in sharing what you know and learn about pool, and the desire to perhaps earn some spending money, you might be a good fit. Some technical knowledge is a plus but not a requirement.
Currently, we don't have any publishing requirements, no weekly quotas or deadlines, none of that sort of thing. However, we are looking for people who can form more of a "staff" than submit an idea for one tip or a drill. If you've only got one or two drills in mind, thats great too. If you've got a head full of ideas, why, we want to talk to you.
What to Do It's simple. Write up a few sample pool playing tips, and send them here. If you could, put something like "Join the Staff" or something in the subject. Explain to me in as many words as you need why you feel you would make a worthy addition to the staff. Ask any questions you have up front, too, because you'll get the honest dope back. If you're not sure if you want to join, send an email and just ask the questions.
Happy holidays again from billiards forum. I just wanted to type a post to let everyone know about a new feature on our site.
We've cataloged over 2000 billiard stores, shops, and retailers throughout the USA. Each listing includes a map, phone number, and physical address. There is also a place where you can leave comments about the billiard supply shops.
Also, we've launched a new billiard video site called Billiards Television. It showcases billiard videos (and snooker videos) from youTube, but in a neatly categorized form so that you don't have to weed through the crap.
Welcome to the billiards forum pool players directory. We're working hard to expand the pool players directory which will showcase both current and past greats of the game of billiards. There will be sections showcasing Hall of Fame inductees as well as sections showcasing the current champions of the sport.
The very first entry into the pool players directory was Jennifer Baretta. As you all know the billiards forum loves Jennifer Baretta. Since 2006 we've done numerous articles on Jennifer which have been showcased on various other websites such as coedmagazine.com. The next player in the pool players database with Steve Mizerak. The untimely passing of Mr. Mizerak was largely disappointing to the billiard world. We were ready to include the next pool player in the database after Jennifer and it occurred to us that no other player was more fitting for inclusion into our database then Steve.
Of course we couldn't forget today's great Mr. Efren Reyes. What then a few articles on Efren and they been well received by the readers. Unsure of how to proceed next we try to think of which player was deserving of the next entry into the database. Needless to say he came up with multiple ideas and were left with the decision of ranking them in order for inclusion. That's when Gary, the billiards forum owner and executive editor decided that we would attempt to build, all at one time, a comprehensive pool players database that our users can update as time progresses. That way all deserving players would have their on the website, and the users would have a way to add or update information as they saw fit.
Thank you everyone for reading this article and we hope that you'll stop back soon to visit our website and you are newly updated pool players database.
You've probably noticed that we've cleaned up the blog quite a bit since your last visit. I wanted to take this opportunity to advise readers of a new feature we've added to the Billiards Forum site.
Our Pool Rules section now has almost 40 rule sets, that are now categorized into six main categories.
Please feel free to browse through and tell us what you think. More rules will be posted shortly. Our editors are preparing the articles for about 60 more billiard games.
We've recently launched version 2.0 beta of the Billiards Forums. The pool table forum has seen a ton of action, and membership has increased 400% over the past 12 months. There are a number of regulars, so be sure to register for free and post all of your cue sports question. You can also visit the billiards forum contents as well.
Hello everyone, thanks for your patience. We're renovating both the billiards forum and the blog here. Thanks for your continued support, and we hope to see you all soon with our new and cleaned up look!
Yeah. So check this out. Its a VW bus converted in to a billiard table. Thats as unlikely a combination as I'd ever expect! It was spotted at a classic and unique car show in the USA. Feel free to check out the article and more images over at the billiards forum.
I know that this is just like the craziest thing, but hey, you have to admit, it is pretty freaking cool. If someone offered to sell me that for the right price I just might have to accept their offer!
The billiards forum has recently partnered with 9 Ball Billiards to share a vast wealth of 9 Ball pool and billiard news. Included in the newly released version of 9 ball billiards are:
9 ball billiards news (9 Ball Pool Tour news from inside pool magazine and other sources)
Of course there is a lot more on the 9 Ball pool site, but these are the main sections of the site. Also, check back shortly, as they'll have 9 Ball RSS feeds plugged in from the billiard rules forum
Yes, I know, it has been a considerable time since my last post but I've been busy building the new Billiards Forum release, which should be done shortly.
I'm posting now in hopes of finding someone with some knowledge about Victor Billiard Tables. Victor pool tables are no longer made, but there is a growing number of billiard enthusiasts who are working on restoration projects.
If anyone has one of these old Victor billiard tables, victor pool table parts, pictures of victor pool tables, or anything else of interest relating to this brand of table, please, leave us a comment and share.
Birdlington and district Billiards and Snooker League held their presentation evening last Tuesday night at Quay Leisure with hundreds of trophies up for grabs.
The league would like to thank Quay Leisure for the excellent buffet and all the staff for the excellent service. Trophies were presented by president Trevor Pearson.
The league hold their AGM next week and then look forward to next season following what has been another superb season.
Mental preparation is essential and may be as important as any physical skill in the game of billiards, just as it is in any other sport.
Focus, concentration, precision, consistency, and choice of shot are all very important skills in the game of billiards and they all rely on the mental to a large degree.
Billiards Forum has prepared an introduction to preparing mentally for billiards ; an article that should give you an idea of what to think about and how to prepare for games, practice, and competition. Feel free to leave feedback.
