I need a website that explains the physics behind shuffleboard. Does anybody know of any, or can they find any?

I'd look for articles about friction and collision dynamics. You have pucks sliding with friction, colliding with other pucks and bouncing apart with velocities and directions dependent on elasticity and initial conditions of the collision. Curling is often cited as mechanically similar to shuffleboard. Try physics discussion groups similar to ref. 1. And, tooting my own horn a bit, if you're interested in the idea of programming, or writing the equations for, 2-D collision dynamics, see ref. 2.
