question for the group, does this tourney remain for you as the premier event in all of cue sports?

it has for me however I think the pending MR Worlds in Saudi may soon take this top spot in my mind

the snooker world championship still has higher payouts, with 500k for the winner. but i think 9-ball will no doubt raise its attraction and viewership. the IPT back in the day had snooker players and other cueists coming over.. money talks

My “Notorious” Jackpot

Shooter08
The one I kept out of the last three Jackpots sold by Dean and a pic of the two who went to the lucky buyers. One of them now has three that I know of. Mine is Maple into Maple full splice w two different tapered shafts. Plays amazing but does leave some aesthetics to be desired. Still waiting for someone to sell their Jackpot or put out a review. Nothing wrong with admitting you love it!! I do!

Wood Shaft v CF

T
shooter_Hans said:
Wood shafts are like baseball bats to me. Eventually it loses its structural integrity. Baseball players constantly changing their bats for this reason. Now their point of contact are different than ours but we make contact with a ball more often than they do on a bat.

The shafts flex and vibrate every time we make contact. I was told a long time ago to let a cue warm up if it’s cold outside. Put the cue together and let it warm up to the room’s temperature. Then again there were a lot of half truths and folklore then.

There is some truth to letting wood acclimate to a room but I'm not sure a few minutes or even an hour is really enough. When installing wood floors the box usually says to leave in the room to acclimate for atleast 24-48 hours if I remember right.

I think it would take a really good player to notice the difference. I think most would notice the difference in the speed of the table due to the humidity before the change in the shaft.
