pool has changed

no bob. but i said that is what i would like to see. but they did it in the past. and if they got prices down and players wanting them it could come around and at least be competitive with diamonds.

they used to put in tables in new rooms for little down and take payments for some. and of course you got mosconi with every new room to do an exhibition. they also came and helped set up the business and taught or gave advice on running it. diamonds as far as i know put in tables and leave.

and the days of brunswick with lots of advertising to the masses got many new players and rec. players in every pool room. and now its mostly league players or regulars if you have a cheap monthly rate.

few monopolies last forever. and rightly so. brunswick had one and lost it for lack of caring.

If you know who brings the big crash, then pool has a chance to get it's feet back in. Like the 20s again.

How do LOW-COST CARBON FIBER SHAFTS Perform Compared to the Best?

I question it because predator obviously did something to keep the 12.9 very low LD. I wonder if Rhino did.

That's why looking at same sizes between brands is a more useful comparison.

While I really enjoy any analysis/evaluation on deflection, and I respect Dr. Dave, not having a like-to-like test and, apparently, not being able to compare tests across videos, really does limit the practical uses of these comparison videos.

There is no criticism meant in that comment, any more than there is criticism meant against any shaft in this comparison video. Just observation.

Seeing other companies' cheapo shafts perform similarly to a $500+ Revo is quite interesting, of course.

Help with ferrule material

No, you are absolutely wrong….4 cue makers told me they couldn’t build a KW shaft that heavy without coring the
shaft that I was opposed to doing. One is known for doing great cue restorations. 3 others said they could try but no
promise they’d get the shaft to weigh 4 ozs. It didn’t have to since 3.8 ozs. To 4.2 ozs. was my desired weight range.

Nonetheless, I really preferred 4 ozs. since almost all my orig. shafts weigh that much. The cue makers I eventually
located said making a shaft the way I wanted was not a problem for them. 3 of the 4 shafts in the photo weigh 4 ozs.
and 1 is 3.82 ozs. The shafts have different diameters & largest is 12.85mm which also happens to be the lightest shaft.
