I Only need the bumper.

Okay…..got my answer……spoke with some esteemed names and I’m hanging onto my Prewitt cue.

I might just put this cue in the closest after the comments I received about it. I was told its value will
only increase over time and unless I needed the money, which I really don’t, then I should hang into it.

So 25 years from now my grandson, who is only 5 yrs old, could have a valuable pool cue. There are
no guarantees in life but I think expensive custom cues will remain in vogue just like watches & guns.

Don't use donuts. The thickness of the donut throws off the balls wildly as very slow speeds and makes the game unplayable.

The donuts are not nearly as bad as the spot sticker you see on most pool tables.

Also, until the OP has 2mm precision on his ball placement, any deflection due to a donut is a very minor part of his inaccuracy. "Wildly" ??? No.

And if it's really a concern, I think the clear donuts may be thinner than the white ones. They are also harder to see.

skyline is owned and managed by pool players and the people that you will find there are pool players

pool players cannot afford the amsterdam or society prices- food, drinks, or table time

it’s not remotely close

and it’s not in an expensive upscale part of town, it’s a neighborhood and they treat people that way

the equipment is every bit as good as amsterdam without the constant vacuum cleaner noise, they do that after hours
