Turning Point

A friend gave me a block of Kamui 0.98, as I was curious just how similar the 9half was. 9half is just a touch more feedback when applying, but a similar ‘painting’ feel. Less noticeable in terms of transfer to cueball also. Though, who doesn’t give the cueball a little clean between racks anyway... 0.98 is nice chalk. A block of this would last someone a lifetime I imagine.

Going towards CF break shaft/cue, my options

I have shot hundreds of thousands of shots without my tips flying off.

After I started having custom cues made, I always had an extra shaft. I never had to pull it out because a tip flew off my main shaft.

You aren't playing pool now.

You are playing a bastardized version of pool.

You are playing a game with ever-changing rules in order to keep players buying more "toys".

Do you think the old-schools players didn't "live and play pool".

They made money playing pool.

They didn't bring home APA patches and $10 trophies.
A lot of old school players making money were gamblers who were exceptional players looking to play people they believed they could beat, I know it still happens today, but there is more money in tournaments and more of them around the world today IMHO

How Important Is it to Own/Use a Break Cue

if you cant run out your primary objective is to hook him and get ball in hand. or just leave shots they cannot make.
that is if you want to win. if you want to dream of running out then do so.
So a player that can't run out is supposed to hook their opponent, get ball in hand & not be able to run out? A bad player is a bad player. If one does not possess the ability to run out, they probably don't have the skill or knowledge to play a useful safety either.

I will however concede that a simple safety is easier than a run out.

Sometimes a game is just a back and forth battle of attrition for some players.

International Open 2025

Looks like almost nobody in the viewing stands in Florida - plenty of seats but no spectators. IDK but to me, this whole tournament looks like a bomb.
Would have been there all day yesterday and today, like I was last year, but wasn't going to watch what amounted to a practice round. Did this Bigfoot have a high entry? Tomorrow's crowd will be slim pickings too with NFL going on.

Tip life

It's possible but I was in my super anal retentive tip maintenance phase and it glazed constantly on me. They may have improved but I still see glazed tips in the black ones all the time. They can be dressed up but it's far too much messing around with tips for my taste. Other brands don't glaze as much or require constant fiddling.
Tips that glaze over are good candidates for Tip Pik maintenance.
