Yeah, I think OP would have much better luck with a Frey cue of those specs. I think I had one of his that was rosewood and curly.

I'm not seeing any difference

I love Tiger tips but I'd like to see better descriptions of each tip. If you read the copy, the two newest tips seem the same. I've read on FB that the Nitro and Eagle Eye were independently developed. If so, compare/contrast so we know how to describe them to customers.

they are more likely marketing rebrand than actually being different. just to make consumers think that they have a better or different quality than the previous tiger tips they have. from looking at it, they renamed them and being promoted by certain pros.

That’s the way I do it and teach it, to maintain the cue/body/head relationships and to prevent stroke clearance issues. Since BHE is only a portion of the total pivot in SAWS, and for typical shots, the pivot is not very much.

No shade but that’s wild to me. I’ve always subscribed to the belief that once you’re down on the shot that you should never move any aspect of your stance or else you’ve already missed the shot. I can appreciate that the bridge hand is serving as an anchor in this case and you have lived experiences with execution and teaching here. It’s just worth sharing the reaction that this scares me. LOL

I don't think an object ball spinning in place poses any real problem, it doesn't prevent the shooter from his shot preparation.

We are pool players; someone in the group would bitch about the probability of a meteor hitting the building and messing up their shot. Of course, Garzcar might bitch that the probability of a meteor hitting other posters is too low!
