I was able to replicate this when I added only the predator cue ball to my cart. The dynasphere cue ball alone was still ~$30 to ship… something definitely doesn’t add up. Maybe they are drop shipping from Asia or something?

I put in the same order you did and the prices were high. Changed the cue ball to the aramith red circle and the shipping went down to less than $11.

After much thinking, it would have to be the Players jump break cue I got about 12 years ago. Hit the rack just fine and jumped okay, but the damned weight bolt would never stay screwed in tightly. It reached a point that I carried an Allen wrench in my case because damn near every time i played, you felt it rattle loose. A year and a half later, I finally gave in and bought a McDermott Stinger at Super Billiards Expo.

I had the same issue with mine. I ended up using plumbers tape on the threads of the bolt.

Trying to keep it relative but letting fly too...had a Jeff Olney cue which had almost no tone to the hit, cue looked great and the shafts were top grade, but I think it had a cheap handle.

Have had a few other customs by good makers with a super pingy, metallic sound. I like some ping but those were just too much for my ears.

I woulda tried stuffing the end with paper but you were already all the way in?

Yes. Even used a super duty allen wrench and it still worked its way free.

Hey, it's February 2026, but I still would like to add my high run of 2025 - because it was my highest run since I play straight pool.

I had a 55 playing a race to 125 to a very goof Player on a 9 Foot Brunswick in July 2026.

It wasn’t a single event. I was a teacher for 22 years and it was a slow year over year erosion of an environment that allowed me to do my job and maintain a productive structure. It’s not a good time in our culture to work with youth in any capacity.

It's like death by a thousand cuts. We all have stories. Mine is too long nor appropriate to tell here but it has been over 40 years and it changed me permanently. When the SHTF you find who your friends are and are not and it can be surprising. My wife and I let no one in our life anymore.

The Boy's Club had 'em in all colors. I would always be disappointed if they were in use.

First cue I owned. Won in a tournament 1974 Valdosta Ga. Never use it, so it never disappoints. Lol

This is the problem. We have given up on our youth. Sad to say

I didn’t give up on the youth as much as I gave up on all the structural nonsense surrounding the youth that fosters antisocial behavior. The problem with youth is all the fine print that will take a good program and completely ruin it.
