Apologies, is it a McDermott shaft or off brand & price ?

The cues of my youth were pure dee pitiful, but I loved them because they were mine and they were all I had. Since then, I have felt the same about each one I picked up -- wonderful -- just find the balance and play -- just like dancing with different girls at a dance. I suffer no delusions, so I do not ever expect my ability to exceed the quality of any of my cues: TS, Cog, B. Jones, Espiritu (2), Gulyassy, WHPro, Schon, Joss, Meucci, Shuriken, and Predator.

What's the diameter at the handle/sleeve?

When there's no wall, be the wall...
- solid and dashed red lines are equal length (measure with stick)
- visually "mark" the rail for aiming the kick/bank

The format is a joke.

Before the last rack, USA A won 14 racks and USA B won 7 racks.

But if USA B won the last rack, the game would have gone to a shoot-out, where anyone can win.

Can you imagine a NFL or NBA game where one team has a lot more points and still ends up losing?

So like tennis then?

I’m not a fan of the shootout but I think the multiple set format is a nice change of pace compared to a standard race to 5 or 7. I don’t think I’d want to see this become the standard but it’s nice as a one of.
