The sound shockwave from a cue hit

A good unrelated hijack …. Why do Borla, American Thunder Flowmasters increase sound. Is a MUFFLER’s function to quiet the exhaust? Here we go. Delta 13 leather inserts on your next hot rods pipes.
 
This new silent cue technology will eff up the Break Speed App.
Oh well I don't think I was ever going to get to 27 MPH anyways.

The new Z06/7 uses some Hemholz principle to vary the resonance of the intake and coordinate flow with engine efficiency. It has a three valve system that's "fingered" according to engine load. My sticks are all around 50 dollars and don't have that.
 
Cues make a noise when striking the cue ball. Would an improvement be a cue that strikes the cue ball silently.

The idea being energy transfer from stick to cue creates unwanted feedback producing the thud or thwack noise. A current hypothesis among cue designers is swapping materials to eliminate the sound feedback to improve cue striking precision.
you're braindead.
 
Next up Chalk Screech. I’m thinking about soaking a chalk cube for a 1/2 hour in water. Technically it should quiet things down.

I don't see the point. So what if you take away the sound of the tip hitting the cue ball. You're still going to have a lot of noise when the cue ball hits the rack.

The only way to take away the sound is to absorb the energy created. Unless you want to play in outer space, in which case you wouldn't be able to hear anything. Take away those sounds, and the game is less attractive to me. It's like walking into a bowling alley and not hearing the pins getting smashed.

Games like pool and bowling need to be experienced with all of your senses. Sight, sound, and feel. And I would argue even smell... Walk into a bowling alley and you smell that Lane Oil.... it's part of the experience. I stop at the sense of taste. I don't need to taste the billiard balls. I don't lick my trophies either.👅

Ooh, ooh! A glasspack for our cues! That's the ticket!
