Automatic pool cue thoughts

[Soberlife]

Get a load of this, is this a joke or even legal?
I’m still trying to figure out if I bought one for fun if it would ever show up in my mailbox. Thoughts?

Automatic pool cue

Looks like it hits a ton.

I want to use it for a break cue bc I keep miscueing. Would you buy one and put it to use?

 

[billiards_watch]

I will buy one if there is a warranty.

Nothing will piss me off more than it breaking.

I really want one too but they are only $99 I’ll take the chance at it. Looks like fun

Not legal in the APA.

 

[garczar]

I have rules at my house, you must have one of those cues to play pool on my table, so there's that.

Can someone just buy one already and review it?

I need to know the build quality since there are moving parts involved. Don't need it to break, no pun intended, because I doubt there is an after-sales department to help if its broken.

Dang I had quite a few of those old Amerola Aluminum Cues. I had experimented with weights inside of them right where your grip hand holds the cue. 22-24 ounces felt like 16. Down side is the aluminum warps....

Don't know if I should head to the pool hall or the gun range with that.

Aluminum only warps if you apply more heat to it than possible with a Bic lighter, I'm guessing you bent it somehow.

What they need to do is a jump cue that works like this

Where did you find that price, on FB? Aliexpress has them for ~$155.

I've seen spring-loaded cues before, and even thought about making a basic one, because I think one might be useful for working with beginner players. It *literally* demonstrates a "mechanical stroke", and even, basically, follow-through. Probably best use would be to check a shooter's aim though, by replacing their individual stroke with the 'automatic' one.

Also, there's these.

What do you mean?
Why would an aluminum cue stick feel lighter than a wood cue stick even though they both weighed the same?
