I do not recommend trying to fix a warped shaft. You can have it put straight again but as sure as you are sitting there it will warp right back after a few hits. If it does not rise off the felt it should be fine to play with but if it really bothers you then go with the OB-1.

Can you send some pictures of the Shurtz and jacoby to mw3625@att.com? thanks Mike

I was doing this on a newly felted 9 ft Diamond. He used the new Brunswick felt which is like shooting on glass. The difficulty varies on the table.

I was practicing this the other night because a friend challenged me. The object is to sink the 8 in the corner pocket without letting the cue ball touch the rail. It looks easier than it is LOL. I think I hit the rail 5 times before I was able to do it right...

I gamble because it keeps me from developing bad habits when a game doesn't mean anything. I like to play races to 9 or more. Takes out the chances of a weaker player winning. I suppose the big thing is that if you beat your opponent they cant say "Well I wasn't really trying or playing you...

Yeah that is true. I guess the guy just gets under my skin.

Well I guess I'm human... Saturday night I snag my case and head up to the pool hall to meet up with a friend. I'm shooting with my buddy for about an hour when in comes this guy that we all know. I consider the guy a friend but you have to take his personality with a grain of salt. You all...

LOL well he was asking what the "value" was :rolleyes: I personally wouldn't buy it and I'm sure that on ebay it will only fetch 80.00-100.00 at best but then again everyone is looking for some kind of deal on the bay.;)

Check that, It was originally 219.00 and in a mint shape would be 259.00. Due to less than mint shape it would be closer to a 180.00 range. It is the EL1 model.

Brand new it is worth 249.00. I would have to say used with a chip you would be in the 160.00-180.00 range.

If your bridge hand always has a blue stain on the Palm If your pool cue costs more than your wifes wedding ring. You get in an argument with your wife and you offer a lag to decide it:D When someone says "combination" safes or asian food does not come to mind first. When you tell your...

Try this one. It looks really simple but this will help you control a draw...

I think these rules make the most sense. Why should I as a player be penalized for the mistake of my opponent? the reason why I say this is because lets say the 8 ball or one of my balls happens to be right next to the head spot? by spotting your ball in that spot you just gave a ball in hand...

BCA rules OBJECT BALLS JUMPED OFF THE TABLE If any object ball is jumped off the table, it is a foul and loss of turn, unless it is the 8-ball, which is a loss of game. Any jumped object balls are not re-spotted.

I still have that custom cue made by Bud Light :D
