    Advice On This Shot

    Nice! I will not be in the NE until the next Turning Stone, so we can hook up then, perhaps at the tournament if you are going, but I can stop in Atlanta with in a few months. I will be in touch through PM here when I know exactly when I will next be in Atlanta. Thanks for the action.

    Advice On This Shot

    Ok, you are a keyboard nit, and that's just fine. Everyone needs to do their own thing, but we have nothing in common. If you change your mind and want to prove me wrong while making some money, I will give you that opportunity, if not have a nice day and good luck.

    Advice On This Shot

    I know because I shoot pool. Perhaps you should put away your note book and pick up a cue? Have you tried this shot as I described? I expected many to think what I say is impossible, no big deal, so let's get together and have some fun, remember to bring some cash, you will have to post. I...

    Advice On This Shot

    I am not a theorist, just a player. You need to talk to DR Dave for that kind of stuff. However I will extend my challenge shot proposition to you if you enjoy some action. I move around a bit and may be in a town near you soon.

    Advice On This Shot

    Ok, let me upset the apple cart here. I shoot that shot at 80 percent, not only into the side, but corner pockets as well. I know you don't believe me (everyone in this thread) so let's make it a challenge shot. I'll go with anyone who has some gamble for how ever much they want on every...

    Becue Leonardo Balance System

    I have been with Becue since the kick-starter days, and have been playing their cues ever since. The bent shafts that I am aware of were in the early days, I think all of them were white in color? I can remember Allessandro telling me that they had a problem with a company they contracted to...

    Sold Beautiful McDermott with extension - New Condition

    I spend considerably more than this when I buy a shaft. Great value and you can style while you play.

    Sold Beautiful McDermott with extension - New Condition

    I previously listed this cue here with other items. All other items have been sold, I'm thinking this cue got lost in the shuffle. This is a gorgeous merry widow with a highly figured cocobolo wrap, stained maple forearm and sleeve with railroad rings. I bought this cue new about four years...

    McDermott Merry Widow, G-Core, Becue Prime & Engage shafts

    Selling this cue and shafts because I seldom, if ever get to use them anymore. I have too many nice cues. 1). I bought this McDermott cue new about 5 years ago. Has a 3/8x10 joint. I bought it because it looked good, every time I took it out for a stroll at least one person said, 'nice cue'...

    Moving to a heavy playing cue

    It's one hundred percent personal preference. No right or wrong, just what feels the best to you, and most importantly, what cue are you getting the best results from? I have always played a heave cue, 20.5 oz and that is what works for me. I just like heavy things, you should see my latest...

    Valley ball set

    I completely agree with the Aramith Premium set for $200 at Seyberts. They sell the Premier's for about 30 dollars less. If you need a magnetic cue ball they have them for about 25 bucks.

    Did the cue market fall apart?

    From a players perspective who has never bought a collectors cue: Shaft technology has changed, and may continue to change going forward. They are expensive, both wood LD and Carbon Fiber, so a players investment in his shafts can be considerable if they like to try new shafts. Perhaps there...

    Advice for beginner cues?

    Ok, I understand, perhaps it can be your next and last cue?

    Advice for beginner cues?

    Buy an all carbon fiber Becue and never have to buy another cue for the rest of your life. Cost about 1K, a few hundred more than you are looking to spend, but in the long run you will save a lot of money. Now you can focus on finding the tip you prefer and then forget about cues and practice...
