    Any straight taper carbon fiber shafts?

    Thanks for the reply...the Jacoby Black is a pro taper... I'm looking for a carbon fiber with a straight taper or conical taper also known as a European taper... there are carom carbon fiber cues that are conical, but they tend to be shorter than an american pool shaft

    Any straight taper carbon fiber shafts?

    really would like to try a carbon fiber shaft with a straight taper in the 12mm range? I see some modified straight tapers.... perhaps that's all there is... thanks!

    Mezz ignite reactions?

    mezz ignite reactions- It is very well made as expected. Zan medium wavy joint. The hit is excellent. The Revo which i tried a few times (smaller diameter) had a hit that felt kind of hollow, like tapping a concrete block with a drum stick. The ignite hit feels solid but not pingy, it's...

    Mezz ignite reactions?

    sounds good... curious to hear reactions Did the softer tip reduce the energy transfer? I have been using a wx900 for a couple years now. I prefer a boardy, stiffer hit and have developed more consistency as the original kamui black soft hardened up. I'll be able to give the ignite a hit by...

    Mezz ignite reactions?

    Fall shipments just arrived and it’s crickets out there. I ordered one and it has arrived but I haven’t returned from out of town to try it out. Anyone out there with any initial reactions? Thanks

    Counterintuitive and fascinating. Not asking for any special effort but do you have a breakdown of the numbers?

    Applying Neuroscience to Pool

    thanks for putting up this thread. The brain-computer we all have working when we are shooting is a black box, we don't really don't know what's going on in there, but routine is clearly a given when we are talking a target sport that requires still objects being moved toward a target...

    Cue from the late 60's ID help??

    sorry to resurrect the thread, but I was wondering if I could ask the forum if they would care to at least provide an opinion as to when this cue was likely made? I think the maker of the cue will remain a mystery, but it would be nice to kind of get a consensus view as to the approximate decade...

    no question about it. 8 ball on a barbox is far more difficult than 9 ball on a barbox. 15 rotation is another story.

    Cue from the late 60's ID help??

    I don't know anything about custom cues (i just learned some of the terminology in the last couple days) by a google search, Mr. Balabushka didn't make any Dufferin or brunswick conversions. The white butt cap (don't know what the material is) would have been added to a dufferin? thank you...
