Could you not just use a couple pieces of cheap chalk, or even 4 pieces? two ether side with what ever gap you want to create, shoot the CB through.

With these really old matches, that had been posted lately, the fact the footage does exist in the first place. is amazing. And very watchable, i don't think the Commentary, is as important, when it comes these, old tapes.

Going by that list, its nice to see a lot more events in america this year! At lest they stuck to there promise they made, at the mosconi, about doing more in the states🙂

Just like any tip, you get really good ones, and some bad ones. I'm glad you got a good one. The first moori i brought two years ago was awesome, when that one worn down. I brought another, that was not so good. There are ones just as good you can buy for $20.and more consistent, So much choice...

Nice to see, most of these are original, Lot of history there, thanks for posting!

It may or may not work for you, i have one. Compared to maple. It just plays stiffer. My opinion, doesn't mean much, until you get one, you Won't know.

ralf souquet being a good example of that, but this is way after, My point being they already have the better fundamentals. Its not about experience will keep you down, they just got way of doing it, thats better right now!

The look of those rings, its higher end Philippine made cue. With a mezz shaft.

great post frosty, This is the way they chose to do it, why it couldn't just Be left alone, until everyone else catches up, it was only going to benefit the European players, and few others, who already had the proper fundamentals in place. Would be interesting to see them go back to a slower...

Your options are limitless, so many to chose from, juma, strong but soft hit, masons micarta has very unique hit, but is softer than linen micarta. All the others like malamine, ivorine have very hard crisp hit. Tomahawk is very light wight but super strong,very crisp hit. The original ones...

when ever these type of threads come up, I have said this for years, its the way its played. Take out the pocket size for a minute.... The risk taking in favour of safety shots. I think would still be the same, if the pockets were a bit bigger. Players today, rather have it easy, than go for the...

It helps if you mark it, only thing is if you don't know where the the taper rises, you could miss anything.on a short bridge its ok, on longer bridge length, that taper comes into play more. Another way is to hold the butt in the same place every time. Look at it the other way around, a badly...

I think your right, that shaft with the silver ring, fits the line of cue he as using from 1999 and still using those in 2002 when he beat bustamente in the final, of the worlds, the two black cues with the glitter points and diamonds in the butt, black grip. He used the other one to break with.

Looks like you might be right, it does say genuine, there are still quite a few that don't have that wrap choice. Plenty there.
