Yes it did. I had a pretty good cue before, now I have what I consider to be one of the very best around (Exceed with Ignite) and if I had to put a number on it my Fargo might have gone up 10 or 20 points after getting used to it.

Has anyone seen another cue with this style or level of hand inlay work? Exactly like this style? No. But other cues with a similar amount of work in them, yes many. Does this resemble the work of anyone else, or is it fairly unique? To be honest, the type of work done in this cue reminds me...

Place the cueball 6-8" away perfectly straight in and play a stop shot around speed 2 (lag speed) to 2.5.

Fyi: The problem is with your ferrule coming loose(y)

For me, it has to be one of Ronnie's many amazing moments. Probably the most impressive one (again, for me) was when he won the 2012 WC, took an entire year of from competitive Snooker, came back and won it again the following year.

That's just plain wrong. Butt of the cue mate, not chalk's width.

6 to 8

Assuming we're talking "in their prime" then Mark Williams would be a great choice, quite possibly the greatest single ball potter in the game of snooker. In pool it's hard to argue anyone over Filler.

There's a handful of matches, all featuring the same player that I could pick.

Around 15 years ago Mark was on here asking about some new shafts, he had never tried the Predator stuff, this was when he was living in Salt Lake. I sent him a couple shafts to try out but he didn't really like any of them and sent them back. Who knows what might have been if he had really...

Interesting. For me it would likely be the other way around. When I'm playing in a tournament I don't really care all that much (it's not that I don't care, otherwise I wouldn't play). But in league I give 100% every single time cause I don't want to let me team down.

Longoni Nera is available with their standard pin.

If you legally make any ball with number 2 or higher except on the break you win that rack, is what it would normally mean. Obviously, this is a giant spot only meant for a considerable difference in skill level. Since it's soooo many balls the caveat might be made that you have to always call...

IMO, probably Ralph plays the best patterns in 8-ball, but difficult to be 100%.

Not a world beater by any measure, but for me this layout comes down to just 1 thing and that is getting on the 4 correctly. Be it in the side or in the corner. The rest is just connect the dots. Obviously when I was starting out connecting the dots was tough. It just takes time and practice.
