    "MONK" Warren Costanzo...1979 World Champion

    You might be right. But that was a time when the goal was hit them as hard as you can and squat whitey in the middle. David probably averaged two balls on his 9 ball break. His breaks hurt your ears.

    What a beautiful and classy cue. :love:

    I could never understand the hype over a cue that is known to develop a roll / lift in the butt. I had a few (mine stayed straight) and I thought they played great. But worth what they're going for now...probably not to me.

    60 inch cue

    I'm 6'3" and have always played with a 58" cue. I never felt 58" was uncomfortable or short. A few years ago a buddy let me try his longer cue (I don't recall how long). Personally, I believe it helped my shot making (pretty sure). Anyway, I prefer longer cues now. For some reason, I just...

    Can't lean cues like that; they'll warp. Please correct and let us know when complete.

    Sold Hsunami 2.0 - Radial- Mint- $549

    Out of curiosity, why do you like the gen 1 better? I've heard nothing but positive comments in the gen 2.

    Which is BEST cuecase? Whitten? Laara? Phi eastwood? Rusty Melton? Jill Hawk? Or?

    For a 1x2 tube case, you won't find any better than an Engles. Not cheap, but they are all hand-made in the US by one guy that's been making them a long time. They also probably offer the best protection from crushing.

    Salotto… what a joke

    Statistics can be confusing. I'm sure Mike could tell you the probability of a 582 beating a 657 14 to 7. Their software could have an alarm that is triggered by a probability setting. Acedemic / scientific studies that are looking for statistical difference between two groups typically...

    Fair Advertising ?

    I'd say it looks great. Not exactly like the advertised image, but they seldom are. Close enough is my opinion.

    Stolen Searing

    Unfortunately, someone probably googled the sender's name and quickly learned the package could have an expensive cue in it. Once they got it home and researched it, they learned how unique, valuable and recognizable it is. My guess is they are looking for an oversees buyer. Definitely get...

    Can you straighten a warped shaft?.....Manwon can!

    I tried diligently. I must be doing something wrong because I was unsuccessful. If someone was to make themselves an expert on this, I'd bet they could have a nice little side gig straightening shafts. I have some shafts locked and loaded waiting to ship to someone to try. :)

    Stolen Searing

    Man, horrible, horrible news. Sorry this happened to you. It's a pretty distinctive cue so it will show up sooner or later. I will certainly keep an eye out.

    If a gun was put to your head to choose one player to pocket a difficult shot for you, who would you choose?

    It's close between: Filler Shaw Earl Worst (from the stories I've read) Trump Dennis Orcollo Also, I have an Earl story. One time I was watching a young Earl (21-22) practice before a match. For some unknown reason, he started shooting out of a corner jaw to a ball in the middle of the...
