How close are the points?

Why are tip picks tip destroyers? I use one all the time...I never noticed any negative consequences.

I once lost 200 at $5 a game. I can't recall how long it took but I'm going to say three or four hours. I wasn't playing bad; I just caught someone in dead stroke on an old GC with buckets. It seems like every few games, I got up to a kick shot. We (me) were paying after every 4 games. That...

That looks like what my table turns into every time I let the cue ball loose.

Man, he looks like he's a 100.

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.

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.

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

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.

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...

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

I'll take the two 5/16x18. Please send me payment info.
