    What’s the diameter of your Butt?? 😏

    Man i remember back in the mid 90's when i went to Steepleton's in Lexington Ky. They had a nice glass display with Meucci's. I wanted the 95-14 so bad but just didnt have the extra money. I always looked at that cue everytime i went in. Yep the Meucci original is the ST4 Hi Run. Big Butt and...

    Meucci butt only.

    A lot of the Meucci cues will be .820 instead of .840 which is probably what his CF shaft is. Just make him aware that the joint collars may not line up. I really respect that you are doing this. I have loved the game all my life and it started out as a coping mech and therapy for my severe...

    Classic match Q. What cue did Nick Varner use during this match?

    It is not rings, the quality of the vid is pretty bad makes it look like it. It is a white letter Nick Varner Joss Cue that Dan Janes made for Varner. He sold these out of his Room. If you notice the inlay on the butt he is using is the same as this one. The one he is using is fancier with...

    What killed the slip stroke?

    I was good friends with Cornbread Red for a few years before he passed away. He had one helluva slip stroke. He didnt use it all the time but he could use it on almost any shot. I tried learning it but i found it was difficult. It was something i had to think about and for me it was difficult to...

    For those considering between a 12.4, 12.2 or 11.8mm Rhino shaft.

    Just wanted to put this out there for someone that is trying to decide on diameters on a Rhino carbon. I have owned all 3 in past couple years. I really like the Rhinos for the money. It didnt hardly take me any adjustment at all going from a standard 12.5mm custom shaft to the Rhino. The 12.4...

    Who are the Best Female Bankers?

    I am a big fan of bank pool. The other night i was watching a couple of women's pro 9-ball and10 ball matches. One of the players which i really like is Wei Wei. She made a couple of banks that really impressed the heck out of me. She did not baby the banks or just hit them at a firm speed, she...

    Advantages or Disadvantages does it make a difference Stepping into the shot vs. stepping back from the shot?

    I understand where you are coming from on this. This would be something I could definitely use. When practicing, go down on the shot if everything is comfortable, you are lined up, need no adjustment, pocket the ball and stand up then see where you are positioned etc. I know i over analyze...

    Advantages or Disadvantages does it make a difference Stepping into the shot vs. stepping back from the shot?

    Bob I really never thought about that. But thinking about it my left foot when i step into the shot is definitely more forward. Ok i measured a few things. On a long straight in shot, 2nd diamond to 2nd diamond diagonal. Regular stance i am centered of the ball about my belt buckle. I always...
