    Double-Shafted, No-Butt, Jump Cue

    I'm reporting back after having purchased one of these unbranded double shafted jump cues off eBay. It came with two shafts (that can indeed screw together) and also a butt. With the two shafts screwed together, I can jump ok with the longer shaft, but the shorter shaft (the one having the butt...

    Jim Rempe training ball instructions needed

    One thing's for sure: Taom brand chalk would be a bad choice for use with this training ball; its the cleanest chalk I've used. My buddy gifted me a roll of this blue Predator band chalk (where each "cube" is shaped like an octagon). Even if you dipped the JRTB in solvent, I believe this chalk...

    Allison Fisher Billiard Aim Trainer

    This is an awesome tool for gaining insight and perception on problem shots during practice. Whoever designed this, and got it to market, ought to be very proud of that accomplishment. I love it.

    Double-Shafted, No-Butt, Jump Cue

    Thanks. I'm very glad you came across my post, because I was having no luck finding this otherwise. I ordered one from the very link you provided. I look forward to giving it a try. At the very least, I'm sure it will be a conversation piece each time I pull it out. I'm trying to manage my...

    Double-Shafted, No-Butt, Jump Cue

    My friend Sonny Bosshamer took a picture of this jump cue today at Big Tyme Billiards. He said he the owner was jumping well with it and quite easily. I think the idea is that one side is for long jump shots and the other side is for shorter ones. I tried searching for one like it online, but...

    Who is Jack Hines?

    Thanks for posting that and giving me some confirmation. Does anyone remember the old cartoon "Heckle and Jeckle"? I haven't seen it since I was a kid, but I remember the two main characters were crows. The corn farmer would go to great lengths to get rid of these two pesky crows, but every...

    Highest Fargo rating out there I found was 940

    Joshua Filler has an 850 fargo right now, and I heard he's sandbagging.

    Recording pool matches camera angle

    Modern TVs are wider than they are tall. Their aspect ratio is typically 16 units wide by 9 units tall. So, orientating a pool table, to watch the game from the side does indeed offer the closest perspective you can have with the balls on the table. I'd like to see more matches from the...

    Pool Table Mechanic Directory

    I came here to testify my highest recommendation: Shane Johnson (based near Houston) 406-224-5322‬ He turned an ok table into the best I ever played on. Anyone else would have called it "good enough" hours before the PERFECTION he achieved. I can max-slow-roll the cue ball, table length, in any...

    Cuephoric (Shane) Can you believe he did this?

    Someone recommend Shane Johnson to me, but gave me a phone number that's not working: 346-600-8306. Does anyone have a current number for Shane? I'd like to hire him, but can't seem to figure out how to contact him (been googling....).
