I 100% believe in manifestation. I've seen it far too often in my life. Your attitude, intent, desire, and vision impacts all areas of your life to include pool. If someone saw where I came from and where I am now they would also say I'm "lucky", and I would not argue with them.

Love it!

On the new Southwest that I had delivered years ago (after a 16 year wait) I had one of the shafts made with the pro taper, and I liked that one much better.

I've played with steel joints for years (Schon and Joss). I still love Schon and Joss cues (I have several in my stash of cues), but for play I have recently switched to the basic Meucci cue. I really like the hit and feel. I have two new Meucci cues now - a gambler (with the Joker cards) and a...

Own as many as your heart desires.

I've switched to wrapless after years of playing with irish linen...and I really like the wrapless. I feel like I can grip the cue even looser but it won't slip out of my fingertips.

That's it. It just takes a minute. Knocking the dust and grime off each time keeps it nice, paying special attention to the ferrule and tip.

I thoroughly wipe down my cue with a soft cloth or dry paper towel after every session. I make sure to wipe off the ferrule, and end of the tip as well, removing any remaining chalk. This keeps my cues looking really nice after years of play. I can't stand a dirty ferrule.

Two different pressures. Competing aggressively in both will help your game.

I loved those forearms with the small arrows, and white inlay. Very unique and cool! I wish they would come back out with some designs inspired by this.

That stinks! Hope you're able to find another one that you like.

Still playing with the new Meucci. I've played about 5 "competitive" matches...and only booked one loser out of the 5 - and that went hill/hill, playing even, against a better one pocket player. I played great in that match. He just had the last break, and laid it down so good I didn't have an...

Right now, while I still collect certain JOSS cues - my main player is a new Meucci Gambler with the pro shaft. I think they play/feel fantastic.

Nahh...I'm a 314-3 player if shooting with a JOSS/SCHON. Used the 314 for 20+ years.

That should serve you well for a lifetime!
