    What is this cue worth?

    Hey guys! So I’ve had this cue for about a year now, one of my friends who is a collector gave it to me as a gift. I didn’t ask him for the original shaft because I had always planned on using my cynergy anyway so all I’ve got is the butt. It’s. Jacoby from 1995 that in my opinion is still in...

    This could be great for beginners!

    http://i.imgur.com/3pi1HF7.gifv Obviously it won't take into account conditions or English, but this would be really helpful to learn basic kicks, banks, and angles. It would also be helpful to demonstrate how speed and English affect things.

    Question for custom cue owners

    I don't personally have a super expensive custom cue, but my philosophy is that if the cue isn't meant for collecting, than it's meant to be played with. What's the point of getting a bad ass custom cue to not use it? Small dings are going to happen, its just part of playing pool. Be careful not...

    King of Texas?

    You did: "Beating the 10 Ball ghost on a 10' table is easy for me, and I'm not sure why. In Atlanta I played the ghost on "JAWS" (a super tight table) and ran 27 racks in a row..." If you weren't saying JAWS was a ten footer it sure sounded like it. Also, how does someone say they ran 27 racks...

    King of Texas?

    Ok am I going to be the only one to doubt the validity of CJ running 27 racks of 10 ball on a "super tight" ten foot table?...........

    The Worst Rule in Pool

    I hate this rule. I can do a bank carom off 4 balls and 6 rails, calling everything and it wouldn't count with the "goes clean" rule. Talk about dumbing the game down...

    The Worst Rule in Pool

    The reason you are allowed to hit a frozen ball is because it's impossible to NOT double hit a frozen ball no matter what angle you hit it at, unless you shoot away and kick at it. At the instant in time that you make contact with the cue ball, the cue ball is touching the object ball. The...

    English 8-Ball (Black ball) Rule Needed

    You are in the wrong forum. With that said there is NO such circumstance as far as I'm aware. I know in some call-shot call-safety 10 ball games if you call the shot and miss(making a legal hit) your opponent has the option to give you back the shot.

    BCA league night - foul or no foul?

    To do what you are saying is VERY difficult, even with a jump cue. To do what you are saying with a regular shooting cue is damn near impossible. To do what you are saying with a shooting cue AND that slow of a stroke.. impossible. His cue comes down on the ball, imparts backspin, cue ball hits...

    Your DREAM table?

    How can you call your room complete without an unlevel, dirty, slow as molasses, valley table? How else are you gonna practice for those bar tournaments!

    ★ Shane Van Boening vs Jayson Shaw ★ Sept. 12th & 13th

    Kind of a cheap payout for a race to 100 isnt it? If it goes hill hill than the winner is effectively making 25$ per game.

    When Ronnie Ronnie O'Sullivan knows his 12th maximum break is a done deal.

    Man he made some amazing shots in that run..Those two shots in the side were unbelievable. His accuracy and stroke blow my mind. The way he draws the ball ~8 feet to within an inch of where he wants with such ease is crazy.

    OB Classic Plus

    I ordered one and had it sent to schon to have them put the joint on. I'm getting it in 2 days and I'll update with my thoughts! I also ordered it as a 30" variant so I'll comment on that too! I will say I've owned a 314 2 and an ob classic, which has been my shooter the last ~year and a half...
