ive never seen any action at shoreline if thats what youre talking about

A NIT is definitely someone who is afraid to gamble who plays well. It is a pretty widely used term in the gambling world. In poker, it is a solid, tight player (plays good cards, very competent) but is unwillingly to put his money on the line unless he KNOWS he has the best hand.

Definitely Sugartree - I have had one on order since June. Here is a few pics. Not all these are under 500, but the SP and the plane jane should be

I have tried purrell, and it works kinda. I will go try the 90% rubbing alchohol right now, seeing as the purell works basically because it is about 60% rubbing alc. brb heh

wood definitely

So yeah - my hands typically get quite sticky while playing. Whether it from my personal body temp being high or a warm pool hall or what - it just happens. Not the shaft, I burnish it regularly (for better or worse). First i started shooting with a glove, and frankly, really despised that. I...

This has been an incredibly enlightening thread, thanks all. And yes, it makes large amounts of sense to think that during the era in which the 'older' pro's were learning, the only top end cues available, custom or otherwise, would come with a more structurally reliable material.

This comes across very odd to me. In watching the IPT and US 9 ball champs the last few days, it seems to me that 90% of the pro's are using SS joints. I have seen pagulayon/bustamante/deuel/varner/strickland/hall/and a load of other pro's all using a stainless steel joint. in fact, the only...
