Anybody want a great playing cue?

I'd also be interested in a trade for a nice sneaky plus some cash.

Up for sale is a 6pt Carmeli with two shafts. One shaft is a little over 13mm (unplayed) and the other is 12.75. The weight of the cue is 19.0 oz. The last pic shows the only flaw in the cue. I'm asking $1600 shipped. If you are in the Raleigh, NC area shoot me a PM and you can see it in person.

I don't have a video but I'm sure its on Accu-stats Mika dogged a pretty easy shot in the finals of the 2009 US Open. I remember watching it and I couldn't believe he missed. It's mentioned in the overview at the link below. http://www.azbilliards.com/2000storya.php?storynum=7055

The willard tip tool is great but the it's george tip tool is better imo. For burnishing, Q smooth papers or the tiger shaft smoother work great.

I went to the Advanced and Expert class when they came through Charlotte, NC. It was well worth it. Randy and Scott are great instructors.

Scotch doubles might help. Even practicing you both get to shoot equally and you can help coach her on how to play the shots.

Try adding a ball and playing the 10 ball ghost. Then 11, 12, etc.

I guess I got lucky. I ate lots of pizza and at least one of each sub on the menu with no problems.

Thanks. That was my high run. I can get in the 20s and 30s often but that was my first one over 50. I'm working on playing better patterns. Typically I don't play the end of the rack very well.

1/18/10 run of 55. I ran 56 and had a good break ball. Made it and scratched off the rack.

Don't think its a typo. Individually they are listed for $5 as a HOT DEAL! I'm ordering the set now.

The tip has a lot to do with personal preference. I like Kamui black M and my text tip I'm going to try out the Kamui black S.

I've always thought the willard was the best until I got an its george. Its the same kind of abrasive material as the willard but as better design.

I bought the videos and got the book with the videos. They both have some great info. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to improve their fundamentals.
