The Black Widow may be more approachable and a better rep, but it's definitely a step down in my opinion. Allison Fisher is the greatest female player in history in my opinion. Replacing her with anyone else is like replacing Michael Jordan with anyone else.

Does anyone know? After many years of wanting to get my hands on a good set of Brunswick Centennials, I finally did off eBay. However, I didn't buy a new set. I got a set that must be at least 20 years old, but they are in EXCELLENT shape, almost brand new by appearance. I am sure they are...

I love Dufferin. I was sad when I heard that they went out of business and sold their inventory and basically everything else to a Chinese company that is making cheaper cues under the venerable Dufferin name. When I was about 12 and got my Brunswick table that I still have today, my parents...

I'm blind as a bat, I have to have eye correction as soon as I wake up to basically do anything. I have the exact opposite problem. I can't play in my glasses, I hate how I can't see in my side view, and they always seem to slide down, or get in the way, or some other problem. I play in my...

Well, hey, are we talking about an actual cue made by George Balabushka or a cue that bears the Balabushka name? Cause today you can still get cues that are replicas of Balabushka cues, for say $500 or so at lots of retailers and online.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Dufferin cues. The company used to make very good solid cues. I have yet to try any of their cues now, but try to get your hands on some old ones, eBay is pretty good sometimes... Never had one warp at all. I lost a tip on 1 cue once, had to glue it back on, but other...

From Wiki and Reference.com... "Cruise performed most of the trick shots himself using a Joss N-7 custom-made to resemble a George Balabushka cue as it was supposed to be in the film." So, the answer is that it is the Joss N-7 cue, but that it was made to look like a Balabushka. So, if you...
