Enjoyed the match, started watching around end of 2nd set and watched until the end. Hate the shootout finish, like everyone else it appears, especially for a world championship. Stupid way to decide things at the end, would have much rather seen them play out 1 final rack.

I've started doing this some too and it has helped. I won't force it, if I get straight in on the money ball and just need a stop shot I'll go with the stop shot, but even a stop shot is picking your spot for the cue ball so it kinda counts. For most other shots I'll usually go for center...

Good video, thanks for sharing, definitely wrote down a couple things in my pool notes to try to incorporate into my playing

Always good to get a little perspective, thanks for sharing.

Should be I think, the Pantheras have some Pred specs but are built like other Jacoby’s construction wise. Playing a Jacoby myself currently and it’s a great cue.

what kind of joint are you asking about? His steel joints are a little smaller, about .830. I would guess that holds true for his other joints as well but I don’t know that for sure, just seems most cue makers settle on a single joint diameter for all their cues.

Yeah, I’ve noticed them not quieting the crowd on 9 balls a couple times, don’t like it.

Tyler is like a different player today, he found some confidence somewhere and it’s paying off for him, glad to see it. Now lets close it out, one more

That was such a bad shot, I didn’t like that decision, little high and right seems way easier to not screw up massively like that

Looking forward to it, just signed up for WNT.TV and have Wed-Fri off work so I can watch live!

I have sweaty hands. Been using gloves since they were very uncool, used to be the only person in my league that ever used one. Now almost everyone does. It is less necessary with a carbon shaft for sure, but I still like the consistency in feel it brings regardless of if my hands are sweaty...

Good looking cue, I really like those rings a lot!

I owned a 9k and a K-Series Classic which covers two of those construction methods. Didn't notice any difference between them with the same shaft. Both good, both came dead straight and stayed that way. Haven't owned a P3 myself but have shot with one a few times, that one does feel a...

I had good luck with a couple minor issues, Predator treated me right. Had tips pop off twice. First was on a fairly new Revo shaft, reported the issue and they sent a shipping label and turned the repair around same day they received it. All told I think it took only a week before I had my...

I've often thought a shaft that was mostly carbon but switched to wood for the 6" or so nearest the joint would make a lot of sense. All the performance benefits of carbon but with a material that could be easily matched to an existing cue from joint diameter to ring work, just like a wood shaft.
