The JB 2x5/3x4 is his best design in my opinion. The shape combined with the fact that the two main butt sections are at the sides give them more room than his larger cases where all the butts go in the middle. And while they don't stretch, the foam does compress a little over time. They're...

I haven’t spent any real time with a BK3 but the BK4 is excellent. I had a BK Rush and the BK4 is pretty much its equal. I even just got a BK Rush shaft for my BK4 butt after selling the BK Rush full cue, just to have both the wood and carbon options for my BK4. Anyway, took it out with the...

I love a good simple cue like that, especially when it’s made with a gorgeous piece of wood! Ive only experience my Treadway jump/break but it makes me want to try me of his playing cues, it’s a really nicely built cue. Congrats!

Yeah, I've tried three different times. First time it wouldn't work at all. Second time is sorta worked for a bit and then stopped. This time it worked for a little but I didn't have time to watch too long so no clue if it's working better for real or not. Will try again sometime soon.

Yeah, I signed up for a month to check it out and I'm probably gonna cancel because I can't easily get it on my TV, I can get AirPlay to work about half the time but half the time it doesn't work for some reason I can't figure out. Never had that problem using it with other sites. Lack of...

The new carbon jump cues make a difference for sure, they are just easier. I have or have had a Cuetec Avid, Predator Air II, Predator Air Rush, and currently a Wheat State. I've also used a Propel before. The Wheat State is my favorite by far but it's also very hard to get ahold of one...

Yeah, I had a BK Rush and a BK4 and they broke almost exactly the same...maybe the BK Rush had the tiniest bit less deflection but I'm not even sure of that. Ended up selling the BK Rush because I had the green set of BK Rush and Air Rush and it was worth a bit of $$$ on the used market and I...

At least it's not as bad as Whyte/Triple 60! Their shafts are already expensive at $600 but the $150 up-charge to $750 to get a 30" shaft is ridiculous!

I have no problem with a truly obvious jump shot. If it's pretty clear to any knowledgeable player what the shooter is intending to do (jump over a ball, contact the intended object ball and make it in an open pocket) then I have no problem with an opponent treating it as an obvious shot. I...

I've tried a fair few and I keep going back to the Ultimate Tip Tool and the little piece of leather that Kamui includes with their tip protectors. The blade style ones I've had trouble getting to cut smoothly and evenly without damaging the ferrule. I try to keep on top of it by maintaining...

All those newbies at the pro tournaments with their carbon shafts and measle cue balls.

Yeah, if I was playing in those kind of tournaments I'd be practicing with a shot clock all the time to get used to it. I'm sure there is an app one could find for their phone that would work to give auditory cues during a practice session. I'm probably biased because I'm naturally a quick...

They usually have some here https://billiardsuperstore.com/cue-cases/?_bc_fsnf=1&brand=175 I have a black/grey 3x5 that I just use for storage at the moment that I got from them ^

Wonder if those would fit in the pockets of my king case. Link to those containers on Amazon? I like that idea

I could see a tan or medium brown leather looking really nice on that, not too figured though, keep it simple. Or white with brown spec linen....probably not a super popular choice but I like linen wraps.
