    You have to try the Zan Premium Soft, it's a true soft tip. A bit more expensive than the regular soft.

    Mezz Avant (Wavy 2) Cue Review

    Only once I couldn't bring a cue on the plane. Aside from that I don't need to prove anything to you, and anyway it is a stupid rule with no logic. Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk

    Mezz Avant (Wavy 2) Cue Review

    One thing to keep in mind is that their founder and original owner left or was forced out of the company a few months ago. I'm not sure if or how that impacts their quality. Last I heard, he is starting a new cue making business in Thessaloniki. I have always dealt with him personally when...

    Mezz Avant (Wavy 2) Cue Review

    In Europe it's mostly not a problem, me and friends have done it regularly. When leaving from the US it's sometimes a problem, depending on the airport and security people. I do think if it's broken down and inside your carry on, no one would bat an eye. Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk

    Mezz Avant (Wavy 2) Cue Review

    Hey I ended up selling it to a young guy at the pool hall who was looking for his first quality cue. There were two small issues for me, the wavy 2 pin didn't fit tightly with my wavy shafts and it being wrapless, I couldn't get used to it. I play with IQ shafts always, in my opinion better...

    Balsa wood ferrule

    I think balsa would be terrible for ferrules. I know it well from table tennis rackets. It is spongy, the air inside is compressed on hard hits and acts like a spring. The results would be unpredictable. Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk

    My experience with Schmelke

    I'm not the one going around insulting people. Maybe take a good hard look in the mirror and deal with your own frustrations, ei ? Sent from my SM-G781B using Tapatalk

    Kamui's do you prefer tan or black?

    I have played with both and my preference is tan/original. Kamui black are both harder and more bouncy (elastic) than the brown for a given hardness e.g. M. The Black has a smaller grain size resulting in it being smoother, so it it less good at holding chalk and it glazes more. When you shape...

    My experience with Schmelke

    No. When a supplier accepts the work and you pay per individual component (ring in this case) and the measurement of that ring is written in the quote/order form, they have to deliver what they committed and got paid for. It has nothing to do with the price point, which is not as cheap as you...

    tiger emerald green vs Pechauer Jade

    Joliet, I know the brand and that they come from factory on some cues. I was only saying that the 4 brands that I listed have the largest following for a reason, and they are a safer bet for someone who doesn't know what tip to choose than more niche brands. I hbae also used all 4 and I can talk...

    tiger emerald green vs Pechauer Jade

    You're clueless! In Europe I haven't heard anyone using Tiger. I don't think most tip installers even carry them. I'm a member of a a few cue buying and selling pages and when they list the specs, I haven't seen anyone say that the tip is Tiger. You may have a preference, but I was stating...

    Mezz Wavy Joint

    I have no idea. I haven't seen the tap myself. But I explained my observation with waavy and wavy 2 which indicates it is the minor diameter that gives the tight feeling, not the outer.
