    Help me identifying this cue

    I'm interested in this cue which is supposed to be an old longoni 5 stars carom cue. The cue doesn't have the longoni logo or the stars, but who is selling me the cue swears it is in fact a longoni 5 stars of 15 years old. I'm not able to recognize the cue because it doesn't have the longoni...

    straight rail vs three cushions shaft

    What's the difference between a shaft used for the free game or straight rail against a shaft for playing 3 cushions? Some time ago I bought a cue and discovered recently it has a straight rail shaft but I use it for playing three cushions. Could my game suffer because I'm not using the correct...

    is an Elk Master tip too soft?

    i tried laminated tips sometime ago... I tried kamui black and brown S and M, not very satisfied... they played very hard and glazing very often. I also tried DaVinci and one was actually quite good but another even tho it is S played rock hard and didn't hold chalk well ( maybe defective?)...

    is an Elk Master tip too soft?

    I understand. The point is I'm not really familiar with cuetips, I basically played with whatever cuetip I got and played for a while with elkmaster and I don't know if I'm missing something by playing with it and should look for harder tips. I just recently switched to three cushions from pool.

    Multi Layered tips vs single layer tips

    Do Multi Layered tips create more spin compared to single layer tips? I heard they do, but I don't know if it is true or just a myth. Thank you.

    is an Elk Master tip too soft?

    I really like Elk Master tip on my cue but a lot of players in my room said they are too soft for playing three cushions and I should look for a harder tip, probably multilayered. Honestly I'm not very knowledgeable about cuetips and I didn't know what to reply. What do you think?

    Tip hardness charts are unreliable

    I miscue more often with a kamui. Other players have similar problems. I rarely miscue using other tips. Anyway, I play three cushion billiards, so I use extreme side more often than in pool.

    Tip hardness charts are unreliable

    I like the hit of soft tips and I always played with elkmaster and mori soft. Unfortunately mori tips aren't available anymore and I have played with elkmaster tips. Unfortunately they need a lot of maintenance and mushroom very easily. So I was looking for a LL tip as soft as elkmaster but with...

    Dropping your elbow

    snooker players don't drop the elbow is just a myth. Most of them drop the elbow during the backstroke ( this keeps the cue level ) and after contacting the cueball.

    Would you be willing to dress nice to raise the opinion of billiards?

    Pool is not a sport and it doesn't require any phisical effort. I have played at the italian championship with a vest, shirt and bowtie. It's the same of playing with a sweatshirt and sweatpants. The bowtie puts a little strain on the neck, but that's it. I also feel in Italy billiards is seen...

    Tip maintenance

    thank you guys for the advices on not using the compressor, I'll keep it in mind! Anyway I don't use that tool that often, I only use it when I see the tip is getting too flat and when is mushrooming. I only use the side trimmer, the top shaper ( rarely) and the diamond surface ( to tap the...
