    WANTED: Cheap Cuetec/Excalibur Cue

    Hi, I am in search of a cheap cuetec or cuetec excailibur cue. Black butt/shaft is a plus. Graphite is better. Condition isn't that important, as long as it's still straight and there are no gouges out of the cue. The cheaper the better. I know there are a few people out here who started...

    Jersey Red Shot

    I just finished the book "Hustler Days". In it they describe a shot made famous by Jersey Red. It is a kiss-kick shot he used in one-pocket. The book describes it poorly and I am not exactly sure what the shot is. Could someone please diagram it on the WEI, tell me how to shoot it, or...

    Table difficulty

    yeah, 2 balls dont come close to fitting. I am gonna guess they are about 4" wide. They are fairly deep too. When shot hard, balls tend to rattle and hang fairly deep inside the pocket. I pity the people who just come into this restaurant and want to shoot around a few games and aren't that...

    Table difficulty

    Hi, There are only 2 places to play pool around here. Neither are all that great. I have 2 options. I can go to the pool hall, which has beat up old(non-gold crown) 9-foot brunswicks with old worn cloth. None of these tables are even close to level. I avoid that place. Whenever I have to...

    Side-pocket bank

    I have encountered the need to use this shot several times, however I have no way to aim this kind of bank. It's a 2 rail bank into a side pocket. First using a head/foot rail and then a side rail. Here is an example of one of the many forms of this bank...

    314 seems to deflect normally

    I think you are a little to eager to say the predator is the best shaft ever. Any straight shaft would pass that test with flying colors. That test only matters on the stroke. If you can't pass that test 9/10, you shouldn't be shooting with a predator...you shouldn't even be shooting with a...

    The truth about sneaky petes

    What would be the rough cost of something like that? That would be if I sent you the cue butt, and wanted a 5/16-14 joint installed. I wouldn't need a shaft made.

    Vivian Villarreal on ESPN2

    I don't know the full extent of it, because it was an edited tape(could have easily removed any sort of argueing and not shown it), and the announcers were(for once) silent about what went on. She seemed mighty upset at Lee over whatever she was doing.

    Vivian Villarreal on ESPN2

    I am not saying players should be robots without emotion. I am just saying she took it a little too far. I can see if you are just playing an exhibition game, but this was a real tournament game, and she is flat out taunting the other player. And in a previous match, the one shown at 11, I...

    Initial 314 impressions

    With the predator shaft, you dont feel the hit as much...it is more dead. It is something many people don't like. Try putting a moori on the predator. I have a moori quick(hard) that has been soaked and pressed(makes it even harder) installed on my 314. I can draw 2+ table lengths and I...

    Vivian Villarreal on ESPN2

    I was watching the match on at noon today with Vivian Villarreal. She shoots a good game, I am not questioning that...I was just embarassed by the way she acted! I was suprised they didn't put on werewolfs of london and have her start swinging her cue around. And then her comment that was...

    314 received!

    My shaft looked ridiculously cheap and played terribly. It had 5 growth rings total. It was stiff and hit way too hard for me to like. BTW on the Jacoby shaft I had a moori hard, just like on my predator shaft. So it isn't the tips. Plus the predator shaft also fits my sneaky pete by a...

    314 received!

    I just got a 314 shaft I ordered for my Jacoby last week. I love it. I didn't have to get 'used' to anything at all. On shots that I compensated for deflection, I just remember to compensate a little less. Everything is going into the pockets for me.

    Danny Harriman?

    no...no gambling we were just shooting around for fun, i recognized he was way better than i was. it would be foolish to play someone like that for money unless he gave me quite a bit on the wire :)

    Danny Harriman?

    I was watching 7ball on ESPN today with Danny Harriman. I had never seen him before. Does anyone know what he is doing now? As crazy as this sounds, my jaw dropped the floor when I watched him play...last week at a local sports bar with a few really nice 9' tables that I usually go to, there...

    Cases for longer cues

    My playing cue and break cue are 2" longer than normal cues, one extra inch on the butt and one extra inch on the shaft. This creates a prolem with cases. I tried to put it in my friends Instroke case(without the joint protectors) and it didn't close. What is a good quality case that I can...
