    Refund Question ???

    Well, it depends on how well I knew the seller. I would probably be relatively patient right now just because it is an extremely busy time of year between Christmas/New Years. If the seller is a respectable person, you should be able to stay in contact with him/her so that you have a reasonable...

    Lightning bolt cueball?

    Thats probably your best bet. Is the ball on coin-op table w/ ball return, or a regular pocket table? If its a coin op table, the cue ball may be a wee bit bigger than the object balls and there are a few shots you can make with that larger cue ball that you can't do on a normal hourly pocket...

    Lucasi pronounciation. Been saying it wrong for years.

    I had a similar experience with Jacoby cues. I had played for several years with a Jacoby that I got a good deal on used. Stopped shooting pool for a year or two, and decided to start back up with the obsession last year. I travel alot with the work I do. I found myself in Springfield, IL at...

    Lightning bolt cueball?

    No... A friend of my mother was giving away an 8' foot table. not a great table but it is made with real slate and was free... so I took it. Apparently the friend's husband had ran off with another woman and the table was sitting unused and taking up space. The cue ball was with the set of balls...

    Lightning bolt cueball?

    Maybe sportscraft... could be wrong though, in anycase I wouldn't dwell on it too long. Lightening bolt on cue ball = bad. I've seen these balls around somewhere, probably cost like 20 bucks a set if there the ones I'm thinking of(however my memory is often impaired...) in terms of quality...

    What if?

    Do you have evidence of the cues condition prior to you shipping the cues to the other party; in addition do you have photos to document the damage that occurred some time post shipment of the cues on the others part? How do you know the cues weren't damaged in transit from you to the sender...

    The Billiard Hutch, Covington KY

    Whats the story on the casinos? There are some riverboat casinos in the area, like Argosy in Lawrenceburg, IN. I also know that there was some controversy over a race track in Evansville, IN for awhile... as it is in the floodplains, so when the river rose and surrounded the racetrack KY would...

    The Billiard Hutch, Covington KY

    I just want to give a shout out to the Billiard Hutch in Covington, KY. I do a lot of traveling and Covington is usually a place that I can count on for a night of couch surfing, good homemade food, and a pool hall within 5 minutes drive of my comfy couch. I went there yesterday, started to...

    McDermott i2 Shafts

    I2 shaft I shot a bit with he I2 shaft on recommendation from someone at Nielsen's in Springfield. They weren't an employee at the store, but obviously someone closely affiliated/friends with Joe and the crew. This dude told me I should try out I2, don't know if it is a "new" or "old" one. He...

    Evansville, IN area Pool Halls?

    Does anyone have any info on pool halls in the Evansville, IN area? I'm in town for awhile on business, it seems like all the pool halls numbers I've found are disconnected... which I assume means the establishment is no longer in business... Several people have recommended Sky Billiards Cafe...

    Nice predator 4-sale possible trade!

    Definitely not a 5K3, 5k3's have an ebony butt with micarta points. I have one. Don't know what model that is, it doesn't match up with any of the 5k cues on predators website, nor did I see it in the retired cues. It doesn't have the 314-2 shaft, so that is somewhat diagnostic I would say in...

    Justis Case Knockoff Design Thief Exposed

    again this thread is simply pathetic... you don't know me, yet some want to make judgements based on someones desire to simply research products before purchasing them. My only point is this, I would rather buy products from individuals that represent themselves in a professional manner, and can...

    Predator Cues, 5K3 and Sneaky Pete

    I can probably get a pic to you in the next day or so. I'm an archaeologist, and the job requires a lot of travel. I have the sneaky pete with me, so I'm going to try to borrow a co-workers camera and get some pics of it. The 5K3 is at home, so I will try to get my girlfriend to take some pics...

    Predator Cues, 5K3 and Sneaky Pete

    Anybody interested in purchasing a Predator 5K3 or Sneaky Pete? I'm out of town, unfortunately, and will post pics when I return home. They are each in good condition, the sneaky pete has one ding on the butt. Each cue is about 7 months old, bought them in a splurge after receiving a bonus. They...

    World Record Pool - 14.1

    I'm a little confused about Mosconi's record to begin with. In Hustler Days by R.A. Dyer, I think Dyer says in a footnote that the record of 526 was set on a 4 x 8 foot table. In The Hustler and The Champ, Dyer dedicates a chapter to this run. From a historical standpoint revealing precise...
