    what did you really think about meucci cues?

    These two statistics are accurate in match play, but I cant remember tournament play. I have never lost to a player with a Meucci cue. I have NEVER lost to a player with a pool glove. This is because most top players understand they are inferior as marketed, and most Pro players that...

    Who wins? Bartrum or Lassiter?

    Please.... I dont understand why a guy plays a few long sets and is labeled the long set king. I saw the stream. Where were the packs? Where was the Smart, creative play after several hours. The ONLY reason the set went long is because niether player could beat the other. Nothing against...

    You know what I hate?

    geometricky Once you figure out the geometry, physics and general math of pool, you have consumed a lot of time and memory. THEN your geometry and physics cant calculate throw, spin, hold, etc, without simply exceeding the processing power of the human brain. I hereby call out the human...

    Why I never bought one....

    Jay, the predators are drilled at the end to reduce the weight of the tip end of the shaft - reduced weight at the tip equals less deflection. Not that that is necessarily a good thing...

    Woodworth custom LIGHTNING Ivory/Gold/Leather

    Hey I have a beautiful Woodworth Custom cue. Paid 2400 new, Every bit of the work is just awesome, it has lightning bolt inlaid in Ivory on ebony points with tons of veneer. Joint, ferrules, and all inlays are true ivory, i tried to show the grain of ivory but could not get the camera right...

    Why I never bought one....

    If it was center drilled before the act of turning, a warped shaft could cause this. It would also explain why the pie pieces are not joined in the center of the cue.

    Agree here - But make note that lost in the writing of Billy Incardona's statement, isPROBABLY the vocal peak he so eloquently uses behind the booth to key us in that that shot in a different context MAY be the shot, so mark it in the memory banks. My earlier suggested shot is what I play...

    Why a segregation of Male and Female in this sport?

    Because the women pro's play generally less consistent or at a lesser speed than the males. I am not knocking them, there have been many great female players, but Jeanette vs any top 20 male player would not have won. Their game(female) is capable of the same ours is, I have noticed one...

    Instruct me!

    No!!! Use the thumb and first finger to cradle the cue, and when you reach the point that the cue does not slide you have reached the right tightness for a grip. Allow the pivoting of the cue at the (Thumb one side/finger on the other) point to actually cause the cue to bind in your hand...

    Instruct me!

    Just remember to smooth into the cueball, let gravity start your forward swing, NOT muscle force. Your muscles should smoothly increase to whatever speed you are going for. In conjunction with the previous reccommendation, you will develop a stroke above where you are. This will kill the...

    Instruct me!

    Strokin... Your stroke looks pretty smooth actually, Upon cueball contact it seems you have a bit of movement on the cuestick. This will either be because the contact is anticipated, and the cue is turned loose a tad, or punching a little as you stroke. A great way to move your stroke to...
