    How to overcome fear of a certain type of shot

    I have always said “a cut is a cut is a cut”. A 45-degree cut, or any degree of cut, is the same degree of cut no matter where the balls are on the table. If you are able to actually see the rails and the pockets to orient yourself to the proper table alignment it is easier to visualize and...

    best cue you ever had or still have ???

    This is one of the best hitting cues I have hit with. I sold a custom cue that Richard Black made for me after playing with this cue. I bought it new in 1985. A C-14 from the 1980-84 C-series. I had it refinished by McDermott a few years back and had them make an additional shaft (bottom...

    How to overcome fear of a certain type of shot

    If you can see correctly, aim correctly, and stroke straight, there should be no real “problem” shots. If you are talking about trying to consistently make “circus” shots, that is another matter. I think a lot of people have problems with certain shots because they lose their “table...

    SVB to Kick Off High Run Attempts

    I, also, think he is bringing too many balls up table and leaving himself longer shots than what may be optimal.

    SVB to Kick Off High Run Attempts

    I know, but he must feel comfortable with it or he wouldn’t use it. He also didn’t get stuck in the rack.

    How straight did (does) Buddy shoot?

    I heard they used Buddy’s stroke to calibrate the accuracy of some of the early laser levels before they were put into production

    Sneaky Bastard from Florida

    I say that all the time, too. ”Folks, what we have here is a deadly, wild, 200 pound, rabid animal with 1,000 gnashing teeth and 8-inch razor-sharp claws down in this hole”. ”Jim, jump down in that hole and drag that SOB out here so we can show the audience “.

    Sneaky Bastard from Florida

    I used to watch Wild Kingdom With Marlin Perkins. I don’t think he knew much about cues. He used to always say tigers were predators.

    Cue ID

    Looks like maybe an A. E. Schmidt MF-11 that someone modified. If it is a Titlist blank and you see the name”Hoover” under the wrap, it was made by Lloyd Bennett at A. E. Schmidt. I have a MF-12 made by him.

    Sneaky Bastard from Florida

    Everybody who has a Searing raves about his shafts, so I wanted to try one out and see for myself how they play. Also, I wanted a shaft with an ivory ferrule. Tucker isn’t making cues anymore and I haven’t seen a Tucker shaft for sale. Plus, I have two Tucker shafts already. My Tucker...

    Sneaky Bastard from Florida

    Just got a Dennis Searing shaft to pair up with my Murray Tucker Sneaky butt. Got the original Tucker shafts stashed in the case. Needed another shaft to bang around with. It is the only shaft I have now that has an ivory ferrule. I am calling this rig the Sneaky Bastard from Florida since...

    Convert radial or 3/8-10 drilled shaft to 5/16-14
