    Have you accepted the fact that you are a pool player for life?

    Yep, that's me First of all, great thread and great posts from everybody! I'm turning 30 this year, and have been playing pool for something like 8 years now.

    Plain wrapless cue

    Thanks! Thank you all for the info. Lots of great recommendations here.
