    Poison cues anybody play with one?

    Never had one , and not trying to discourage you from getting one , but it looks like they have a brand specific pin . If you want to get a replacement shaft from another maker/after market it may be tough or you may have a longer wait time .

    Dennis Wins - has this been done before?

    t sounds like I'm hearing everybody say that only Dennis can do this or that he is the only one that can run out over and over...., again the American players just dont want it bad enough to put in the work. This American guy named Corey Deuel was doing this soft break thing about 10 years ago...

    Tournament pet peeve

    Every bar should have this regardless , tourney or not . This would save boatloads of time and fights when trying to explain rules when someone challenges a table .

    perhaps silly question about joint tightness

    To bad cue makers don't have torque spec. like automobile manufacturers . My Dad always told me to hand thread new spark plugs , but he he didn't tell me exactly how tight to tighten a oil filter when you didn't have a filter wrench , it was a problem when i put a new filter on till experience...

    I feel terrible for what I did.

    You inadvertently did the guy a favor , he won't be worrying about putting dings in his new cue now . It was bound to happen anyway , if he actually shoots pool and doesn't just look at it . If he is one of those pool cue collector types he is probably border line psychotic and most likely takes...

    My New Prulhiere Custom Cue Design in Progress

    I like it , don't take this wrong but there was a production import cue that i liked that was similar , only problem was is it had white rings in the joint collars and i didn't like that because they are hard to match with replacement shafts from different makes. If it would have had solid...

    8' table dimensions throw your game off?

    Other factors come into play that affect the angles coming up short or whatever. Consider the cushions: are they new, old, height, angle, etc. The cloth also can come into play: new, old, clean, dirty, material of cloth. Think one of these would be the reason why , and also the wear on the...

    Who is your favorite pool commentator?

    Yes , think Mitch gets ragged because he is the one to keep the flow going , but tends to be the one doing the fluff profile stuff . Telestrator man was there for one of the best television matches i have seen between Bustamante and Chao , or is it Fong or Pang ?:) If they ever rerun the...

    Who is your favorite pool commentator?

    Don't have a favorite , but Billy I is good with just a host , not another pro in the pairing . He and Danny D get off on tangents . When he tells you what he thinks a player will do and they don't , he tells you why they went another route . Ewa Mataya does a decent job minus Mitch .

    Actually you can think bad thoughts and commit bad deeds and live a prosperous and long life with no retribution . It rains on the just and unjust alike .

    Zero x system

    You know , i wish the best for Jimmy , and i'm not going to try to sort things out from limited information and the fact that i know neither of these guys . When things get tough in life people tend to start blaming others for their predicaments , i've done it myself. When people started dogging...

    Joint collars

    If your talking about the black plastic collars , i couldn't help you with the difference in hit , or if they serve a practical purpose like supporting and strengthening the joint . If cue makers buy a standardized size collar it would help you buy a replacement shaft from various shaft makers .
