    stroke help

    If you go setup to the cue ball on any shot and place your cue tip at the cue ball, your forearm to your elbow should be 90 degrees. Wherever your grip hand is at cue ball impact is where it should be with that 90 degrees. Just remember that this is for a specific bridge length too, which...

    How Does Your Potting Rate - Potting Test.

    BUMP :) I don't play a lot of tournaments so I don't have a really solid handicap. In APA I am a 6 and I attribute that more to safety play and decision making than pocketing ability. I also have JoeT's Guaranteed Improvement which gives some guidelines for handicap based on the drills in it. I...

    Eliminating head movement: Calling all instructors.

    I have recently discovered that this was a huge detriment to my game. I have been working pretty hard at eliminating head movement. I would think it really has to do with when the person is moving their head. For me, I was moving (and probably still am) during switching my sight back and forth...

    Young lady w perception/aiming error

    JoeT :) Hi highly recommend Joe Tucker also, especially when it comes to aiming and perception of the shot. I have been messing around with a lot of his tools and and discovering quite a bit about myself and my left eye dominance. As for your teammate, if she closes one eye and lines up the...

    Slippery Linen Wrap? Tennis Grip Solution?

    So, after searching on this topic, I have found that many people prefer a wrapless cue or at least a leather wrap over a linen wrap because they get more feel and can have a looser grip with less slippage. In my quest to make my cue less slippery, I have called a couple places and been quoted...

    Jacked Up Shots

    Hey Louis, I was hoping to get some input from you on jacked up shots either due to a rail or having to bridge over a ball? Do you address the shots any differently in terms of how you aim them? Are there any general tips about these shots you could provide? Thanks in advance for the help. ~jj~

    F/S Beautiful Cocobolo / Birdseye Maple / Elk antler Keith with 2 shafts

    Nice Cue I had a chance to shoot with this cue today. I must say two things: First, Keith did a great job shipping this out quickly and it arrived within a matter of days after being purchased. Secondly the cue hits great. It has great feel and the balance is also very nice. Great Work Keith!!!

    Meucci European E-2 Value

    Hello, sorry if this isn't the right place for this, but I was wondering if someone could give me some sort of price range for a meucci E-2 in near-mint condition. I have a friend with one, and another friend interested in it and neither of them really know the value. I was hoping to keep...

    Looking for info on a Meucci Cue

    Perfect, thanks guys. It is an E-2. I understand they are fairly common. Any idea what something like this is worth if it were in near-mint condition? Thanks again.

    Looking for info on a Meucci Cue

    Hey Guys, I have stumbled upon a Meucci that I need help identifying and maybe associating a value with. It is a plain charcoal cue. Based on what I have found, I am guessing either an FL-2 or an AU-2 but I can't find pictures on the web of either. The cue has no points, linen wrap. It has...

    Want a table, how much would you expect to spend?

    I would say most gold crowns are in the price range of 1k-2k with the nicer/newer ones costing more. For a barbox I see a lot of valley's or dynamos going for around 500-1k. I would look on craigslist and search all areas for "pool" and just see what you come up with. Lots of tables, cues...

    Purpleheart titlist, converter needed

    No problem. I just picked up a Willie Hoppe Professional myself. I have been endlessly researching these cues and have found that mine was made somewhere in 1941-1945 range. I can't figure out the value of it because it seems to be pretty rare in that it doesn't have the brass joint collar...
