    Steve Dunkel

    Hey Stik I think your game has improved since you acquired the Dunkle cue and the shots I took with it told me it plays well. I really like the shaft and if I ever want to try some thing besides a Diviney Lake Salvage shaft I will get a 30" one like your shaft. Congrats on the Top Gun win...

    What do you do when in a slump?

    Wait it out I just wait it out as I know the slump could go away the next day and that eventually all of my mediocre pool skills will slowly deteriorate because of age and other interests. Going back to methodical fundamental self examination is a good idea.

    ^^^ He Has Risen ^^^

    Thanks Jesus is my risen Savior and I am eternally grateful for that. Nothing on earth stirs up the pot like some one saying Jesus. Many hate hearing His name. I am far from perfect and a sinner, but thanks to Jesus I am a forgiven sinner and trying to live a decent life.

    Installing a Pool Table in a Garage, Help.

    In floor heat I have a 9 footer in my 28'x36' garage that has in floor heat. If your going to be there a while think about it, its not that hard to lay some rebar, string the hose and pour a 4" cap on it. If that's to much then put an electric or propane heater in there.

    country of origin law

    Maybe I think most Americans have no problem buying items made in other countries if it saves them money. I buy cues from Pat Diviney in West Liberty, Iowa. An honest American craftsman!

    Beware of USPS

    Reimbursed Last Tues I shipped a rifle from Alaska to Oregon to have some work done on it. The rifle had guaranteed Thursday delivery or money back. It arrived on Friday and the Post Office promptly refunded me my shipping costs in cash. At least they made good on the guarantee!

    Taiwanese Pros and Predator?

    Go figure! This is why I suck at pool, I can't get reliable information on cues and shafts as every good player has their own preference. If they all would/could agree that a certain cue/shaft combo is the best then I could get one and be a world class player! I am doomed to always chasing...

    Beware of USPS

    Big bummer! Sorry about the lost items Jay. The frustration is compounded by no admitted errors on their part and friends/customers of yours are also effected. Seems like I am always using USPS for shipping cues and guns out for custom work. When I do I always insure the heck out the gun...

    What is your tip diameter?

    What is your preferred tip diameter for your playing shafts? Not trying to start a tip diameter debate, just curious about what the rest of you like. At this point in my life I seem to have settled on a 12.5 tip diameter. I have one 12.75 shaft that I just can't seem to get used to. I will...

    I'm torn on which jump cue

    Tip I think there are many good jump cues out there and each shooter has to find "their" jump cue, just like they have to find "their" shaft. I also think the tip is so important. I quit using G-10 for a jump tip as it marks the cue ball, I like the Samsara and it is good for breaking. I...

    SVB's amazing kick shot at the Dixieland Classic event

    Well Shane played it like I would have and Efren made the z shot like I would have. I thought every one knew those shots. If any of you would like to come to Alaska I will take you to my garage and demonstrate them for you on my 9' table. It would only take me a few thousand tries for each...

    Your shaft LD or regular Mayple?

    All I know I know many LD shafts are made from maple and I think most members here also know that. The Diviney Lake Salvage shafts are what I use and they run $250.00 and up. Pat told me he prefers his regular maple shafts, but one of his sons prefers the Lake Salvage shafts. Two of my...

    Best all around player ever?

    So Dennis is all the rage now it seems. Many, including his backers think he is the best. How would Efren do against him if Efren was in his prime? Does having a backer effect the out come compared to betting your own cash or tournament play? Efren certainly made some cash and had some big...
