Update: Well, This has been a runaround. I attempted to exchange the shaft for another one. Nielsen’s was very nice and apologized for the issue. They assured me they would have the new shaft checked out first and send it as soon as they reviewed the tracking number for my return. Then I...

It just forces you to focus more on center pocket after you rattle 5 or 6 that should have dropped. I don't think players naturally focus on where the ball drops in the pocket... just the fact that it drops. Missing balls will tighten your stroke, but it's not worth destroying your confidence...

I did a lot of research before tightening my home table pockets, and decided on 4.5” corners. It still let’s you cheat the pocket, which is a skill you’ll need at the pool hall, while also being tight enough to straighten your shot.

I won 12 of 13 matches as a 6 last session without playing anyone under a 5. I thought that would move me up, but I'm still a 6. Last week I got beat 4-1 by a "new to APA 6". The match went 10 innings. We are already qualified for our regional tournament, so we are looking to go back to...

It seems like a very reputable seller that’s been around a long time. Nielsen’s Billiards in Illinois. I think the website is joerackem.com. I requested a return and sent a couple emails with no response. The online reviews are awesome, but I’m not having any luck yet. I’ll call their...

I ordered a new J Pechauer shaft off ebay. It has a much longer taper than my older JP shaft. My concern is that the tip measures 11.75mm, but 6-8" up the shaft measures closer to 11.6mm or less. Does that seem unusual for the taper to go further in? I'm still debating on whether or not to...

I can't get use to the 12.75mm shaft. I'm hoping there is someone out there that feels the same way about their 11.75mm - ish shaft. It has a black collar and is in 95% condition. Will send pics. text Jarod 9726725499

I have an OB1+ shaft in great condition that is 12.75mm. I just can’t get use to a thicker shaft. Let me know if you have an OB2 or anything with a 11.75 or 12mm you’d like to trade. Predator Uniloc joint only.

Personally, the one I played with was too rough between my fingers. I shot okay with it but couldn't get over the texture. I'm a habitual shaft sander (if ya know what I mean lol) so maybe I'm just bias. However, I like my $27 chalk... and I buy WAY more cues than one can use. So I'm a...

I used a guy that does the best pool halls in my area and travels all around Texas. He charged a premium and corrected a lot of issues with my original hackjob install, but I found out later that he left crusty glue spots on top of all the rails. It's very hard to find a really professional...

I actually like the 8ft option. My league plays on 8ft Olhausens, but Cities and Vegas are all 7ft Valley. I personally think 8ft tables are a great equalizer to help you play on either 7 or 9 because it's mainly the shot distance that requires adjustment. I also love playing on 7' Diamonds...

Haha. Is this a troll? I don't know anything about bath salts but I remember this dude was awake for 3 days. Why not just smoke some meth like everyone else? Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

Really good advice here. Thanks. The ex pro was out of Louisiana somewhere and I think he owns the pool hall they play out of. Could be wrong. Cant remember the guys name off hand but I'll try to find out. Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

I like to see the wood grain, but lately I've been drooling over this Mezz CJ102. Love this cue... http://jjcue.com/images/CJ102.jpg

My APA 8ball team is going to Vegas for the 3rd time in 6 years or so. 90% of this team have always been younger and wilder than myself. I have a hard enough time getting slightly drunk with them on a Monday night every week, then feeding a baby at 4am and dragging my ass to work the next day...

It had the standard hard schon tip on it. I did decide the soft hit of a meucci was more my style, so now I own 3 meuccis. Lol Sent from my iPhone using AzBilliards Forums

Going Back to Vegas!!! Just qualified for Vegas for the second year in a row. We played our way out of the losers bracket in the City tournament. Last year we finished 33rd in Vegas, so we are shooting for 17th this year. If you're going, look for the 8 Ball Junkies out of Arlington, TX.

So, I'm just curious... Where do you guys draw the line on how much you pay for a playing cue, versus a collected cue? I've personally never bought a cue near the $1000 mark, so when I see $5k price tags on these amazing looking cues from big name cue makers, I wonder..."Who is shooting with...

Dropped the price for quick sale!
