    Eliminating Ball in Hand

    Speaking of Ball in Hand....check out Mike seigal's new league. Handicap is crazy but sounds interesting. If your a -1(professional) or 0 you get no ball in hands except on a legit foul. If you are a 1 to a 6 (6 being really bad) you get ball in hand anytime your handicap inn the match except...

    Elephant ear skin wrap

    Ummmm, are the elephants aware this happening? If I were an elephant I would be pretty pissed off!! I think there are other things that are better suited for a cue wrap. Try burlap, it doesn't hurt the elephant as much.

    Break Speed App

    I downloaded it. It is fun to play with for yeah about half an hour. Sometimes I break it out with friends at the bar and the person with the slowest speed has to buy a round. Sadly that was usually me so I put it away after I see the tab!

    Jump cue or jump/break cue?

    I ran into a purpleheart j/b cue made by TNT (i think) its super solid, weighted a bit more in the front and just kills. Ive made 2 eight on the breaks in leauge play using it, never had a eight break prior to that. I swear by it.

    Scruggs on Ebay - Why so Cheap?

    I have a killer TS but sadly i am the only one who knows its a true TS, when i got it i didnt know as much about cues as i do now. When i got it, the butt cap was split wide open on two opposite sides. I liked the feel and hit so it was a keeper. Not knowing the value i had the butt replaced. So...

    Tribute cues

    I get that. But is it the points,wrap,rings together, as in, Bushka would have used in that design? or is it the current artist using one aspect of the original design?

    I thought Earl is pretty much unbeatable on a 10 ft Table?

    speaking of which....what the heck is that spear he uses? im a short guy so a cue like that would help me alot reaching across the bar table. If i try thing of using "the crutch" im doomed anyways.

    Wrap or Crap

    I prefer the classic linen wrap. If the right color matches the cue it just brings out the wood, Ive tried leather wraps and liked it but it just didnt feel the same, especially with sweaty hands. I guess it depends on the leather. Personally i cant do the elephant ear wrap. something is just...
