    New Tip Job....What Say Ye?

    Back up your camera. I believe it is having problem focusing because it is too close to the cue tip. Take it farther back so it can focus and crop it later.

    9 ball rules question

    Lets say for the sake of argument that you are playing call pocket 9ball. If that were the case and you sink a ball on a safety shot your opponent gets the option to take the table or give it back. At least that is how it works in 10ball (where call pocket is the norm).....

    9 ball rules question

    You can call safe until your face is blue but as soon as you make a legal shot and a ball drops you must continue shooting.

    "Raising the Hustler" ((UNOFFICIAL TRAILER))

    I dont mean to sound like a negative nancy but I cant stand the handheld cellphone video quality. The interesting parts are when the players are talking but the actual pool playing and random shots of pros is terrible.

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    A lot of production cues look exactly the same as hundreds/thousands of other cues. A picture is no good unless the cue has something unique to identify it. The chip will do nothing for a cue that is sitting in storage. That isn't the purpose. The purpose is if the cue surfaces and is scanned...

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    A lot of cues look exactly like other cues. The chip would be proof the cue belongs to you. For example, you go on CL and see somebody selling your cue. You inform the cops and they meet the person. He claims the cue belongs to him. At that point the value of the chip is substancial because you...

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    If your cue turns up at a flea market you call the police. If the person selling it is in possesion of stolen goods they must return it to the owner. There is no false sense of security with this thing unless you are a complete dumb dumb. Seriously it won't stop somebody from stealing your...

    If it doesn't end up in a pawn shop it is likely the cue will be sold on craigs list. In that case you case watch craigs list for somebody trying to sell it. If they do you can prove it is yours with the chip.

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    This is from the link: "If it is found, local authorities are notified to obtain the merchandise to be scanned and positively ID’d as yours using one of 400,000 standard pet scanners available nationwide. If a scanner is not available one will be shipped directly from SNAGG."

    This begs the question; where is Pechauer installing the chip?

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    If there was no money it in Pechauer wouldn't bother. Heck, after I read this Pechauer shot up towards the top of my list of production cues that I would consider purchasing. Whatever the case, it is nice to see a cue maker step up to the plate and implement this technology. Hopefully it...

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    I would assume Pechauer is putting it someplace in the cue where is cannot be removed. Going with that logic it may be difficult to install the chip on a cue that is already complete. Hopefully this technology goes mainstream with cue building. For now it appears only Pechauer cues have it...

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    Not sure. I imagine each chip has a unique key and if the cue is stolen it can be searched for against a database. Also, if your stolen cue shows up in a pawn shop you could prove it belongs to you.

    Apa ban ??

    There could be 100 reasons they were banned. Actually if they weren't a SL7 it could be they were sandbagging. With the information you have presented there is no way we can answer your question. Ask the LO.

    Finally somebody developed a microchip for cues

    https://pechauer.com/snagg-microchip It is about time! I have been thinking about something like this for awhile now. Pechauer has done it. Trackable chips installed in cues. I will paste the information below. Considered me interested. The SNAGG microchip is permanently installed in your cue...
