    Alex Pagulayan going to UK to try pro snooker

    Alex is a great player but I don't think he has any chance of succeding at snooker. The level of the qualifiers is already very high. He might get some result, but I don't think he will do more..

    Alex Pagulayan going to UK to try pro snooker

    the modern snooker tables on the tour are playing slightly easier than the old tables. Probably a mix of slightly more forgiving points of the pockets, new and therefore slippery cloth, very clean balls, etc..

    multilayerd tip similar to elk master

    maintenance and less ( just an observation, I have no scientific evidence of this) power. Seems like with the multilayerd tips I can create more power compared to the elkmaster based on this site de da vinci and the kamui black should be as soft as the elkmaster which is not the case

    multilayerd tip similar to elk master

    Hi as the title says I'm looking for a multilayerd tip ( with all the benefits it brings) similar in softness to an elkmaster. I tried the kamui black, brown, da vinci and they all play a little hard for my taste. I like the soft hit of the elk master. Some advice?

    Da Vinci tip

    I installed it and after just 2 hours of play, I can say it's nowhere near an elkmaster softness. It plays like it's a medium tip.

    Da Vinci tip

    I usually prefer soft tips and I have played for 3 months with an elkmaster and I liked it, but I decided to change it because it needed a lot of manteinance. A friend suggested me to try a Da Vinci tip which is ( based on his opinion and from the hardness chart on pooldawg) very similar in...

    thanks for the replies. I'm currently using an elkmaster tip and I like it but it lasts little time and wanted to try the kamui but looks like it would be too hard for my taste.

    Kamui Black Super Soft

    I'm thinking about putting a Kamui Black SS on my playing cue. I used a kamui black medium for a month but then I decided to took it off because after very little time the tip become very hard to the point it was almost unplayable. I know some players who sand their kamui tips very often and...

    cue weight

    Hi I currently play with an Adam blomdahl cue which weight 18,5oz and I feel it is a little too light for my taste. I played pool with a 21oz cue... I think in a game where you must drive the cueball several rails a heavier cue would work better than a lighter cue, so why the most common weight...
