I kind of like the overall team approach myself. Let me talk to the wife about it tonight, but I'm thinking that I can take a good piece of it without too much of a problem. Lenny, you should think about what type of return you are offering, if any is even realistic, just in case she does...

The bar table championships ???? BCA event ? Lenny, please send me more particulars. tim

What tournament in Reno ?

If you want something new, try a Lucasi. If you get one with the hybrid shaft, its got similar technology to the predator. Even made in the same factory. tim

Sorry Mark, had to post this. Too funny. For all of you who don't know Mark (8ballrat), he's one of our finest. I was kevetching about growing older and how difficult it was to find a dang FedEx/Kinko's to send out a shaft to him from. You always make fun of your parents having trouble...

I love the old one you have in your avatar! tim

First of all, let me say that its wonderful to have the great George Fels posting here. Concerning cues, I have a couple of $1K players myself. Tough to take them out of the case. Too much to lose. I just picked up a Lucasi Hybrid and put a smart shaft on it. Hits as good as any cue I've...

Thanks. That brings up another question, though. If a ferrule has small cracks that don't extend the length of the ferrule, do you play it until it goes south ? Or just have it replaced? tim

Hi guys and gals. Anyone ever have a univeral smart shaft with a cracked ferrule ? I've got one that has a bunch of cracks starting from the tip side. This is the LD model. Any info would certainly be appreciated. thanks in advance, tim

Well, thank you both very much for the snub. If this is how NJ vendors react to someone trying to be helpful, I'll think twice about buying from NJ businesses! tim:banghead:

I would try Joe Nielsen at Nielsen's Billiards....an ebay store. Nice guy. Good place. tim

Hey, just because there hasn't been a problem before doesn't mean there isn't one at some point. Return, purchaser paying for shipping and/or fees associated with paypal, etc., should be a standard policy. That way, no one gets hurt and both parties are protected. If that doesn't work, then...

Great cuemaker, nice coke, but yes, $1700 is a bit high. A $700 premium over the average BEM price isn't what you would expect, especially in this cue market. Still, a very, very nice cue. tim

it looks pretty dang decent to me. Not that I don't love my soft 4x8, but there are times I want to bring three good cues with me and my break cue. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. tim

Hi. I've asked this question before, but since you are doing work for them, what exactly is a Hi pro shaft ? I've got a Joss from the Providence tour event a couple of years ago, but I'll have to say that the stock shafts aren't exactly like predators. If you've got a great stroke, they aren't...

What is the weight on the Hybrid ? Its got a pie shaft also, I'd imagine. I'm interested in the shaft, but just curious. Are you looking for something else or just getting out? thanks, tim

Mark I have a couple with a black with a silver ring. One is a meucci red dot, the other a laminated shaft with a low deflection ferrule. Personally, I'd take the laminate. I owe you one, so as soon as I have time (we're closing the books this month...), I'll ship it out to you if you would...

Charlie My recommendation is this. Wait until the Scruggs comes in. Play with it for a month or so. If it plays well, then take a nail and scratch the butt a bunch of places and bust the butt in half across the floor. After that success, play with the thing for the rest of your life. Retip...

I'm not nuts about any of the choices so far, especially if you wanted it before you die. But that's all personal preference. I don't know what you are thinking about, but if it were me, I'd be on the phone with Mike Webb. I bought a cue from him recently and listened to all of the yadeda...

Could,yes, but what business is going to have sucess rotating over 100 8ft tables into bars ??? I'm thinking that has got to be the deal as it would likely be too expensive to purchase and store a 100 of them for a year. tim
