    Another Question? What type of Carom Cue Case do you use, to carry your cue and extra shaft?

    I carry my 3-Cushion cues in a leather soft case similar to yours. Using a soft case, only makes sense since Billiards cues are smaller than pool cues. Cool thread thanks!👍👍👍

    Billy Webb.....probably the last cue Bill built

    It is and it isn’t, what got me thinking about it was all the digging I had to do to find out about Bill Webb. That thread can be a place where friends of the deceased say good buy, and add stories about things that happened during their friendship. I already contacted J2, so he can contact Mike...

    Billy Webb.....probably the last cue Bill built

    Maybe I should try and start a memorial thread for our fallen members. That way, it would be much easier to find out who has passed away instead of having separate threads all across the forum.

    CIT, SIT, Deflection aim adjustments: At the object ball vs at the pocket?

    What I was trying to say is that new players should master all center ball hits before moving on to side spin. Then in the beginning only use half a tip of English and once mastered, then a player can move out to a full tip. Thats the way I was taught, along with lots of stroke training. By the...

    Cue Tip Compression

    I press all my none layered tips in vise for 24 hours. I do it because it causes the tip to bulge at the sides. I am old school, I don’t believe in the nonsense and about layered tips, except for Moori tips their technique is unique and all others are trying to copy them. Like, I said I am old...

    That’s the problem with the current market, and that’s why almost all those cues will not sell. Then, at some point in the future the prices will correct and those who do buy will be stuck with cues that lost their value, kinda sad, but a sucker is born every minute.

    I totally understand my, friend there currently 3-Cues from the Custom Shop listed. I can’t purchase any right now, because of the Ivory. The Korean Government is cracking down on everything coming from the United States, because of Trump’s bullshit Tariffs on South Korean goods. Until, that...

    I grew up outside St. Louis, Missouri and Paul’s shop was located in Linn, Missouri. The owner of the pool room I used to frequent took me out there in 1972 for the first time and Paul gave me a tour of his facility. My, first Huebler was a custom Chessman with two ebony shafts. At that time...

    I browse Ebay for certain Custom cues, today a Huebler from Pauls Custom shows listed. However, it was in bad condition, they came with two shafts this one only had one. The guy was asking almost $3500 for the cue when its value in the current condition was closer too $1500. In the future, I...
