    Predator C4+

    It's a 4 piece core construction. Most cues are going to be cored, especially with ebony I believe, but these days the vast majority of cues are built with a cored construction. Predator just uses a 4 piece core setup and branded it C4. The Blak cues are not spliced, it'd be cored ebony...

    problem with mental side of game

    I also think this needed to be said and it was said in a nice way. But I will add that knowing or even thinking you know what should be done but not having the table time and stroke to back it up can cause problems. You try to do too much, try to play too perfect position when you don't have...

    SVB Banned from Mosconi Cup

    This is kinda my take. I love the Mosconi Cup, it's a fun four days of very professionally produced pool with some fun rivalry and it's entertaining to watch. I usually take time off work each year just to watch it. But it's not what I'd consider "real" tournament pool. SVB is an amazing...

    I said no to the Scruggs

    Lets see some pics of that Runde! Love me a good Runde cue, have had a few over the years and all have hit great. Currently just one one simple one I customer ordered for myself back in 2015.

    My JB History Case

    Gorgeous case! So clean and classy. I've seen a few of those from JB over the years and it's probably my favorite case design of his. Congrats!

    What's the thoughts on this case?

    My thoughts are damn that is nice! Looks good and probably very few unused Justis cases around these days. Is it yours or one you're looking to pick up?

    I agree with this! I can definitely hit the spot on the CB more consistently when looking at it...but I definitely make more shots looking at OB last during the shot.

    If you could build your dream room that actually has a chance to stay in business…

    Some of the nicer and seemingly more successful rooms around here seem to be at least 50% bar/restaurant and not relying just on the pool player population. I think that is likely a key to success these days. I think a straight pool room that doesn't offer much else makes for a challenging...

    If you could build your dream room that actually has a chance to stay in business…

    I think you forgot about the "chance to stay in business" part. I just don't see that type of room making money. No music or cell phones especially is pretty...harsh

    DigiBall Passaround Reviews

    I can't speak for @nataddrho but I would guess just so that shots like that one are still within the labelled area and not falling out in a blank zone. That shot definitely felt like it was real close to the limit of what I could do without miscuing, it took me a couple tries to get one that...

    Playing Cue to Break/Jump Cue

    What is the tip diameter of the cue? If it’s 12.75 or larger I’d suggest throwing a good break tip on there and making it your break cue and then get a dedicated jump cue. A proper jump cue is usually much better than a jump/break in my experience. If it’s smaller than that or for whatever...

    'Old School Pool' event...??

    I'd watch that. Pretty sure Simonis was around when I started playing, at least seriously, but I'd still be interested in watching. I have a strong appreciation for the modern tech, carbon shafts, screw on extensions, etc. But also have a lot of love for a good classic wood cue, traditional...

    Krause/Tyler 32:32 Minute Mark

    I am confused. Says 32:32 but video starts at 39:48. Title says Krause/Tyler but this appears to be Krause/Skyler. Is it the 4-8 combo he scratches on that you're asking about?

    Fingering the one ball

    My experience with this has just been getting the head ball to be tight to the rack. I especially had problems with this with the old Diamand wood racks, which I actually love, but when it was humid the lacquer finish could be a little sticky and if you had a tight rack up to the head ball and...
