    Plain model cues,$1000-$1500 retail price,who is best custom cuemaker?

    I agree that you could and should be able to ask for specs but you have to listen to your cue maker, he is more experienced and more knowledgeable and his advice will guarantee a better cue. And not all fantasies and desires can be made into a playable cue. Now some might say that they can’t do...

    Plain model cues,$1000-$1500 retail price,who is best custom cuemaker?

    8 points... about 16-17 years ago it was used, some dings at the end of the butt and the shaft joint collar finish was a bit shattered. There is a blemish in the maple forearm that I guess was discovered when turning down so it was priced down. Still a monster player, took the spot as my main...

    My Carmeli

    I got this cue years ago used here on AZB, it has some chips at the bottom near the bumper. The original shaft's joint collar finish looks like it was shuttered (still does) but it plays great. I got at the time a Predator 314-2 custom fitted to it. I has a blemish in the BEM forearm between the...

    I know that, I was wondering about the Viking AC cues, if they are as good as his cues, then these are great players. Here is my AC, back when he made cues to play with and not collect, best hitting cue I ever held, cost me about $600 used if I remember correctly 😄

    I would look into Jerry Olivier I have an old Carmeli 8 points cue that I got cheap years ago here on AZB, it was cheap as it was in user condition with some chips in the finish and there is a small blemish in the BEM forearm, it's a monster of a player, one of my favorite cues ever, used to be...

    WPA vs WNT break format

    I miss Busti big break with the back kick and everything going wild on the table. Good old triangle rack. That was fun 9ball to watch.

    I have an Arthur plane cue, it played really well. I have not touched it for about 15 years, I took it out of the case a few months ago to find out that both the butt and shaft have warped. Not recommended…

    WPA vs WNT break format

    Also, in WNT, the referee warns a player if he think that the break is not hard enough. But this should be measurable and not based on what looks like soft to a referee.

    WPA vs WNT break format

    Soft break brings a predictable outcomes and easy run out. 9ball on the spot and break from the box was supposed make the game more random and harder to run out but the pros cracked this as well, you get less runouts but still the softer the break, the less random the spread, especially that now...

    jump stick question...

    I know of 3 methods: 1. Dart stroke 2. Regular jacked up stroke 3. Side jacked up stroke I feel that the regular jacked up stroke is more accurate for me than the dart stroke. But with a dart stroke I can go higher and jump a shorter distance. The side stroke is a combination of both, it...
