    Does everyone here use a jump cue?

    I've heard that girls are usually more impressed with longer sticks, but are fine if you really know how to use your equipment. I have a jump cue in my case but I'll usually kick. I think that full cue should be the rule, however things are what they are. I need to work on jumping and have some...

    Do you have a 'get sober quickly' trick/ritual?

    If you know you're going to drink, be sure to eat something. Your digestive system keeps the intake in your stomach and the alcohol gets absorbed slowly. When people drink on an empty stomach they get drunk faster because the alcohol goes quickly to the small intestine and more easily into the...

    Turning Stone - rip off

    Donate the entry fees to charity. This maintains the integrity of the system while removing the appearance of impropriety. Takes minutes online and can be done "in honor of" the unavailable entrant.

    Eclipse..............

    I grew up there and still have family in Amityville. I've been in the house, even the top floor with the windows. They were my schoolmates and friends. It was a huge shock and very sad.

    Joss warranty?

    The "lifetime" warranty is a marketing tool, and not the reason I would buy a particular cue. I suppose it comes in handy for some at times. I have a Joss merry widow and wouldn't hesitate to buy another Joss cue. A Hyundai has a longer warranty than any other make including Acura, Lexus...

    Dominant eye relative to cue sight line

    I have one made for darts that is collecting dust somewhere. It didn't help me, other than to let me know that I was already aligned correctly.

    Anyone else not like Ebony cues?

    Cocobolo is probably my favorite, but I do have this Omen as well. I like the way his cues look and play.
