    Becue Leonardo Balance System

    I have 4 of their cues and 7 of their shafts and have not experienced anything like that, I have spoken with Alessandro Bressan many times and they have always been very good to me and even did some custom things for me, I'm going to forward this post to him.

    What does a good stroke feel like?

    Mark Wilson has a video from the Derby City Classic on YouTube that really helped my stroke tremendously, he was Allison Fisher's coach at one time, you will probably find out like I did it's not only your stroke but your whole pre shot routine, I find when I start to cut corners in the entire...

    Taom V10 is the best chalk I've used. If you've got something better tell me what and why.

    My first piece of chalk lasted almost 2 years, that's about a dollar a month or 25 cents a week, I'll call that cheap, I use it because it is cleaner, nothing against other chalk, but in the end if it only costs you 25 cents week......that is cheap......

    Becue Leonardo Balance System

    Mcdermott does have more options for weight bolt placement, I am letting Becue owners know that you can change the balance point in their cues, the amount of change foe me was all that I needed, I have also worked on one for my playing cue that is working very well. I have used it for 3 days...

    Becue Leonardo Balance System

    Becue cues are made of entirely CF, there is no wood anywhere in the cue, it will never warp or rot, everything made of wood changes over time, it's why guitars need to have the set up adjusted usually a couple of times a year, temperature and humidity affect wood but CF can suffer radical...

    Becue Leonardo Balance System

    I have a Becue Natural Born Naked playing cue and a Naked break cue, I bought the Leonardo Weight Balance System for my playing cue a long time ago, recently I started using heavier cues so I bought another one for the break cue, since I only used .50 oz for the playing cue I had extra weight...

    power draw?

    My friend Rod has amazing power draw, at SBE his break stroke speed was clocked at 28mph, mine was clocked at 14mph, that was with an 18.5 oz cue, I now use a 22.5oz cue, am I getting better draw, yes, but I am not getting that spin where the cue ball looks like it is accelerating, I am getting...

    Congress should pass a law

    The only reason I bought the Tungsten set was because of the price, I think I paid about $80 for them, personally I don't care about colors, especially in 8 ball, I understand a little bit more in rotation games but for me in the end I'll call the ball by color if I have to or make sure I'm...

    Moving to a heavy playing cue

    I bought the extension set for my cue to use on 9ft tables, when they arrived I put the shortest one on just to see what it felt like, I had never used extensions before, for me it just felt great, loved the balance of my cue, after about a half hour it became part of my playing cue, I know you...

    Moving to a heavy playing cue

    A heavy cue requires less speed of stroke to achieve the same cue ball speed as a lighter cue, if you don't have good speed of stroke like me then adding weight will help immensely, you will have to adjust your soft touch shots as well, Like any change you will have to see if it works for you.

    Arimith Super Pro pool balls

    I never blamed any equipment, I said they played different, I may have worded it wrong, I am going to make a habit of changing the ball sets I use more often, learning to deal with less than ideal tables and equipment is a good skill to have, being able to adapt quickly will hopefully come with...

    Moving to a heavy playing cue

    I play 8-ball the most because that is what the league plays here but I like 9 ball and straight as well, I think all the games require you to master different skills that will help you in the sport of Billiards

    Moving to a heavy playing cue

    If you know someone who has a 3" extension see if they would let you try it, if it's not for you take it off and try something else, if you end up liking it you won't be wasting your money, there are a lot of people who play with Predator cues.
