    Can anyone recommend a low power vacuum without any rotary brushes that will be good to use for cleaning my pool table cloth please? Thanks!

    What is the reason behind your collection?

    Haha thanks! I usually start with an idea or vision I can’t get out of my head and then find from the list of cue makers I really like to see who might have the equipment to take on the project. Then once they agree, I completely hand off design decisions and let the pros do their thing.

    What is the reason behind your collection?

    Here is my collection. It's small, but I am proud of it! Starting from the top... My main player in my youth, a McDermott E-F3 Cocobolo with leather wrap I have always been a fan of McDermott cues and promised the first serious cue I own would be from them! My current main player, Mezz...

    Why Doesn’t WPA, Matchroom or BCA Get On The Phones?

    I expressed the same opinion on luxury watch companies being sponsors earlier, just not their clientele. Would have to be a company like Swatch or Casio. Many amateur pool players I met would find Predator or Mezz too expensive, much less a $1-2k watch.

    Why Doesn’t WPA, Matchroom or BCA Get On The Phones?

    Thank you! On top of being an absolute stunner to look at, the Spring Drive is an absolute dominant force in the history of horology.

    Why Doesn’t WPA, Matchroom or BCA Get On The Phones?

    Maybe I am old, but I actually do wear watches still. I got my daily wear, a Seiko SARB33 with a black leather strap, and then my fancy occasion watch, a Grand Seiko Snowflake. There is just something about how all these tiny gears work together to keep time that fascinates me. That said, unless...

    Why Doesn’t WPA, Matchroom or BCA Get On The Phones?

    Until there are more pool tables and halls accessible to kids, that’s not going to happen. Or some government funded program for competitive kids billiards.

    Interesting Predicament

    So I recently received my loaded custom cue from Chris Nitti, which is an absolute beauty that is flawless in every way, shape, and form. More importantly, I love the way it feels when I shoot with it, even more than my Mezz which has been my favorite player the moment I paired it with the...

    Production Cues vs. custom

    You get a production cue if you are looking for a normal player that you aren't afraid to take out and play with. You get a custom cue if you have a specific design and specs in mind that you want for your cue or if you are a collection whore. Each of my customs are based off specific visions or...

    Mezz vs lower end customs

    I have a Mezz EC-7 with an Ignite shaft and enjoy using it compared to all my other custom cues with the exception of my Nitti cue that I got recently. I am unsure what it is about the Nitti, but I enjoy how it feels in my hands and when I hit balls with it a LOT. This actually puts me in an...

    “I beat myself…”

    While I get that people don't like the sentiment behind "I beat myself", I certainly appreciate it a lot more than "My opponent got lucky" which has got to be the most pathetic excuse for losing ever. Unless it's winner breaks and they won a coin flip and then proceeded to just break and run out...
