Great stories! Reading these reminded me of one. I was playing a friend of mine at 8 ball and he had a tough cut on the 8 and bent down to find out where the contact point was on the 8. He lined his cue up behind the 8 pointing at the pocket. The look on his face was classic as he fired the...

At last weeks 9 ball tournament I was playing a guy that was better than me and I got ball in hand. When I went up to shoot I lined up on the 4 and saw the 6 was tied up with the 9. I shot in the 4 and got perfect position on the 6 for a safety. I planted the cueball firmly behind the 9 as I hit...

The Case... A review. BTW Before I write this I do want to mention BeBop is a very good ebayer. Great communication and timely shipping. And yea I am not affilliated or know him from Adam so please don't think this is an attempt at spam. Ok so the case arrived yesterday and I wanted to do a...

Ok I watched it again and agree that is a different tip. He does not mention that he has more work to do on the shaft. If he is just talking about the tip then that would explain why he said "... and your done" @ 3:45. I am not a cue repair man so I have a couple of questions. 1) If you were...

Sigh, Dammit, I guess I will just have to be patient and wait for mine to show up.

It is not a knock... I am just saying if my tip looked like the one in the video I would be upset. Do you agree that the tip @ 3:23 in the video is UUUUUUGLY??? Not knocking just stating fact. If you like a shoulder on your shaft so be it. If it was a video editing blunder then that is all I am...

Don't take it wrong I just noticed that he used 400 then the next scene there is an obvious lip on the shaft. Whether or not a professional did it or what he used to make it look that way makes no difference. I guess the real problem here is editing. If there was more work to be done he should...

What are the quality of the zippers and latches? Do the tubes leave any marks on your cues? Biggest question can you put the butts in either way? Thanks for the input. JV

Yes I know it was not an ivory ferrule. That statement in my post was as though someone did it to my cue. (sorry I didn't set the scenario better). I have seen lower grade sand paper on ferrules before and yes they look great until they get chalk on them then they look like brushed steel. I...

I would kill them!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1rMR6SiGzo&feature=related You used what grit sand paper on my ivory ferrule??? Check out around 3:19 in the video... Makes me sick to see how it looks when he's done. JV

I just ordered one of these they are the Imperial 15-415 leather case. Any have a review of one? http://cgi.ebay.com/Leather-2-X-4-Self-Stand-Pool-Cue-Stick-Case-FREE-SHIP_W0QQitemZ250365845586QQcmdZViewItem Thanks

Yup 10 inlays in each ring and there are 7 rings. Not to mention the joint. (yes, I know the joint is not an inlay) That is a hell of a cue you got there! Beautiful!

Best purchase ever! Wow, I love the way it hits! It has an unusual feel. It is not a solid hit. It has more of a soft thunk (if you can picture that) Then there is a slight vibration in the cue. Not an uncomfortable rattle but a confident sense of cobntact with the cue ball. The action that...

Uhhh, yea... I am a guy and unlike most men in a pool hall, not looking to get some. If I offer advice it is because I thought that it might help. But before I offer I ask if they mind if I point something out. If someone tells me "hey did you know that you have a chicken wing when you stroke?"...

They retail for 1700

Wow I didn't think Hal Houle made it out any more ;P Take all advice! Any that you can. There is a good chance that there is a nugget of gold in that hill of dirt. If you shut someone up before they give it too you then you will have lost it. Ignore the stuff that doesn't work for you and be...

Oops, Here is a pic...

I just bought my new cue from Charles and I have got to say I have never felt or seen anything like this before! A while back I made the comment that custom cue makers charge too much for there wares. I retract that statement. This thing is awesome! It is cocobolo with an alfezia burl grip...

Post or PM me what you got... Looking for just about any custom. Thanks
