cues Can you keep your cues in the house?

thank you Thank you for the reassurance.

G-10 I had a G-10 ferrule combo installed on my Sledgehammer & I'm enjoying it. Others have tried it & been impressed too. Am I in for trouble too?

"careless bastards" at the airport too I had my cues in my hard case inside my luggage & found them banged up with a note from TSA acknowledging that they had searched my luggage.

Black Belt billiards The analogy between various levels of pool skill & the belt promotion system in the martial arts is interesting. However, I am interested in a book which will help me to transfer my martial arts skills to pool. Speed as power, loose muscles until moment of contact...
