    Meucci 1 piece cue ---- VALUE???

    Wow, what are the odds, I posted a thread in the main forum a couple days ago trying to find out if anyone had info. I didn't get 1 response. I have the same exact cue, I got it with my table when I bought it. It looks to be in just as good of shape too. Thanks for posting the info you found...

    Affordable way to try a BCM cue. Pics truly do not do these cues justice.

    Which 8 Ball rules for TAR 28?

    There's 121 "supposedly knowledgeable" players that chose open after the break. Face it, you guys are in the minority on this one.

    Which 8 Ball rules for TAR 28?

    Here's something to consider for all the folks that say open after the break is too easy for pros. Efren only B&R 34% of his games in the IPT and we all know he was the best player there was. And that was on a much easier table. If the game is too easy with open after the break why can't pros...

    Which 8 Ball rules for TAR 28?

    I know so was I. They won't even B&R 50%, probably not even the 30% they did in the IPT. I was just showing how some people sound saying it's gonna be a runout fest or they're gonna be running out from everywhere. Statistics show that not even the pros run out as much as people think even with...

    Which 8 Ball rules for TAR 28?

    Did the people that are saying it's gonna be a runout contest not see the stats someone posted earlier from the IPT? Neither one of these guys were running out more than 30% of the time. On a much easier table. With open after the break. Numbers don't lie. It'll be a good match and the better...

    Schmelke, Cue Componets or ?

    No problem, I forgot to mention that if you want a wood they don't stock you can send it to them and they'll build you a blank too.

    Wrap or Crap

    I agree 100% on the classic, classy look of linen. When I picture an old Balabushka or old Brunswick I imagine a linen wrap beauty. I think the wrap on the color of money cue is what I envision when I think of an old classic looking cue.

    Wrap or Crap

    I don't know, I play with wrapless cues because it feels better to me but I don't mind the look of linen. On some cues the right linen can really make it pop. I'm probably in the minority with this but I prefer white with black/ brown speck linen over anything else. Personally though I am a wood...

    Did Meucci make 1 piece cues?

    Hi, I bought a table a while back and it came with a couple dufferins and what I think is a Meucci one piece cue. It has a black circle sticker near the butt with "M Cue" on it and the M is the same M Meucci uses. Also the ferrule is 1 1/4". I'm just curious if I'm right. Anyone know? I'm on my...

    Schmelke, Cue Componets or ?

    Schmelke makes a good blank. I actually got one with some of the best Bocote I've ever seen. You can also custom order them with different wood combos and with the crotch of the points 3 inches higher to accommodate a wrap and still have a good point length. They also make plain Jane butts that...

    Practice Stroke Routine

    Recently I was filming myself playing and I noticed that on almost every shot I take 4 practice strokes. 2 strokes, pause, 2 strokes, pause, shoot. I literally did it on almost every shot except for a couple times when I really had to draw the rock. Those times it was exactly the same too...

    TAR 28: Who Wins? Corey or John???

    I know what you guys meant. I'm saying that John is an amazing player himself and even if Corey does bring his A game it's not a done deal that Corey wins. He's no pushover is what my point was. The man has one of the highest 14.1 runs ever. I just don't see Corey walking all over John like some...

    TAR 28: Who Wins? Corey or John???

    IMO John has a slight edge in the one pocket and the other two games are probably about even. John can play and I think he's gonna surprise all the people saying "if Corey shows up it's a done deal" I honestly think John has the ability to sweep all three sets. It's gonna be a great match for...

    Which 8 Ball rules for TAR 28?

    Open after the break. Why punish a player for making a ball on the break by making him shoot at that set? The beauty of 8 ball to me is the ability to evaluate the table and pick the set you feel more comfortable with. Solids or stripes? That is the question, and it should be like that for the...

    3 Most Likely Cues To Go Up In Value/$?

    I think Bryan Mordt is way underrated as a cue maker. He does excellent work. Uses some of the finest woods. And his fit and finish are flawless. I believe if more people had a chance to see a BCM in person his demand would certainly go up. His cues are half of what some of the other makers are...

    Varner Vs Frost 1pct, 14.1 and 8-Ball

    If this match happens anywhere in Arizona I'm there. This is going to be a match to remember. I like the format and the games chosen. Scott has his work cut out for him. Nick is a hall of famer who can still get it done. Keep us updated once you finalize a date and what not.

    Father & Son POOL PLAYERS

    Jose Parica has a son named Paulo that plays pretty good. I saw him on a pov pool stream and he wasn't bad. Not Jose but he's still young.
