    Deflection question, explain how a stiffer CF shaft has less deflection.

    Do you think Carom wood shafts deflect less than Pool wood shafts? And why or why not.

    Cork wrap opinion?

    True Dat! I always loved the 'Harvey Martin' cues with cork, but the cork He used was a little rough feeling! McD had a 'Fine' texture to the cork! Although, if you were a 'Daily' player 1 wrap a year is about right!

    Cork wrap opinion?

    May I inquire how you obtained the McD C model cue? In 81 I had Jim McD make me a special Carom cue (C-3) with a cork wrap. I loved that cue, set a lot of records with it!

    How are the U.S. 3C org. doing Today????

    In the area that I live, there are no 3C tables for 160 miles North or South. 8 years ago, in a local room they installed a 5'x10' GC1 pool table. I was smart enough to know Not to practice 3C on it with 'Carom' balls, horrible angles. I use the CB, 1 ball and 3 ball. Over a few years I ran...

    Dime vs Nickel tip

    Not following through on the 'same plane the cue started on'! On a Draw shots mediocre players 'Scoop down' too low on the CB.

    The best butt for under $2000

    I've been doing that since 81 with my 'Modified McDermott C3'! I put separated 'Cotton Balls' to fill in the 6"-10" weight bolt hole, this gives the cue 'Less Vibration'! Sometimes if the butt needs a 1/4 oz weight, I put the cotton balls in up to the point I grip the cue 95% of the time. Butt...

    The best butt for under $2000

    It's a very simple Carom cue, Burgandy-stained Birdseye Maple. In 1990 my friend Paul Jones was in OK spoke with John, about me. He'd said He had never built a Carom cue. He called me, I gave John all the specs I prefer over the phone. 3 months later, the cue arrived at my home, the cue came...

    I think You're basing your opinion in World Cups! If He had stayed in the UMB, no one could say how He'd prevail. Just by 'non-conventional' shot selections. Many times, playing just for the hit on the OB with not a lot of concern for speed. By his own admission he only plays position 25% of...
