    Mezz Wavy Joint

    Hi together, yesterday I had a close look on my Wavy pin of my Axi cue. I was surprised seeing a very unusual shape of the threaded bolt. There's app. in the middle of the flank a line where the thread has some kind of a hog, the flank has a special profile. I think this hog is the main reason...

    Avid shafts/cues from Cuetec?

    I was curious about these new avid cues, and I bought one before ~ 8 weeks. From the first stroke I liked the balance very much, but added some weight, now it is at 19,7 oz, perfect to me. The tip of the shaft was at other cuetec shafts something that I changed always very quickly, these everest...

    Do carbon fiber shafts make the game easier?

    Yes you are right when you state that in the past times many decades back, there were no carbn shafts like today. What I want to say is: The Pros play that kind of stuff where they get sponsoring for. And yes I think that carbon is much more than a small wave, because it is im my eyes prooved...

    Do carbon fiber shafts make the game easier?

    I think that decribes pretty good why amateurs may have e benefit from using LD shafts in comparison to professionals who know how to stroke and aim properly. In my opinion the most important is a relyable stroke in order to hit the white exactly where you intend to hit and exactly with the...

    Do carbon fiber shafts make the game easier?

    I think that most professional player are playing modern LD shaft, because most of these top players have sponsoring contract with the cue brands that want to sell the LD stuff. Look at the level that Strickland, Bustamante, Reyes and all the other older players had, they showed their beste game...

    +/- 3 mm straightness at a pool shaft is totally shit quality! +/- 1 mm is even a bad tolerance window..

    Southwest cues - reasons for their popularity

    Hi together, I'm wondering why southwest cues are such exspensive. In first instance: It's the market, that's clear. But besides the market effects, there must be reasons WHY this market situation is so extreme at southwest. So, what is the difference of southwest, is there anything that makes...

    Cuetec Cynergy 15k

    Did anyone have the chance to play with the entire 15K-cue (15K-butt + 15K-shaft)? I've only heard about and read reviews just from the 15K-shaft played on several non cuetec butts. I'm very curious 'cause I ordered the entire 15K-cue. I hope cuetec designed also the 15K-butt perfectly fitting...

    Cuetec R360 shaft review

    Before a couple of weeks I bougt a new Cuetec cue: Edge with the R360 shaft. I love it! The deflection is on the level of the 314/3 or WX700. The extreme protaper of the R360 gives me the best feeling I ever had with a shaft, especially when I play with a closed bridge. I removed the everest tip...

    Best cue tip for Mezz WX700 ?

    I had the same problem, the WX700 was too crisp and felt a bit strange with high english. I have now on both of my WX700 the Navigator Alpha medium, and they play great, not too hard. Before I had the Ultraskin soft, and it was a LITTLE bit to soft for my feeling, but had also a great feel and...

    The BIG Mezz shaft thread!

    Hi all together, I play the WX700 shaft on my Mezz sneaky pete, and the tip is an Ultraskin soft. I'm playing it now for a couple of months and over the time it felt more and more softer, without mushrooming. Everything is OK with the tip, but just the hardness could a bit harder. I feel very...

    The BIG Mezz shaft thread!

    I recently bought a new mess sneaky pete with new Ex Pro shaft. I'm now looking for a possibility to raise the shaft weight in order to have a bit more forward balance. Does anybody know if the shaft has a thread inside that allows to use a weightbolt? If yes, what Kind of weight bolts? Where...

    Why would someone NOT want an LD shaft???

    Because some of them play with a consistent stroke + effectively ? Maybe some like really big diameters?? LD is boring if it is too extreme. Too extreme LD is too easy to pocket, hard to control + best chance of getting a worse stroke.
