Several years ago The Stones stopped here in Memphis and my friend lent his snooker table for them, and when they were done they were supposed to autograph the cloth, but when he got the table back no cloth or autographs but the table was fine.

Ill take one check your pms

my stuff Currently I shoot with a Judd (ebony hi-run Dufferin conversion ivory joint) In the closet: 2004 Mottey, Brand new Omen, old Billy Hoyt, and break with a solid black Jacoby

Ive heard this From what I understand they dont core any of their woods and maybe over time this may lead to warping of butts. Also Ive talked to cuemakers and Ive heard that weather effects cue and others say it doesnt. Who knows for sure?

you guys are crazy! Determining wether or not a cuemaker is hot or not is totally subjective. Ive never met a cuemaker that didnt sell everything he made. One more thing call one of these not hot cuemakers and see if you can get a cue in a month or two, not gonna happen.

I saw this... I saw this episode of Law and Order once where (the late) Jerry Orbach was questioning a guy in a pool hall and took his cue and ran the table. He was known to be a fan and a good player. One more trivial thing I was watching the Cowboy Bebop the movie (anime series) and there...

Here in Memphis I dont know anyone who uses a snooker cue to play golf, snooker whatever and they do OK. But I wouldnt recommend a skinny shaft for a novice player, also what the heck is potting?

go for the Joss Joss is a great entry level cue. Dont sweat the 13.25 because between that and 13 you can barely tell a difference. FYI with the thicker shaft its easier to pocket balls, because the skinnier the shaft the more you have to pinpoint your aim. Also, Im not certain but I dont...

Im just curious that when you look at cues on dealers websites they have certain cues that under the price they say ASK or PRICE ON REQUEST. I mean they have no problem showing a real nice cue with price tag over 5000 but when it comes to cues like SW, Boti, Bushka, Searing, Gina they dont want...

this is me Me and my pool game have something in common...we could both be better

I hear ya Im with you Tons o Fun. People here forget this is like a pool hall in the sense that there is a mixture of different characters, opinions, and egos. Because if you cant laugh at yourself while you are laughing at someone else then whats the point? Sometimes people in this place...

try this If you are hungry I recommend the Rio buffet inside the Rio casino, its $15 for lunch $23 for dinner. Its the best buffet in Vegas

opinions on Mottey Ive had my Mottey for over a year, it took me 7 months to get it. It has 3/8 x 10 ivory joint. I shot with it for about 6 months and just like one of the other guys said it was a bit mushy. Remember Paul uses a 9-10in straight taper so its gonna be soft. Now I suppose...

Ive shot with several layered tips and hated them all. Imo you cant go wrong with a triangle cut down real small.

Im leaving Thursday night, Ill be there till Monday for 9 ball. Just curious, does everyone ship their cues out there or do they trust them on the plane. Here in Memphis we know people through FedEx so we get a hook up.

hope this helps OK Scott here are my cases: Justis 3x6 32 1/2 x 6 x 4 1/2 Its George 2x4 33 x 4 3/4 x 2 3/8 Its George 1x2 33 x 3 3/8 x 2 1/8 Porper 1x1 32 x 3 x 2 1/4 Now these numbers are only the exterior length and width, I didnt measure the pockets but will if you like. I would...

Chas Clements makes those, you can find them on his site. But be forwarned he charges 1200 for his, granted they have a lot of tooling but that is still 1200 for a soft case. I would imagine the other case makers (Justis, Whitten, Swift, etc) could make one considering they have the means but...

try this I would recommend you buy a jump cue because if you use one of your playing shafts you may not get the reaction you are looking for because your shaft taper may not be stiff enough to jump easily. I use an el cheapo Lucasi jump cue. It has a real thick taper and its fairly easy to...

duh I would have thought that the speed the person hit the rack versus the speed all the balls flying in the pocket would have gave it away. Just my observation

Thats a good question. Ive seen a lot of these box cues around the internet and was surprised at the price. I also like that style, so currently Bill McDaniel is making one for me. Its going to be nothing but ebony and ivory with veneered boxes of ivory and a total of about 30 inlays. Heres...
