Axio - I sent you a PM, my shaft arrived but it has the wrong threads, it is the wrong length and the joint is piloted rather than flat faced. Please get back to me.

Thanks for the replies, everyone. I'm going to practice some of these methods and report back in a week or two.

First off, this is not an aiming thread. I'm interested in visualizing the point of aim on the OB after using whatever aiming system. So when you are down in your stance, ready to pull the trigger, do you see a ghost ball?....vertical line on the OB?.....a point on the perimeter of the...

Any taller players out there want to experiment with a longer butt?

I ask the question because I am curious what type of ball return method the local league tables use. These are high traffic tables and they get replaced periodically. Is it safe to assume that a Valey table newer than say 5-10 years uses the metal shell? Or does Valley still manufacture...

Is a valley cue ball overweight?, oversized?, does it contain a magnet?

1 3/16" diameter at the butt. I should also mention that the weight is 16.2 oz

Thanks for the input Maniac. Yes, with the 30" OB2 shaft, the balance of this cue feels great.

Bump to the top.

I am selling my 31" Roger Long Butt. I shot with this and a 30" OB2 shaft(not for sale) over the last year and it made for a nice combination. Combine this with your favorite 30" LD shaft, and it ends up being an affordable 61" cue for those that need a cue that is longer than the typical 58"...

That and Porper makes a 35" 2X4 case for $100. I just bought one for when my 34" butt is done.

This is kind of what I was getting at with my post.....I have a difficult time visualizing points of aim along the vertical axis of the cue ball. It's hard for me to, for example, visualize 1/8 tip or 1/4 tip below center on a white sphere. For some people this may come more naturally, but I...

Interesting, I'll give it a try.

Like I indicated in the original post, to the best of my knowledge, my speed is fairly consistant - the cue ball travels roughly the same distance when shooting multiple shots. My intuition tells me that the vertical hit on the cue ball is off. I will try out your recomendations at my next...

Thanks Neil, The OB is a fair distance away from the pocket (not much room to cheat the pocket). The inconsistency in the CB path seems to originate from either speed or the vertical hit on the CB.

Recently, I've been practicing stun shots. I'll set up a marked shot on the table.....mark the point on the rail where the tangent line hits.....then shoot the same shot multiple times trying to achieve a perfect 90 deg stun shot. Then I'll change it up a little......change the shot angle...
