    Pivot point on a shaft?

    The way i do it is I set up a two foot shot into the corner, with the object ball only about two inches from the pocket, and you are shooting a full ball hit. Line up the shot, pivot for your english, and shoot. If your pivot point is correct, it will result in a stop shot. If it does not...

    how many cues do you own?

    Thank you for the kind words. And I believe I would consider two Szams special, no matter what! I am still at seven cues, but traded the Stacey for a Sugartree fancy sneaky. It was a great move. The cue plays superb, and is a perfect compliment to my Boar. Braden

    What's your shot?

    I will give this a shot. Kick to the side rail with enough speed to get the 2 to the top rail, trying to catch the two thin enough so that the cue also catches the nine after it hits th two. bumping the 9 closer to the 3. Hopefully, the 9 and 3 end up as blockers between the cue and the 2...

    Shane is not better than Earl

    Man this thread ended up off topic. I was enjoying the comments and different points of view about the Shane vs. Earl topic. I learned quite a bit. I think my opinion falls in best with The Renfro, and he most likely said it better than I. I have a fairly extensive knowledge of mental...

    Please Vote for the AZB 2011 Cue of the Year

    I still have not voted. This is a very difficult choice, and the cues are amazing. I have narrowed it to the Thomas Wayne and The Manzino "Tribal Fusion". The absolute beauty of the wood in the Wayne is stunning, and the fact that he enhanced rather than overpower it with the inlays is...

    GUS SZAMBOTI******Hoppe********

    That cue is in my top 5 all time favorite cues, and definitely the best Hoppe cue I have ever seen. That cue should only be witnessed in church, where it can receive the reverence it deserves. Two words: Dangerous Elegance. Braden

    JMW 8pt Wrapless and Sneaky package!! REDUCED!!!

    This may be out of line, but if I were the owner of these two cues, I would not come down another dollar. 2 James White cues for just over 2K? That is much better than fair. This really is a terrible market. I wish I had the extra cash. Good luck with these two beauties, though you...

    AZB Case of the Year 2011

    WINNER!!!!! I am much more of a traditionalist when it comes to cases, but this case absolutely blew me away! The concept, amount of work, and execution are amazing. This case is an absolute work of art. The tooling itself is incredible. I would really love to see this one in person. This...

    Opinion needed regarding tuning up my Schon

    My friend and teammate has about ten nice custom cues, some worth between 3-5k from top tier makers. He shoots with his twenty year old Schon. But, he did alter the cue himself. He recently took the original joint off, and put on a piloted, ivory joint. The cue, in my and pretty much...

    what is the closest similar looks to ivory?

    Bob Dzuricky lives in my neck of the woods. As the gentleman before me posted, he will use old cue balls for joint, and I believe buttcap, material. I have never heard of it for ferrules. Everyone I know that owns a Dzuricky loves their cue, and Bob is a great guy. Also, I know that a lot of...
