Very nice cue,but that does not look like a stainless steel joint. I would say its a piloted wood joint, unless I am missing something. But, it is a beauty, and at a good price. Good luck!! Braden

Did you read my "I need to vent!!" thread? I know how you are feeling. I would actually rather be totally off on any given day, than to be playing good and lose because of something stupid. In other words, I would rather lose do to poor execution than to making bad choices. Concentrate on...

I find this interesting. From my experience, I get more cut induced throw(CIT) from draw. I continually undercut shots where I use a soft draw shot. I find a hard, follow with inside to be the toughest for me, and for a long time I would avoid playing position for that type of shot. I have...

I really appreciate all the advice, and the understanding. And, the other screw up stories do ease some of the pain. At least this particular game did not mean anything. If this had been the state tournament, I would have been inconsoleable. My team means a great deal to me. We have only...

I think I will start by taking two weeks off, and then quit!!;) Braden

Misery loves company!! I needed some comiseration. Thanks.:thumbup: And thanks to the others for the words. I can, and will let this go. I just really needed to get it off my chest. Maybe I will go back to blaming everything, but myself. "It rolled out", or "stupid dead rail", or "why...

When it comes to pool, and the IPT, Trudeau may have had good intentions. But, he certainly made his riches being nothing other than a con man. He toted that idiotic book as some sort of revelation for healing people, acting as if all of western medicine was some sort of conspiracy. And many...

Sorry, but I need to get this out because it is eating at me. Last night in my league, I sold out in my last game. Playing 8 ball, my opponent was on the 8 ball and missed a very hard shot. I had 5 low balls left. I could have run out, and looking back probably should have. Instead, I tried...

I spent 6 years of my youth growing up in the Burgh, but when I moved 100 miles north-east, I couldn't make the "jag-off" stick up here! I'm still pissed about it. "Yins" damn near got me my ass handed to me!:thumbup: Braden

For the reason of the break, I think a tight bar box can be just as tough as a 9 footer. Longer shots are tough, but in games like 8 ball, when it is a bad break, the clusters also make it tough. This is all just my own personal opinion. I am anxious to see how others reply. Good thread. I...

Wow is that a sharp cue. I am really shocked it is still here. That is a TON of cue for the money! I really like Bob's work. Braden

Hee-Hee!! Green for that one! Braden

He makes the nicest merry widows, IMO. I love the simple elegance of those cues. Congrats, and thanks for sharing the pics! Braden

I love that cue. I almost bought it for my daughter, but since the time had already been that long, I wasn't sure when I would get it. I am very happy it went to a great owner, and I am glad your wife likes it. As always, your taste is impeccable, sir. But, your still a cue hog!!;) Congrats...

This is the advice I will try to utilize the most!:thumbup: Thanks my friend. Braden

Thanks guys, all of you, for the advice. That really shocks me that the cue is 12 years old. It looks brand-new. Braden

Very nice looking cue Chris. I have never hit a Joey, but I have heard good things about them. Birthday? I am guessing 25?;) Braden<--------will be jealous if his guess hits the mark!

I have read some very good answers here. JB summed it up pretty well. I have been a longtime sports fan, and growing up I had a very serious idol: Jordan. I have never witnessed a competitor I thought was betther than MJ, in any sport. If you ask him what made him the best, he would say(I...

Chris, I am thinking about having a bumperless hoppe built. How do you best protect against chipping the butt? I realize just being uber careful helps, I am just wondering if their are any other tips. I could have pm'ed this, but I was drooling again over this amazing cue, and figured I would...
