    HOW WOULD YOU PLAY THIS POSITION?

    This was what he ended up shooting. Interesting choice. I guess the trade off for dodging the red and a tight target in the corner is a very predictable natural english track?

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    Yes, those are of course two very specific examples. General, example: I can't use any (insert general type of cue here) cue, because of how they sound. I don't like carbon fiber cues because they taste funny. Specific, example: I like how my old trusty cue sounds. This cue has a broken joint...

    It goes like this, right?

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    Exactly Roasted Torrified, good god, sounds like something from a snooty Fusion restaurant menu. At that point, just get a CF cue.

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    That's different than what most people here are talking about though. They are talking about the sound of how KW or Ivory sounds, in general. Which is what I find strange. "I don't like the sound of KW/CF/whatever hitting the ball". You said, "Ivory makes a unique sound" Garczar said, "KW...

    That's different than what most people here are talking about though. They are talking about the sound of how KW or Ivory sounds, in general. Which is what I find strange. Right, that's what I would think, but apparently it's a big thing for some people.

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    Yes, seriously. I've asked other people, too, and they said, "What? who cares?". Me, I can't imagine what difference it makes. It can sound like a clown horn Ah-oo-gah when I hit a ball for all I care.

    Personally I'm fine with CF

    A New Pool game...? Yes... Look inside...

    Weren't they supposed to done with the crowdsourcing by now and shipping the balls in June? The televised league matches were just around the corner.

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    Zero. I just never imagined the sound of the cue made any difference. Usually it's pretty noisy to begin with.

    Non-abrasive bridge hand powder?

    Basically spend a lot of time treating the cue and washing your hands like a surgeon or just wear a glove and forget about it.

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    I would never in a million years have guessed the sound a cue makes hitting a ball was such a huge thing for people.

    All day long a spicy scent will be your reward!

    Non-abrasive bridge hand powder?

    Two condoms coated in corn starch and cumin stretched over one another and replaced twice daily should work nicely.

    Probably helps if the player is baked, too, to notice a difference.

    Tyler Styer's extension

    Somehow I've slept on these, wtf. I had a screw in extension, always too much work. I ordered one off Amazon for $20. What a revelation. Goes on or off in two seconds and it works on any cue you have. Like one of those informercials, "You'll throw your bridge away!". It's like when some...

    Really good point, hadn't thought of that.

    Traditional wood shafts making comeback?

    I would say no. Seems like most of the new people that come in are going with CF. There's not really any reason to go with wood at this point. Maybe price but the gulf there is narrowing, too. People that have been playing with wood for a long time are big on the "feel", but if you never...
