I'm surprised that I couldn't find this anywhere. What are the cut angles for all the main fractional aiming points: 1/8 = 61 degrees 1/4 = 49 degrees 3/8 = 39 degrees 1/2 = 30 degrees 5/8 = 22 degrees 3/4 = 15 degrees 7/8 = 7 degrees I tried using Dr. Dave's formulas here: fraction = 1...

Who made the shafts?

I would also note that you need to find your way to the For Sale forum when you list your cue. This ain't it.

Get rid of the whole cue and start over.

Today, I was thinking about this very topic.... because your little gadget always says my tip goes to the right at impact. I've tried to correct it, but with little success. Today, I was driving on the freeway, and I began ruminating, "If the tip is going to the right at impact, the butt must...

To see how much you are rolling your cue, you can put a piece of blue painters tape on your ferrule (e.g. cut a small piece of tape into a little triangle/arrow). When you get down on the shot, twirl the cue until the tape is directly on top. After you hit a shot, freeze your follow through...

Do you really think people buy $4k cues because they think they will play better with them than $500 cues? A thought experiment: maybe a person who buys a $4k cue likes the way the cue looks better than a $500 cue, and it gives them joy every time they look at the cue and play with it. In...

So, what you are saying is... 1. It's the Indian not the arrow. 2. It's the time not the watch. ??????

...you are still unable to provide a time stamped link with your posts.

Or, you can buy a brand new Avid butt with sharp points and a low deflection shaft for $289.

3 hours/day x 3 times/week x 4 weeks = 36 hours/month $100/36 hours = $2.77/hr

So the deal on break cues is this: heavier is not necessarily better. You may think that with a heavier cue you can hit the cue ball harder. Not so fast. With a lighter cue, you can get the cue moving faster. The question is: does the speed of a lighter cue allow you to hit the cue ball with...

I don't see a contradiction. The poster was saying that FedEx is expensive, for example even with his 30% discount it still cost $130/package.

It doesn't sound like you use Shipsurance. One reason I like Pirateship is that they have their own package insurance called Shipsurance, and when you buy it, UPS/USPS cannot see that the package is insured. In the past, Jay Helfert has posted that he doesn't insure packages because he is...

My confusion about the diagram must be more fundamental because I don't know how that statement is relevant. Suppose the OB's position was moved up and to the left along the connecting tangent, say 3". Hitting along the connecting tangent would sink the OB at its new location into the same...

Sorry, no discouragement here. I've never lost a cue, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't be interested in a tracking device.

I don't understand that shot. As diagramed, aren't you going to just miss the OB, which I assume is the upper ball? To hit the OB, you have to aim into the OB at least a little, and how much you tick the OB is just feel isn't it?

Players from Linwood University, where Mark Wilson coached, won the collegiate championship the last six years it was held. Landon Shuffett won it two years in a row for Linwood University. But, it looks like the big stick played a decade earlier: Lars Vardaman won it three years in a row for...
