    Bubinga Cue

    That is stunning. I am always in awe of people with artistic talent. Even more when it is used to make a practical item pretty. One of the reasons i love pool cues.

    Should we start a petition to change the 5 ball back to orange again?

    I can start the petition on change.org. No problem there. What i need is a write up on what we are petitioning, who we are petitioning against. Was there ever a reason given on changing the ball color ? What events have the new colors been used in ? What reasons do we have to want the...

    What is a good way for a low-level player to handle unwanted advice?

    My buddy always insists on giving advice. He is a good shot, better shot than me, so he think it is helpful. He does it with others as well and gets sad when people ignore his advice. When i am not in the mood for i just tell him i am not interested in learning that day. We always try to...

    I don't think new cloth is necessarily good for pro tournaments.

    What do you mean mentally ?

    Break-n-Run pot ??

    Our league format is similar. One attempt, No option to quit, but you get the money per ball you sink no matter what. Bnr is not required, just potting a ball. Break dry, all of it transferred to the next week. End of session, Pot is completely depleted with nothing transferred to the next...

    Ordering a new cue from a known cue maker. Should you order two wood shafts made or obtain one CF shaft?

    @Bavafongoul Ed has been doing a cored butt with cf, and cf shafts. He is doing matching ringwork on his cf shafts. A build like that sounds incredible to me. But i was only using Ed as an example. I am not that interested mixing and matching butts and shafts. One of the key reasons i...

    Ordering a new cue from a known cue maker. Should you order two wood shafts made or obtain one CF shaft?

    I think the majority of us who go to a cue maker know what we want. I doubt the latest trend affects them much. We are captive audience. That said there are some offering cf shafts. I would love a prewitt built with cf in mind. It os the only build i would consider with cf right now.

    Conceding a game.

    It is common in bar leagues. I played in bar leagues etc for years but after moving to bca and finding a good hall i have not even stepped foot in those bars. I was there for pool, and i once found out how much better/different serious halls are, it was like night and day. Now those bar...

    How does a cue play?

    Very much this for me. I can shoot decently enough with anything, but to be on, i need something with a stiffer hit and more deflection. I am so use to shooting with solid maple, low deflection throws me off target.

    how are ya'll doing in league ?

    I play with a guy who is a good shot but he insists on using draw 95% of the time. Gives up alot of games because of it. My wife likes to use draw all the time. I set her up with 4 balls one diamond from each corner on the rail and have her start on a long rail to run all 4. Forces a follow...

    Do tighter pockets favor the shotmaker?

    Or your thighs are too big.

    C/F shaft and what not to do!

    I was planning on using 400 grit, but that biscuit flour is hell on the lungs. There are at least 3 ways to apply finish to those biscuits. Caramelized custard is what i leaning towards. Extra cinnamon. You have me thinking about corn bread now. I may have to do a batch.
