    Bulletproof Tips

    Believe it or not the best tool I've found for the Bulletproof Recoil hard tip is the Sandman shaper, if you just let the weight of the tool, which isn't much by the way, run over the tip starting from the edge of the tip to the center of the tip while spinning the tip for 30 to 45 seconds that...

    Shoot a Million Balls? Give me a break.

    We all see the same thing....we don't, some people can sight down the center of the shaft and the eye tells the brain you cue is straight and it is, some people need to shift their head some for the shaft to be straight, how much? That is what finding your vision center is all about, look at...

    Bulletproof Tips

    7 months into Recoil Hard tip as well, best tip I've ever used, I'm using it on a Becue CF shaft so I don't really hear any unusual noise, my David Tice custom cue had a little tink noise and that was a completely wood cue, to me it just sounds like a good hitting cue.

    Shoot a Million Balls? Give me a break.

    Make sure what you are doing, do it exactly the same every time.....that's kinda what I was doing, I could draw the ball pretty well so my instructor Kim from Dragon Billiards asked me to draw the cueball straight back into the side pocket, everytime I tried I made the shot but the cueball...

    Shoot a Million Balls? Give me a break.

    If someone is practicing 2 hours a day and is making NO progress then they should see a PBIA billiards instructor, I believe vision center is the nastiest flaw in learning billiards, the reason is that when you are lining up a shot, if you are not truly straight you will be imparting english on...

    It has been over 13 yrs. Glad to be back

    That was me 4 years ago, for me it was 10 or 11 years, I didn't pick up a cue once in that time and it was like learning all over again, I did however remember every bad habit I had in the past though, I'm making progress, I took my first lesson from a certified PBIA billiards instructor about a...

    List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

    If SVB wanted to use a different shaft, there would be a line at his door with companies willing to pay him to endorse his new shaft.

    List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

    Your posts had a lot to do with me trying Becue cues, I really appreciate your reviews and observations of their cues, as a returning player who was away from the game for over 10 years there was a lot of new technology in cues, tips, tools, cases ect., every one has different ideas of what a...

    List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

    Becue pays no one to use their cues, I swore when I got back into pool I would never use CF, I am a nobody, no one cares what I use, as the average Joe pool player all I can say is that Becue is a great company and I am fortunate to have done business with them, my Becue is the best hitting...

    I purchased a bulletproof recoil tip (red medium) tip and...

    I've been using the Hard Recoil tip since March 3rd of this year, the best "scuffer" I have found is the Sandman shaper, all you need to do is use only the weight of the tool and drag it across the tip while spinning the shaft for 30 to 45 seconds, I put pictures of the tip 7 months later on...

    List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

    If you don't like CF shafts you shouldn't use them, a CF shaft will not make you play better, that doesn't mean CF shafts are bad, my whole cue is CF, it works for me, I owned some great wood shafts, after years of use the way they played changed, also the 2 shafts I owned played slightly...

    JB 2x3 Rugged Leather Hybrid Gonzo Diver Case

    Very cool, I had JB cases do a little custom 3x5 case for me, not as exotic as yours but fits my needs perfectly, you won't find a case that protects your cues better, to me that's the most important part.

    List of pro players who stick to wood as their playing shaft

    There is no response to be made except you can't fix stupid......golf clubs used to be made of wood, a lot of pro's now use CF, Tennis rackets used to be made of wood also now a lot of pro's use CF, there is no way CF shafts could be good for billiards......
