    Bulletproof Recoil tips 7 month later

    A LePro tip is not a layered tip, almost all new modern tips are made from layers of animal hide and glue that holds the layers together, I had a Kamui Athlete med tip that only lasted 4 months, the hit changed from a medium hit to a hard hit rather quickly, I'm not picking on Kamui, this has...

    Bulletproof Recoil tips 7 month later

    No, the vault plate can be replaced but is more expensive I thought it was worth a shot and added the acrylic plate, it was only an extra $5 when installing a new tip, I have found no difference in the way it plays, when I got the new Prime II 12.0 shaft it played so well with the stock tip I...

    The vault plate takes the place of a ferrule, you have to remove a little when replacing a tip just like a ferrule, there is a specification for how thin the vault plate can be before you replace it, by adding an acrylic pad you extend the life of the vault plate, I found no degradation in...

    No, I was using the Becue Engage 11.8 shaft for the last 2 years, it's a great shaft, Becue is a technology company so I was not surprised that they came out with a new shaft, I saw a review that made me want to try one, the taper on the Prime II 12.0 shaft just works for me, feels like it was...

    I've had several lessons with Kim Young, and plan on more, I never played with the Prime M, I love the Prime II 12.0, best shaft I've ever owned, I like the Engage 11.8 shaft but I like the Prime II even more, Becue built a custom rear extension for my Natural Born Naked cue for me, they are a...

    On a CF shaft you have a vault plate, that is the clear or white on a Becue cue, the blue is an acrylic pad, and the tip is green, which let's you know it's a hard tip for the Bulletproof Recoil tip, the consistency is what I love about it, plays the same as it did when new, I expect this tip to...

    Cleaning Balls - Machine vs Hand

    I built a pool ball cleaner from an orbital polisher and a harbor freight 5 gallon bucket and use microfiber bonnets, it cost about $50, you can get videos on YouTube on how to do it, took me an hour or so to build, I use the Arimith ball polish and a little rubbing alcohol and they come out...

    Great Outs !!!

    I think it is a great way to learn how to play better patterns if you are not at a pro level, most of the time they make it look easy, definitely not this time.

    Caiden tip and product review

    IMHO the future of cue tips is synthetic tips, I am not against leather tips but like wood you will always have inconsistent results, all natural products will never be exactly alike, animal hide will never grow to the exact same thickness just like all woods have different grain, even from the...

    Billiard Industry needs

    You are saying that the billiard industry is driving CF in billiards because of cost and ease to manufacture, I'm saying that other sports had already started using CF before billiards, and cue manufacturers wanted to be on the cutting edge before someone else beat them to it, just my opinion....

    Billiard Industry needs

    I think players are willing to TRY any thing that might help their game, top money winners are not going to use a product that reduces their ability to win, I know that pro's in many sports endorse products for the money, they don't have to, it's their choice if they do.

    Billiard Industry needs

    CF has become a popular choice for many sports including golf, tennis, auto racing and yes billiards, CF brings alot of advantages over wood and not all CF shafts are created equal, Becue spent years working on how their shafts and cues were made, they were the first company to build a...
