I agree but I love playing with my cue, it just feels like it's made for me, I did play with a house cue a couple of months ago and won 4 or 5 games with it, made me realize how good my cue is for me......

Becue Natural Born Naked 29" butt and Becue Prime II 12.0mm 30"shaft with a 3" extension I leave on all the time, it's my favorite cue because it's the one I play the best with, the butt,shaft and extension are all CF, their cues are engineered to transfer the power of your stroke more...

I think it also matters how long you have been playing, if you have been playing at least 20 years CONTINUALLY you probably are not working on your stroke, I was away from the game for about 10 years and I am just STARTING to feel comfortable with my stroke after 4 years, It’s like night and day...

I find using a CF shaft that any shaft from 11.8mm to 12.5 will play very similar, taper and construction have the most effect on how they play, that's been my experience 😉

Gamblers only want to play people they believe they can beat, their interest is money not becoming a great player

Been using Bulletproof Recoil tips for the last year, tried dozens of different tips, I'm sticking with these

I'm using a Becue Prime II 12.0 shaft and I don't have any reason to try another shaft, it has a super long taper, I haven't measured it but it is visibly noticeable and different than any other shaft I've seen, I have used a 12.4, 11.8 as well and to me the difference is so small in size it's...

I played at Super Billiards Expo a few years ago in the amateur tourney, 2 races to 5, First set I'm up 3-0 and lose 5-3 second set I'm down 3-0 in the second set and come back to win 5-3, and then go on to win the last set, it would have been easy to give up, I have been on the other side as...

I think you have the right take on the article but I would argue that preparing to face adversity during a match is a skill that can and should be learned, some people never quit and fight till they win or lose, a loss doesn't make them doubt themselves, they learn from it while others won't...

To me it's like the guys playing basketball at the schoolyard, no one mistakes them for NBA players, but they still enjoy playing as hard as they can for their skill level, it's not different in any sport, I will never play at a pro level but every year I get a little better, we are playing for...

I also believe this IS a skill !!!! If you keep your mind on the last shot you missed that there is nothing you can do about you can't be focusing on what you CAN do on your next shot, as you play better you will be playing better players who will play great safeties against you, it's not just...

All players miss, so what do you do when you miss? When I miss when playing league I try to solve why I missed, I can usually attribute it to not focusing on delivering the cue in a straight line properly during the shot, trying to change my aim while down on the shot, and thinking about the...

I know it sucks but your opponent is playing with the same crappy balls, don't add negative thoughts to your tournament, think of it like a rainy wet football field, it's not your favorite field to play on but you still have a chance to win, be the best on the crappy field, table, ect.

Unless you are the same height and weight, same arm length, same speed of stroke, stance I'm sure I'm forgetting some things then insert pro using said cue probably won't feel as good to you, think about tips, they all have a preference BEFORE they started using the one they are paid to use...

Playing on a 6ft table with polyester balls is a completely different animal, clusters everywhere, it's rare to get a break and run, and your position better be perfect, I have one at my house, it's the only table that would fit and I still have some shots where the supports get in the way, I...

I wouldn't use talc, it's abrasive, if I run into a humidity problem I think I will pull out the glove, I don't think it will be hard to go back and forth.

I have been using a glove even when I was playing with a wooden shaft, I'm starting year 5 in my comeback and naturally continued glove use until the other night, I stopped to take a "nature" break and only had 3 or 4 balls on the table so I didn't put my glove back on, I really liked the feel...

I have a wrapless and a leather wrap, l am using the wrapless now...

I would love to play on 9ft tables, unfortunately the closest place is 30 miles away and I would not be able to play everyday, most leagues are on bar tables, so the decision is play pool on a bar table or don't play......
