There are 3 jump stroke styles. Under hand, Dart, and Side arm. Using only Under hand and dart you can cover pretty much all jump situations. In this case there is no need to ever use or learn Side arm jumps. However, you would need to stay in practice with 2 different styles of jump strokes...

Predator cues are 100% made in the USA. Revo is made by Predator.

You brought up a good point. But if both people or one ends up playing in a league and admits to it. I feel like the next step would to be look up that players speed, and if only 1 gets looked up than that person would be at a handicapping disadvantage.

Thanks! This is exactly the type of thing I'm trying to figure out. I just hope I don't get laughed at suggesting a race to 4 for $10. BTW, I know a lot of people don't like APA rules. Is there a certain set of standardized rules most people like to shoot with? BCA, NAPA, TAP, WPA? I don't...

If you play for money... What are the average size bets you are using? How much do you bet per game? How much do you bet per race? (# games in race?) Are you playing 8 or 9 ball? How much do you bet to start if your not sure about your opponents speed? How much money do you put in your wallet...

Any beer or drugs at the scene of these crimes? Slip strokes while curling your wrist counter clockwise?

Actually 7 months doesn't sound like very long. I would be interested in an update after 1 year and each year after if you stay with bulletproof for that long. Leather tips don't go bad. They only wear out. I had a cue that I didn't play with much. The Lepro tip on it was 20 years old and still...

I understand now. Is that how Becue markets and suggests their vault plate to be used? Predator vault plates are less than 2mm. They tell you to leave a thousandths of an inch of the old tip and not to cut into the vault plate.

The rich would get richer... and live in white houses.

Seems like you would want to do the opposite. I don't think they should be taking off that much of the plate unless it's a hand job by eye. Anyway, if the 2 hit exactly the same I don't get the point of the plate at any thickness. Glad to hear the recoils don't turn crusty.

You have 2 of the same exact shafts? Why is the blue bigger on the older shaft?

I have always wondered why the APA uses ball count instead of 9 ball pocketed liked the rest of world. But I actually kind of like APA counting of balls to determine skill. I guess I am looking for some opinions here. Is the better player the one who can sink the most balls or the one who can...

Do older cue butts hit harder? I was reading that older cues are more dense and thus hit harder. For example: a used cue that is 10-20 years old?

That's why I wanted a stainless steel one.

I seen them. Do you break with it?

APA needs to extend the 8ball SL to at least 9 like 9 ball. A 550 SL7 vs a 700+ SL7 is going to get murdered every time... I know SL7's that are barely 500 Fargo. In a Fargo rated tourney that 550 would get a 3 game handicap.

I would not use an adapter or mid extension to Frankenstein a break cue. If you don't want to wait 3 months I would say pretty much any Predator butt except for a 4 point SP is what you want. IMO 4 point SP butts have a softer hit than the C4+, 4-Piece, 30-Piece butts. I also think an adapter...

Fantastic Friday!

What is the function of the pad?
