    WTB Hsunami or Pat Diveney Kielwood Shaft

    I have a Hsunami shaft I'd be willing to let go... 29" 3/8-10 12.4mm (I believe - I'll confirm in a bit) Very hard press Triangle tip, but this can be changed. Brown joint collar PM me for additional info or pics.

    APA 2023 US Open Amateur Championship

    Mccreesh has been kicked out of many tournaments, mostly because of his attitude, not skill level.

    APA 2023 US Open Amateur Championship

    Fargo is a blessing and a curse. It's neat to compare yourself, with reasonable accuracy, against others. However, now everyone wants either big spots or you're shunned from local tournaments, albeit they are more "fair" for the general populous. Long gone are the days of a hustle or just...

    Carbon fiber shaft

    Definitely try both, they play and feel very differently. They are both great, with cuetec feeling consistent between different diameter shafts. Predator 11.8 versus 12.4 does not feel or sound the same IMO. Predator has slightly less deflection on hard shots, again IMO. Mezz and Cuetec feel...

    WTB: 12.2 CF shaft, 5/16-14 (scruggs)

    My largest 5/16-14 pin is .308 and there is definitely some wiggle room there, until it engages into the plastic half of the United joint, then it snugs up nicely. My Mezz united joint measures at .312, so your pin should work.

    WTB: 12.2 CF shaft, 5/16-14 (scruggs)

    Yes and it's about 2 years old, however it didn't get much play the first year. I used it on multiple 5/16-14 cues without issue. You can measure the OD of the pin and I can check it against mine.

    WTB: 12.2 CF shaft, 5/16-14 (scruggs)

    I have a Mezz Ignite, 12.2mm with a united joint - fits 5/16-14. I'd consider letting it go for $450 shipped. It's in excellent condition with a newer Ultraskin black hard.

    Reason for “expensive “ chalk

    I must be the odd man out. I've noticed alot MORE skids ever since these fancy chalks came out, whenever my opponents are using them. I seldom ever see a skid from masters or blue diamond. However, at the absolute limits, miscues are more likely to happen with the cheaper chalks, but thats...

    Did the cue market fall apart?

    The majority of the cues for sale are from resellers who up charge 1000-2000 more than the cue is worth hoping someone bites and artifically inflating the market. Therefore they are going to sit around until a buyer sees their perfect cue. Reselling is fine, but the mark ups are crazy. I had...

    CF scratch repair

    Carbon Fiber repair is typically performed by mixing graphite powder with epoxy to fill in the void. Then sanding the repair down flush and buffing to match the rest of the finish. Matching the existing finish is usually the hard part unless you refinish the whole shaft.

    Cue shaft wood?

    Ash is more abundant in the UK versus maple, so they used what they had available at the time. They like to keep with tradition and continue to use Ash.

    8ball 7' vs 9'

    Bar table 8 ball is more interesting because you're constantly breaking up clusters and playing more precise position. 8 ball on a 9' is kind of boring especially at the pro level, seemingly constant break and runs.
