Did you get to change the rings out?

I need to get down there to Ryda's and check it out.

Haven't been to SA in a couple months but I'll take your word for it. I-35 in Austin is ridiculous for construction at the moment and I'd almost rather drive in rush hour traffic in Houston than drive on I-35. It's bad enough in Austin that I don't get on 35 unless I absolutely have to.

Less weight works for me. I took the weight out my late E series/early M series McDermott jump/break and it went from 21oz to 17.6oz. I could always break pretty well with it but I can break much harder with less weight.

No matter where it goes in Texas, I'm for it. It's probably the only way I'd get to go to one. I grew up outside of Corpus Christi. It's nearly as hot and way more humid than San Antonio and Austin, but it does usually have a breeze coming off of the Gulf. There are a couple convention...

To follow up on this, I have a list with pictures in my safety deposit box and with my will on the cues that are actually worth anything. I don't really expect my heirs get great money out of it but they won't give stuff away.

To answer your question, I probably do. Like guns, I have pool cues I have forgotten I owned. For instance, someone asked recently how many CF shafts I had. I had 17 at the time and forgot that 2 were missing. I don't know how many butts I have at the moment. When new folks join the leagues...

I also just put the forward extension on both a 13mm break CF and a 11.8 CF playing shaft and then put them on a straightness checker. I found that it was almost perfectly straight on the 13mm with little effort but there was a little wobble on the 11.8mm. Additionally, on the 11.8, it feels...

First, what diameter is your shaft? Seems like there could be some variation in a smaller diameter shaft. I've been shooting with 12.9s of late so that's all I've shot on so far. I'll throw an 11.8 in my bag and see if it makes a difference. Off the top of my head, I'd say take the fastener...

I can only speak for myself, but my disdain for Predator is that almost all of their stuff is made overseas in production factories. They have to know that they can ramp production and still sell all the BK Rushes they can manufacture but choose to not do so for some reason. That, and they...

Apologies, I missed your questions. From what I remember Hanshew's wife telling me when I bought it, they are on the third or fourth iteration now and the rubber ring material was one of the things they changed because there were some issues with marking in earlier versions. At worst, I have...

There's an older gentleman I know that shoots with an original Balabushka in a bar league. It looks nothing like the CoM cue so most folks wouldn't recognize it.

If you are willing to take PayPal goods and services, I'll take the Rhino shaft,

I do as well, but it's just laminated, not CF cored.

I've got one and I like it quite a bit. It fits snuggly on a variety of diameters of shafts. My favorite part of the forward extension is that you use your normal shooting geometry and stroke with it. Any questions about it?

I like the McDermott Intimidator shafts, particularly the i2. I've had one for ~20 years and it still plays great.

It's essentially become smooth over time, which paradoxically, makes it play worse.
