    OB: a stand up company!

    If you call them enough time's you'll catch Shane on the phone as he's filling in for the person who normally answers the phones day to day. I've spoke to him, he sounded really busy. I can say that OB resolved my issues but as other's have stated it's a pattern of obuse(pun)... it's hard to...

    Triangle-LePro.......??

    When I buy a box of elkmaster's I put them through a few tests to find the more consistent tips: 1. Visual inspection, focusing on the back of the tip more than anywhere else. Any scars or wrinkles in the leather? Is the grain consistent? 2. Bounce test. How does each tip bounce if dropped...

    Getting Rid of Pendulum Stroke. Digicue Loves it.

    Great analogy. You have to reassemble the car after fixing the engine... Every small tweak I make, it takes time to assimilate.. sometimes weeks.

    Goofy Bar Rules I Have Encountered

    Last time I was in europe I played bar pool with a few random drinkers and they pulled this rule on me - I took their word for it but was adamant that I have never played a game of bar pool where a miss allows the opponent 2 shots. I figured they needed the extra luck against me and let them...

    Viking vs Mcdermott

    If you don't want aftermarket shafts, or an extension, then I'd probably go Viking. Otherwise McDermott. You *can* get shafts for a Viking but the pin a McDermott is much more common. I came for the punishment though. Making popcorn :thumbup:

    Derby City Dress Code

    I like to play in slip on sandals... with socks when it's cold out. I only play local leagues though. The way I see it is I should shoot comfortably, and I never wore shoes when I was learning pool in my parent's basement 20 years ago. a different pair of shoes does change things slightly...

    Cue Extensions

    No more "dart" strokes while bridging with an extension Part of the reason I grabbed a McDermott H-series was to utilize the new extension / butt-cap combination. Often times when I would reach for a bridge I don't need it with an extension - and even if I am bridging I can bend down into a...

    Tips... Are we fooling Ourselves?

    THANK YOU I have been wondering the solution for doing this with the carpenter glue instead of milk/goat milk. I stand by milk-duds over any tip I've tried so far. I use elk-masters, however with a box of 50 tips only 1/5 pass my inspection. Here is what I inspect to get the best consistency...

    Terrible customer service - OB Cues

    Hmm... ok. BBB scores exists, net promoter scores exist, reputations exist all for a reason. Tangible reasons being written in this thread. I think it's dumb to tell everyone to turn the other cheek and ignore the rumors. I did this like you would have everyone do and got burned by having...

    Terrible customer service - OB Cues

    Take the troll out of your mouth and say that again? I have no idea what you were attempting to deliver there... was it irony? rhetorical rant? Whaaaaat?

    Terrible customer service - OB Cues

    Yeah the new shafts seem to have some "production issues" - I fear they aren't the same construction as they once were. OB used to be awesome and it seems I purchased my cue at the turn of many changes. The cue's balance/construction was unique - as well as the shaft's. Right before I...

    Terrible customer service - OB Cues

    AFAIK it is the number of laminated pieces in the shaft.

    Terrible customer service - OB Cues

    I had issues with the first OB cue I ordered and also a thinner OB shaft that I ordered. OB made good on both issues immediately - however I was a bit disappointed because the shaft I purchased was the 6+ construction while the new shafts are only 4+ I think. I feel like the 6+ was a...

    Mcdermott H-Series, variable weight review

    Sorry for the crazy large photos. I grabbed them straight off my phone... I've been playing with this a few times and I have to say it's awesome being able to try a different balance point and different weights at those balance points. I believe the cue has a great hit and the stroke feels...
