    Jacoby extension bumper?

    I purchased an extension for my Jacoby, but need an extension ready bumper for it. Checked their website and the bumper costs more than the extension I bought. Checking to see if anyone has a cheaper option for a jacoby original extension bumper (not the quick release). Thanks.. or if anyone...

    Jacoby threaded bumper for extension

    Does Anyone have a threaded bumper for extensions for a jacoby cue? Doesn't have to be new, just don't want to pay the crazy jacoby website price. I have an aftermarket bumper but it doesn't fit the original jacoby extension threads. Thanks

    Custom shaft questions

    I'm thinking of getting two, mostly identical shafts made. Solid maple, no splicing, 3.8 oz, 12.4mm, 29 inches, pro taper. I'd like both to be a lively, in terms of vibrational feedback, as possibleThe only real difference I want is for one to be stiff and one to be whippy. How exactly would you...

    What makes a shaft whippy?

    First what is a whippy shaft? A shaft with a lot of flex and vibration? Then is the only thing that makes a shaft whippy a small diameter, long, pro taper? Or are there other factors?

    Mezz shafts

    Does anyone have any experience with mezz shafts? Specifically the the hit and feel of the 12.5 sigma and the 700. For comparison I own an ob classic plus, tiger pro, Bob dainelson kielwood and a meucci pro maple. I'm looking for something not stiff, on the softer side, like the meucci but with...

    Been playing around with weight and balance point on my player and wondering if anyone is aware of studies, discussions or anecdotal experience with if balance point and weight affect the amount of deflection using the same butt and shaft? I remember seeing a clip a while back with earl trying...

    Parallel vs BHE vs tuck and roll vs "intuitive" English vs whatever else you use.

    I'm a parallel english guy. I get down on the shot, parallel to the shot line, with an already adjusted aim for deflection and throw and shoot straight. It does require a small amount of thinking so it's not exactly automatic and was wondering if jermey Jones style of automatic adjusting would...

    Soft hitting custom cue maker cues?

    It seems that most of the custom cues I've hit with tend to be stiffer. Are there any cue makers that make a cue with softer, more subtle or buttery hit? Also what shafts have you played with that you recommend for a softer or whippier hit? Thanks in advance.

    Shaft thread re-tapping?

    I have a shaft that I want to try out as my player but my pin is radial and the shaft thread is 3/8x10. I was talking to a guy I know who sells and works on cues and he told me he could re-tap the shaft to a radial thread. What exactly is re-tapping, what is the process? He said he could only...

    Great Players with a pronounced stroke slip

    Just curious who some great players that consistently use a stroke slip (throwing the cue forward on your final stroke through the cue ball) are. Watched Atencio vs Shane in the finals of the US open 10 ball and Atencio uses a stroke slip on almost every shot and it looks smooth as mashed...

    Any ideas on something that's been bugging me?

    I recently bought a tiger pro shaft. The people at tiger always go above and beyond. The shaft plays and feels great. But I play a lot of bank pool and I usually bank with english to spin the object ball off the rail, and for some reason I wasn't able to get much spin transfer to the object ball...

    Aluminum radial pin?

    I've had my Jacoby for a couple years but I've always liked a more rear weighted player. So I took my cue up to Tiger and I'm having them switch the pin from a stainless steel to an aluminum radial pin, it'll remove an ounce. I was originally gonna go with a g10 but switched it up. I honestly...
