https://pad.chalkysticks.com/abaf2.png In this layout would you just draw back - a little low right - for the 5B in the lower right corner? I struggle with this shot. I usually hit it too hard and end up with a bad angle on the 5B. I hope this PNG works. r/DCP

I know this has been debated over the years. Just wondering if owners of Gold Crown tables are still doing it? Or is it a past issue by now? And if they are being diamondized, what exactly is being done to them? The reason I am asking is because I simply don't like the way my Gold Crown IV...

Anybody been reading Efren's posts on Facebook? Assume they are legit? If so what does everyone think?

Is it still out there? I never hear or see of it anymore. And if so, what year was it last updated?

I was in Owensboro yesterday (Tuesday) having some work done on my cues by Chad Carter. Afterwards I stopped in at Rack n'Cue and visited with Nick Varner for awhile. Hadn't been there for 3-4 years and it was good to see him again. I bought some chalk and a new glove while I was there. I...

Is there any place out there where you can go and design your own cue? I am talking about a website where you have access to tons of various inlays, points, diagrams, aesthetics, etc, etc. And can make a cue just exactly like you want. As an example, I am sure almost all the various...

On one of the Accu-Stats DVDs from the Sands Regency tournament in Reno one of the announcers said if you play Rotation it will help your 9-Ball game. Not sure if it was Bill Incardona or David Maddux or Jay Helfert. A comment was made that Rotation is the main game played in the Philippines...

I just ordered five more Accu-Stats DVDs. These are basically from the US Open and Sands Regency Tournament in Reno from back in the 1990s. I will now have over 60 of their DVDs. I still watch them all. Pretty much over and over again. Really enjoy them. Good learning tools as well...

Ok, here you go. Some of you posters said you would like to see pics of the two new cues that arrived yesterday. I finally got to hit some balls with them. So far both of them have failed as I keep missing balls. Must be a design flaw. Certainly couldn't be me..:) The Pechauer has a...

I've just received the UPS shipping notification emails for both the new Joss Custom and the new Pechauer Custom. I am getting them both on the same day! That day being this Friday, the 27th! Anybody ever get two new custom (or semi custom) cues on the same day? Maybe I will luck out and one...

Every now and then I see a reel on Facebook of Efren or others playing on a table that says Star Billiards on the side. What exactly is Star Billiards? Is it an Asian company that makes pool/billiard tables? Sort of like Brunswick or Diamond here in the states? r/DCP

https://pad.chalkysticks.com/585fa.png I seem to be running across this shot a lot lately. It's an extremely thin, almost backwards, shot into the side pocket. For arguments sake I put the 5B and 8B in the way so nobody could say to play it in the bottom right corner. How do you make this...

Just wondering what everyone thinks of Pechauer cues? I am thinking about purchasing one and just wondering if anyone here plays with a Pechauer. Or knows anything about them recently? It's always nice to have some good recommendations on a cuemaker before purchasing. r/DCP p.s. people...

https://pad.chalkysticks.com/5b029.png Anybody have any ideas? I tried low inside, hitting it hard, but it sort of died coming off the end rail and came up well short. Would you play around with high right and play position for the short corner? r/DCP

I have a break shaft that I use with my Cuetec cue that was made for me by Mueller's over 20 years ago. This Cuetec cue is the lightest cue I have and I usually practice the break with it when I am playing at home. Anyway, I guess the threads in the shaft won't tighten to the 3x8/10 pin...

Buddy and Grady were talking about this the other day on one of my 2001 Masters DVDs. I did see in a copy of Billiards Digest that Nick Varner won the first Superman Classic back in 2001. I guess my question is - how many years did they have this tournament down in the Metropolis/Paducah area...

I ordered one of their standard custom cues about two weeks ago. I put all the special instructions in the order form. Got the standard emails back. Plus I had emailed with Stephen twice regarding the order. The emails back from the company said about two weeks. Stephen said about three...

I have been watching alot of my Accu-Stats videos from back in the 1990s and early 2000s. Mainly the US Open and the Sands Regency Tournament in Reno. Grady is commentating on a lot of these videos. I never met Grady over the years back when the BCA had the big Mens & Womens tournament in May...

Whatever happened to Steve Tipton? He used to be the tournament director for the WPBA. Have seen or heard nothing about him for quite awhile now. r/DCP

Anybody got any brilliant ideas on how to deal with the humidity in my basement? Yes, I have a dehumidifier and I run it alot. I am going to run it most of the day tomorrow. When I pick up my cues the linen wraps are damp. The table also seems to play slow. We've had a lot of rain here in...
