I thought I understood why a snooker player would have a smaller shaft diameter (typically 8.5-9.5mm) than American pool players (typically 11.75-13). But when thinking about it more, why wouldn't a snooker-sized shaft work for pool? What is actually gained, in either direction? More...

I've been watching some of Tor Lowry's YouTube videos. I find them very well done. His recent one about position play gives excellent explanations/illustrations and compelling reasons for his recommended approaches. While watching, a lot of things really clicked home for me and I found myself...

I have four untouched pieces of Taom Pyro (blue). I'm willing to trade 1:1 for a piece of Taom V10. Anyone?

I'm thinking of attending the '23 Derby City Classic. I've never been and searching threads has yielded a little but not a whole lot of the information I'm looking for (there are a lot of threads discussing the events and results which makes searching for answers to the more logistical questions...

Originally posted in the ask a mechanic forum, but figured it might get more visibility here. In the last few months I got a brand new Diamond 9' professional. Black leather pockets. My balls get marked to the point I'm wiping off marks multiple times per session. After searching this forum...

Looking for a wrapless Southwest. I like simpler cues, plain janes, but am willing to consider one with points. I like african blackwood and curly maple, but will consider any woods. Let me know what you got!

In the last few months I got a brand new Diamond 9' professional. Black leather pockets. My balls get marked to the point I'm wiping off marks multiple times per session. After searching this forum, it sounded like it was supposed to be an "old" Diamond table problem, not a brand new table...

Hello, I have for sale a 2010 Sugartree. It's been my player for the last year but was just at southwest getting cleaned up, so is smooth, ding-free, with nicely shaped tips and clean ferrules. Curly/BEM nose and sleeve, cocobolo handle. The maple is pretty nice as it's half birdseye and...

Hello, I am in the market for a Sugartree cue. Nothing too fancy, preferably a plainjane with nice ringwork, but I'll consider others. PM me with pics of what you have and a price.

I am looking for an OB2 shaft that will fit a uni-loc joint. More specifically, it should fit a Lucasi hybrid, such as this: http://www.ozonebilliards.com/luhyclsecuel.html Preferably with the thick silver ring, but I guess that's not absolutely required. New or used-but-excellent-condition...

I am selling my Sugartree fullsplice cue. It is Ipe wood into straight grain maple, with a nice birdseye maple buttsleeve. It has two dense, dark shafts. I bought it brand new six months ago and it has been my everyday player. There are a couple microdings in the buttsleeve (you need to...

Hi, I'm looking for a sugartree cue. I like the newer taper he went to last year, so it pretty much has to be an '11 or later. My preference is for a sneaky or a plainjane, although I will consider anything (mostly it's a cost concern). I am looking for a pretty narrow weight range...

Playing a game of 10ball. I break and make the one and eight. I shoot in the two, three, four and five. While evaluating the table before my shot on the six I realize (and at the same time, my opponent realizes) the one ball is still on the table; I made the nine-ball on the break. What happens?

Hi, all, I am selling a Jerry Franklin era Southwest. This cue is pre-date, pre-cactus, from 1991. It is Pau Ferro wood with six birdseye maple points (3 high, 3 low) and a nice birdseye maple ring in the buttsleeve. Cue has the original white and green spec linen wrap, and matching...

Hello, I'm selling a nearly-brand-new Sterling Wave case. It is 3x4 with the brown/tan color configuration. I bought it new then put a cue in it for one day, and that's the extent it's been used. I just have more cases than cues at the moment, and so I might as well get the case to someone...

Hello, I'm selling my wrapless Jon Spitz cue. It is ebony with very-well figured curly maple and nice ringwork at all positions. Cue rolls straight and is in immaculate condition except for a little bluing of the shaft. SOLD shipped in CONUS. Specs: Butt: 15.03oz Shaft: 3.50oz Total Wt...

I hate to do it, but, well, I'm doing it. For sale is my Sugartree sneaky. Nicely figured rosewood into beautiful curly maple complemented with nice ringwork. This was my player until I found another Sugartree that I preferred slightly and as a student I don't want to have too much tied...
