    Jb custom 3x4 butterfly case

    Just received this today and the craftsmen ship was everything I expected it to be! Everything went perfect in the process. I didn’t go with leather because I didn’t want the up keep and thought it would be heavier. Not shown in the picture I got the little Velcro dividers in the long pocket...

    Great shipping … NOT! 😂

    Got a new shorty cue delivered today. (Btw balance right shortys play great!) And this is how they shipped it. That huge box with nothing in it to pad it 😂 just threw it in the box , taped it and sent it. If this was an expensive cue I wouldn’t be happy but just a cheap shorty cue made me chuckle.

    Best shorty cue?

    I have some wall issues in my garage and I think I’m going to get a better shorty cue. The one I have I like the weight .. it’s about 17 oz. But it’s a duff with a hard rock maple shaft. That hits a little stiff. The trouble shooter seems to get great reviews.. I also like the predator sport...

    Was old school straight pool different ….interesting video

    I’m not sure if I found his thoughts interesting or just enjoyed watching crane play straight pool. I know this conversation has come up often . I think it has. I think it’s become much more aggressive now. It’s the slower chip balls out game played then. Guys want to blow the rack open...

    Jb custom case ordered.. now the wait!

    I’m terrible at waiting lol but jb is the best so it’s worth it. I got a nylon butterfly case with my name on it. Black with white piping around the pockets. It’s says 12 to 18 weeks and I know that’s not set in stone. Quality takes time and I’m fine with that but how long on average do any of...

    Predator 4th of July sale

    Just thought for any of the predator fans I would throw this out there. It’s actually a good sale. They have some good prices on quite a few cues. Some of them like $300 off , $20 shirts .. a lot of the gloves that I like our $14. Their sales usually aren’t this good. Must be clearing...

    Pinky on or off during stroke.

    I’m out here for apa nationals and have noticed a lot of variance in grip so I thought I’d throw up a poll to see what everyone prefers. I’ve done both pinky touching only during forward stroke and pinky never touching during the stroke at all.
