Got hurt last year, and in spite of my best efforts, I can't play pool anymore without real pain. So, I decided to let go of a few of my cues now, hopefully to players who will appreciate them, and of course, get more out of them than me. This is a J. Pechauer Custom cue, 19.5 oz. with a...

I just spent nine days "in the zone," my longest stay in over 10 years. Most likely ever. The reason I bring this topic up is that last night when I discovered I was again out of the zone, I tried to remember the last time I was in it for that length of time (I can't recall. If ever, it was a...

Just wanted to say thanks again to Mr. Jim Baxter for the beautiful JPs he made for me. Also, I want to let people know just how much his efforts were appreciated in producing these for me. I needed a set for my new J. Pechauer, but it came with their proprietary quick release joint. Jim...

About two months ago I purchased an Audrick Custom Cue off Ebay, mostly to satisfy what I euphemistically call the "I need something different" blues. I had heard a little about Pilipino cues, and saw an opportunity to try one out without putting a rather large hole in my budget. Long story...

Just got a new custom Peach and I've been trying to find some nice JPs for it, but can't seem to find any, other than plastic ones. Does anyone know where I can find some exotic wood JPs for my new Peach? Thanks.

This question may have been asked before, but I've been wondering this for awhile: is it possible to convert a linen-wrapped cue to a wrapless cue? And I don't mean clearcoating the wrap. I guess what I mean is, what's under the wrap? Is it just wood? If so, why can't you just take off the...

This may not be the right place for this, if that's the case blame it on my newbicity (ouch, invented another word. newbiness?). To the point: I've seen several Richmond Originals on Ebay and I even went to their site. They look okay, but I've never heard of them. Can anyone say whether...

This is a mini-review of the phenolic-tipped jump/break shaft that I recently purchased off of Ebay. I have had this shaft for about two weeks now and used it on 6 days of shooting. The reason I purhcased this shaft was due to shoulder injuries I sustained 15 years ago which make power...

Anyone who has bothered to read my "Introductions are in Order" post knows that I play a lot of Meuccis and also some of the specifics of my pool background, therefore I'm not going to go into all that here; this is going to be long enough as it is. I just wanted to post a review of the new...

Okay this question may have been asked before, so I apologize if I'm wasting space here. However, I just acquired a phenolic tipped shaft, was about to take my willard's tool to it and suddenly all these questions popped into my head. Not knowing what to do, I decided the best thing would be...

Qualifier: I am not a pro. In fact, I'm just a BCA 7. Just a self-taught run-of-the-mill player. However, I've been playing 8 ball for over 25 years and in that time developed my own strategy for the game which has allowed me a certain level of consistent success which I am going to put...

Hi. I just joined and I just wanted to introduce myself. I?m Richard and I currently reside in Phoenix, AZ. I fly freight planes for a living and just about any plane for fun. I have about a million hobbies, so let?s just say I have a ?plethora? of interests. The top three after pool would...
