    Pay attention to the wording of questions.

    I posted a thread on here wanting perspective about what pool instructors attempt to accomplish when teaching students and also ideas of what students expect from their pool instructors.

    Brand Sites vs Product Sites options

    I am just wondering why, if you got to a Brand site, the options are more limited than if you go to a product site? I can understand tip options vary, but why is it that you go to a brand site and the weight options have fewer choices that the product sites?

    Specs on Shane Van Boening's Cues

    I know Shane is sponsored by Cuetec and it says in his bio he likes the 360 shaft. I'm just wondering if anyone has an idea of his spec preferences. Mainly Shaft Diameter and weight? I've heard that he likes heavier cues, but just how heavy?
