    Fury J/B?

    I just got a Fury Jump Break. I am very impressed with how hard this thing breaks. The tip holds chalk very well. I can load the cue ball with plenty of english on the break and it doesn't miscue. It is a little harder to jump than my Stealth Jump cue but it is a lot more controllable. The...

    Ethics Question

    I am just curious to see what others would do in this situation. You are playing your bitter rivals in the league. This is the team that always wins the league and keeps your team in second place. You try a shot and no ball hits a rail. Your opponent was watching the shot and says nothing about...
