Had a hard time with the title of this thread. Anyway, over the years I've heard about the middle finger as a key. Coming from very old school where it was taught that the index finger was under the thumb... I always thought that the teaching of the middle finger thing meant that the thumb...

Is there such a person? I have 2 examples, one has a date but not the other. I'm mostly wondering about the other, but the one with a date is signed to a player. Kinda curious on the player but not hopeful that the customer was notable. Of course both cues are typical Martin.. BEM butt...

Can anyone lead me to the rules. I quit reading the USBA version when they say... In 47.2, the player may make a point when both balls are in the cadre but must drive one object ball out before making the second point. How can I drive a ball out of the cadre BEFORE I make the 2nd point...

I don't follow this forum much so don't know if this site has been mentioned. I really enjoy your game as a spectator. I really enjoy this FB page. https://www.youtube.com/@stephenhendryscuetips

I have Dieckman 3-Cushion Cues with Wood Pins in the shaft. Is it feasible to make an adapter to accept a graphite shaft. I'm sure the machining is possible but is it a bad idea?

What needs to happen is a better Search Engine I get no hits on searches even with Google Search

I'm sitting in a Hotel room in Des Moines, IA about 10 mins away. Went there yesterday, a day early, and banged some balls on their Sogaard a short while. There were 2 vendors hawking stuff. Chalk Holders, Cheap Cues, .... junk basically. Wondering if I should shut down this computer and...

My apologies in advance. I'm too old to learn to play but love watching. I did a forum search but of course, nada. So why is it that even top players seem not concerned with their tip being flush with the ferrule? Promise not to infiltrate your forum with too many silly questions. Love your...

Years ago my brother got me into following and watching Snooker after he moved to London. Really love watching the game. We were talking yesterday about the fiasco with the protester and just wondering?? Does anyone know if the tables are regularly recovered during a World Championship? Is it...

The answer to this is likely buried somewhere in these threads but thought I'd just ask the straightforward question. My cloth still has plenty of life. Just wondering. I'm also a little worried, since the so called "Standard of the Industry" is in trouble. Are they going to survive with Snooker...

I've been reading this forum for some time and most Instructors agree that after the CB is contacted, It's all over. No argument. What seems to me the instructors are also saying is ... No matter HOW the CUE is delivered, the point of contact is the Only Thing That Matters. Why is it that when...

I've done the search prior to posting this, so please moderate your dings. I accept being dinged. I have never played with a leather wrapped cue, but lately I find myself in a position where I may be somehow a collector. Someone here on AZ is shedding his collection and some of his final...

Is it worth it for an accomplished player to have in their home? It looks nearly like a Gold Crown but without the pocket Irons, or whatever their called. I like the look but how's the build? The price is right as they say but who wants a POS when you know what's right and wrong. Asking...

I'm about to purchase a Martin Cue we think was built in the 50's. We also strongly believe the Butt Cap, Ferrule, and joint Sleeve have previously been replaced. Given that information and the selling price is not outrageous as its really not a collector's item per se, I'm considering some...

Just cleaned out my InBox and saw a message from him. He always had something interesting to read. Hope he's doing well.

Hard for me to find the words for this question but gotta start somewhere. While under quarantine I'm on my 3C table more than ever which is a good thing. A large percentage of my shots I'm clocking the CB and now trying to expand on that knowledge trying to get more precision beyond 1/2Ball...

A great tournament - great equipment - good people.
