    Taom Fusion Tip - Not Recommended!

    This tip came as default on a 12.5mm CF shaft. It’s said to be hard at the center and softer on the sides, and it is, you can actually feel that when pressing your thumb fingernail in to the side and center of the tip. It also grabs the Taom V10 chalk very well and is easier to chalk than other...

    Raven Carbon Fiber Break Shaft - first impression

    Got it today. I've ordered it with the Uni-Loc joint to pair it to my Predator BK-2 butt. Fit and finish are very nice. The shaft is clean and smooth, unlike the Rhino shafts, which you have to run 5-6 alcohol wipes on them to remove all the black gunk. The shaft fits the butt pretty flush at...

    Pechauer joint

    I know that the joint is some kind of a Proprietary joint but is it a common thread? Can an off the shelf LD shaft fit it?

    Custom fitted CF shaft

    Before CF, one could get a blank Predator shaft and fit it to the cur butt in terms of diameter, ring work, pin type, inserts, etc. I have a cue with a flat faced 5-16x14 long pin that I’m thinking about getting a new shaft for it. All the 5/16x14 shafts that I see are piloted. Is there a good...

    Open vs Close Bridge

    In the past, all pros (most of them) used close bridge. Every instructor was advocating close bridge as the way to go. Nowadays, all the pros (most of them) use open bridge... what changed? and when? For snooker it was always open bridge, the snooker stance was different and the chin is on the...

    I love 9-ball but...

    I really do love 9-ball; it's been my favourite game to play for many years, but I think it's time that it won't be played anymore at the pro level. It's too easy, and even with the 9 on the spot and breaking from the box, it took the pros a minute and a half to adjust their break and run out...

    Cynergy vs. Revo

    How do these two CF shafts compare in terms of deflection, power, and overall playability? Besides price differences, which one would you choose and why? (Brand loyalty doesn't count.)

    What's going on with pool equipment?

    I've been browsing around pool equipment sites, and it looks very gloomy. Some brands disappear, other cheap brands become too expensive as if they are custom, Cuetec? Really? Lucasi? Really? The old players in the industry put nothing appealing. And a lot of things have been sold out for a...

    Rhino CF Shaft - First impression

    I was a way from the game for over 10 years and I'm coming back to it and I see that CF shaft is the big thing... I was curious about them, don't need it, I have too many cues and shafts but really wanted to see what the hypes is all about. I chose Rhino as I felt it somewhere in the middles...

    For Sale: Arthur Custom Cue - Jump/Break cue

    Hi, I got this cue from Marcus Dienst at the WTC last February. I have only used it during that tournament so it has less then 20 hours of play (including playing time so very little use of breaking and jumping with the cue). I usually don't sell cues as I have hard time to part from them...

    European Pool Championship - break rule question

    Does anybody know if the break in the 9ball discipline is from the box or anywhere in the kitchen? Are they going to enforce the "3 balls pass the head string" rule? I can't find anything about it on the tournament site.

    Two great banks for the win

    Played in an 8ball league last nigh, I don't get to play 8ball that often although I really like the game. In one of the matches I was leading 1-0, at the second game I run all my group balls but had no shot on the 8 as it was close to the bottom rail and the five blocked the pocket. I played...
