In a 9 ball tournament, if you touch the CB while in motion after pocketing the 9 ball, it is considered a foul. Same scenario if you remove pocketed ball from the pocket to assist spotter for the next rack. In one tournament, Cheska Centeno, pockets the 9 ball and while she was about to remove...

A friend has Meucci Gambler cue, but the logo was a simple M vs the full Meucci name, is this an older model?

Is it just me, or have soft cases taken over the pool world? 😂 Have hard cases officially gone out of style? I understand the appeal—soft cases are lighter and easier to lug around—but I still think a solid hard case, like the Instroke 2x4 Cowboy, gives your cues a lot more protection. After...

Instead of using the full-length of the bridge tool that is normally used, can you used instead say a 12-inch-long bridge tool and a regular cue extension? This way your aiming stance does not change, and the bridge length is still the same vs a long bridge when using only a cue extension...

Planning to have this cue made with Cocobolo and Quilted Sapele. I initially started with the design having joints, butt cap and rings, somehow, it seems to remove something from the cue, and I ended up with this. I once read that you should never join two pieces of wood together without...

Can you revive a dried up/hard ten year old tip?

When it comes to choosing a shaft, Is deflection the only factor? Are there other performance factors that needs to be considered, like will a certain shaft have more power given the same stroke/speed?

Check out SVB shot at 1 min 21 seconds on the 6 ball, SVB hit the CB for what was initially was a draw shot, but as there was not enough spin, balls moves forward for the correct shape on the 7. What is the difference or advantage between this shot and using a shot with top spin to get correct...

I'm going to miss, I'm going to miss, I'm going to miss, then you actually miss, How do I fix this?

Someone told me that if a CB hits the OB and the OB slow rolls to the pocket without hitting a rail, but crosses the imaginary "rail line" it is not a foul, any truth to this? Personally, I would call foul, but I could be wrong...

Scenario, Object ball goes inside the pocket, then comes out without hitting the rail, is it a legal shot? OB does not hit a rail prior to going inside the pocket

Got a Revo last December and been using it altely, the tip performed very well from the start, but now I am miscuing for the past two days. I used a 250 grade sandpaper to rough it up, just a few strokes, still the same. Not sure if it is me or the tip gets crappy over time. Has anyone else...

How do break in 8 ball and ensure that the CB is somewhere in the middle, I do not need to crush the rack, the objective is to break, get a good spread and the CB stays somewhere in the middle and then continue shooting EDITED Feb 26, 9:14 ET - Apologies for not making it clear, I don't need...

A friend of mine had his Revo with a BVP modified to have WVP, he says he cant see the tip of the cue when playing. I have both WVP and BVP and to me the color does not affect my game...

Does anyone or any pro use irish linen wrap on their cues?

Is this a good candidate for a conversion to a Uniloc joint?

What makes the shaft and butt straight when connected, the pins or the flat surfaces of both shaft and butt? if the surfaces is not true, will it still be straight when connected?

Most pros use a glove when using CF shafts, at least the ones that I have seen on TV. I have both Rhino and Revo and using it without gloves works and find no need to use a glove.

A long time ago in a galaxy far away :cool: , discussions about how a certain type of joint material, flat face, wood to wood, piloted, radial, Uniloc, etc was a common topic and how it affects the hit was commonly debated, have we come to realize that in a blind test, it would be near...

I play a small weekly tournament, and I noticed that i have better concentration when I am playing against better players or when I don't like the person :) , but when I am playing players who is on the same level or lower than I am, I tend to concentrate less and sometimes lose, so how do I put...
