I have a Joss cue from the 90's with the old hand logo. It's pretty heavy, 20+ oz. I'm about to buy a 30" shaft and if it's heavier than the shaft I have the cue will become a bit too heavy. Is there anything special to know about changing a weight bolt? It seems pretty straightforward but I...

Are there any other games that are popular in the pool halls you guys frequent? I recently bought a set of darts just to have something to do in between tournament matches. I am having fun throwing darts as a little break during practice sessions. I've played one game of gin in a pool hall...

Is there an easy way to do this? I have an older predator shaft with no butt to try it on. It's a larger pin size threaded into the wood with no insert so I was assuming it was 3/8x10 but I think radial pins might be similar size? Are there any other big pins that are common? Does home Depot...

When I get down on a long shot it sometimes feels like I can't get my head up enough to see the ob clearly, like it's too much in my periphery. I tried coming up more upright to get my head up but since this isn't my normal stance I feel I'm not stroking the ball as well. I'm 6'4-6'5 so on long...

Hello. I recently moved into a home that has room for a 7 ft table. I'm shopping around for a valley bar table. I plan to have a mechanic set it up for me but I want to disassemble and move it myself. Could any one give me a short overview of what is involved in this process or point me towards...

Hello, I was hoping you guys could help me out. I'm starting to play again after 7 years off and I'm looking to get into a custom cue in the 500 dollar range. i like the looks of this cue but I'm not familiar with the cuemaker. I believe he's from the phillipines but not sure. Any thoughts on...

I've been watching a lot of snooker on YouTube and goddamn, these guys are crazy good. I've been watching snooker coaching videos as well. I'd love to see Ronnie o give American pool a serious go. Although I'm sure he never would. It seems like the disorganized pool world might actually fit his...

I'm sure this has been beat to death but I'm gonna post it anyway. I'm looking to have a plain Jane or sneaky player made. It'd be nice to find a cue maker not too far from central California so that I could travel to there shop in person. Or if someone can find me a Scruggs sneaky I'd like one...

I want to be like a low budget dippy Dave at my pool room. How does a c player go about drumming up action without getting robbed. I asked a guy at my room to play a 500 set but that nit wouldn't give up shit! I even offered to eat a cube of chalk every other game. This is a serious question...

Does anyone else lick their chalk cube? Every once in awhile if I've been in the chair too long and I get fidgety I'll start licking my chalk. It actually doesn't taste bad but it really drys your mouth out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have an old predator pre cat 314. I like it but was thinking about trying something else. Someone offered to trade me a mezz cue with an alpha shaft, what do you guys think of this shaft compared to the pre cat 314
