    New volturi predator case

    Crazy Price! All i got to say. The Volturi Broque or Venice looks twice as expensive at 600 bucks. Here is an ideal. If I want one bad enough, I will just wait a few months and get one from Temu or Alibaba for $198 bucks since it has a Pedator logo :sneaky:😁

    I actually prefer a 57" cue. Im 5' 11. I don't think it is to short. Maybe players that prefer a long cue actually likes the rear weighted balance. I shoot with a long bridge 13.5 to 14.5" with my bridge arm fully extended and a 57" cue still puts me holding my cue with my middle finger at the...

    Thoughts on players who seemingly take Zero practice strokes, before shooting / final follow through?

    Im one of those players. I see my point of aim, I go down and get my tip close to cueball and pause for few seconds to make sure everything feels right and pull back and fire. Only time im feathering or micro stroking is on long straight in shots and straight draw shots. I also dont have a long...

    Schon value

    Looks a lot like a Schon N2 variation. I think a approximate retail value today would be around $2600. Kevin Stier of Integrity cues would have more input. He has had a a few similar models. Maybe give him a call and shoot him an email with the pic.

    Any Advice on how to shoot jump shots with accuracy?

    Can anyone ID this ringwork?

    Hey Chris Thanks, The insert is brass. Had to go back and look but when i got the shaft it was a 5/16x14 and i tapped it to 18 to use on a Meucci Original. So it had to be a cuemaker that used 5/16x14 none pilot with a small diameter joint .822 diameter.
