If the 406 in your name means you are from Montana, pm me if you are interested in a custom. I've gone back to heavier, but I have made cues in your weight range, and used to use one that I made that was lighter.

It could easily be unstable enough that boring the piece would present significant risk of destruction. Coring/stabilizing is not always an either/or situation.

Nothing ugly about that veneer. It is a slip-match, all cut from the same log, in order and applied in order. As far as current condition, they appear to be completely untouched and not abused. As far as price, I'm not even going to guess.

This science nerd (and engineer) has been saying this for years. I used to use a bar cue that had a warp that was visible from 20ft, about a foot from the tip. I ran a lot of tables and win a lot of drinks with that cue. Nobody else would use it, so I put a new tip on it and worked on the...

That is an insult to the concept of ugly. The hideous bumper isn't even close to centered.

Or just buy a cue from any of the other thousand options.

Let's see... Of all the shoes and boots I own, none have a logo bigger than 1/2" x 1". None of the shirts I own have a logo. My jeans have logos that are covered by my belts. Unless I worked for the company, none of my hats have logos. I have made an effort, starting when I was 20, to wear...

Hard to play a safety 'real good' when the nine ball is the only thing on the table... So, unless your opponents pay escape shots 'real bad', you will have to make a shot to win.

New leadership, second chances, and all that, but the brand will always be tainted from an era of putting out absolute garbage. If I were in charge of Meucci branding, I'd at least change the logo away from the script that was used in the horrible era. I'm actually baffled that anyone would...

Meucci has been overpriced garbage since the early 2000's. I hear they got better, but the way they burned people back then leaves them completely off my radar. I had a friend who spent a decent chunk on a mooooochy back then, inlays literally fell out in six months. She babied that cue.

A couple of things. First, easier said than done. Second, I'm not talking about while playing, I am talking about personal post-game analysis and practice.

Jack is in the mission valley area, I believe.

I've heard the same. Also, telling yourself not to miss acknowledges the possibility of a miss. It's why I don't really play two way shots.

I agree with your sentiment about the second statements, if they are present at game time. I meant that the statements of fact are useful after the game is over and as a goal to work toward, or a problem to fix before the next game. Being objective and honest about a performance gives one...

Why don't you take this crap to DM or NPR. This is supposed to be a humorous thread, not steak photos and Grindr.

If you address the cueball correctly, a warp won't affect your precision. The tip isn't in contact far enough to make any practical difference. You don't need to 'clock' the shaft, just forget about the warp and play. It's all just irrelevant noise.

I've said it before, but it bears keeping in mind: Never say, 'I'm in a slump', or, 'I have a problem making the eight ball', or anything of the sort. Instead, say, 'I haven't been playing my best for a few days', or, 'I've missed a few eight balls'. Follow these by, 'I'll start playing...

Montana things, too. Learned that 30 years ago. Also: Don't name that dog. Smile before you get down on the shot. Don't play eight ball.

Reading comprehension isn't a strong suit in these parts, pardner.

100%. A lifelong journey of learning. Be well.
