Honestly, the worst part about buying a custom cue is dealing with the cue maker. Theyre usually slow to respond at best, sometime unresponsive altogether. If I could order a cue from someone who communicated and had less then a 6 month wait I'd be buying 2 cues a year just for the hobby of it.

I dont get your point, but thats alright. you can make a 14mm tip whatever curvature you want And i bet you a 14mm nickel tip feels more "point and shoot" than a sub 12.5 mm nickel tip does.

14mm is the allowed limit set by most pool organizations like the WNT, BCA and WPA. Additionally there's no limit to how small you can make a shaft...so maybe they agree with bigger is better?

I have enough of my own anecdotal evidence to know what works for me...its is funny to listen to know it alls, especially when they bring up snooker. like comparing tennis to pickleball, or horseshoes to cornhole

I dont think you can go wrong with the vantage, I really like it. I used to use a Z3 which is just a touch lower deflection then the Vantage but the smaller diameter of 11.8 on the Z3 can and will punish you if youre not 100% locked in, but the Vantage is much more consistent for me as far as...

youre gonna get 100 different answers including the cliche "its the indian not the arrow" But generally speaking, regardless of materials used, the larger diameter the tip the more forgiving it will be. 13mm is a good starting point. I used a 13.25mm one time and it was very "point and shoot"...

Anyone sitting on any John Davis blanks? LMK please!

10 ball break is different enough from 9 ball to make it interesting, and no early 9

I wont say jump cues ruined the game but they definitelt have changed it drastically. Used to be if your opponent made a mistake and hooked themselves you were likely getting back to the table, now you see players hook themselves and they just jump the ball and continue on with the run out. Now...

just play 10 ball

nice cue and good price

honestly, i think Shane doesnt care what people think anymore. He got his world championship a few years ago, that was his white whale his entire career. Fedor already beat Shane in a race to 120 so he can hang his hat on that.Its an exhibition, nothing more. Now, if Filler accepts the invite...

who cares, weve seen them play to 120 and we know how it ended

Looking for a Barnhart butt only...let me know if you have anything youre looking to get rid of. Budget is 1k and under. Thanks

bump

being a pro pool player aint all its cracked up to be...8 hour daily practice sessions for small amounts of money, pressure to perform, traveling, etc. I'd rather cook food too

The day rate is a great deal, $12 and play as long as you want

I live in VA Beach and Q master is not worth the drive. You could probably find some 1P action in the back but its nothing to call home about. You could hit peninsula billiards in Newport News and save yourself the extra 45 min drive

I would say if money is no object the Propel or Air Rush is probably the best you can get. There are plenty of other options that are 90% as good though for way less money. I bought an OB Lift Pro for $180 and its ALMOST as good as my friends Propel, not worth the extra money in my opinion.

zero reason to call safe unless youre playing 8 ball and want to pocket the ball while giving up the next shot for strategy
