LD = low deflection, that means you still have to compensate for the shaft you are using, IMHO the only advantage CF has over wood shafts is consistency, if you are using a high quality CF shaft and you have a spare shaft they should play identical, I have found that this is not the case with...

I used a glove before CF shafts were ever made, I just liked the consistency of wearing the glove and how it made the shaft feel slick all the time so there was no adjustment moving to CF, I do know players who use CF without wearing gloves, so much like most billiard gear, be willing to try...

I wouldn't put Becue with any other CF shaft builder, they position the direction of the fibers in different parts of the shaft and use different bonding agents in different parts as well, they have a patented technology called the Aurora front end to reduce front end mass, great shafts and...

You forgot Becue, take a look at their Prime II shaft, you can get 30" and 31" lengths if you want, Great company from Italy who built the world's first complete CF cue.

I really didn't have to contact Becue but I wanted talk to someone there, I wanted to see how they treated a potential customer, Alessandro was passionate about the sport and bringing the advantages of CF to it, I stopped playing about 2012, I owned first a Meucci, then a Predator, and finally...

Not an A hole, I don't mind letting someone take a few shots but the first stupid thing done and the "test drive" is over, I don't want to be without MY cue because the person I'm doing a favor for is showing zero respect for my cue and me.

I think it depends on the game too, if you are playing 8 ball I don't think it's too long, I don't think most players would max out those times anyway, if you can't make up your mind and shot in 40 seconds .......

Will it be a low deflection double Uni-loc male pin? Is Gorst or Filler using it? Where can I buy one!!!!!

I consider myself very lucky to have found this website after a long absence from the game, I swore I would never use a CF shaft and thought Becue was a dumb name for a cue, I read reviews by Hawaiian Eye and asked some questions on his posts, he was very generous and answered my questions...

I don't think $1500 is a lot for a quality cue, if you keep the cue only 10 years that is only $150 a year, the longer you own it the cheaper it becomes, I prefer to buy once, I did try a couple of their shafts to find my favorite but in the grand scheme of things it's still not a lot of money...

I'm nowhere near your speed, it would probably be an easy win for you.

Far better than mindless video games that only teach you how to remember a sequence of moves in a computer program, with pool they are learning geometry, physics, risk assessment, and they are actually using their bodies walking around the table. I know, it's not running a marathon but it sure...

My stroke is not automatic yet, part of my whole shot routine is to do all of my thinking BEFORE I get down to take the shot, by thinking "this shot is easy" I guess I subconsciously had already moved on to the next shot, oops.....

After the break, 2 minute clock, 40 second shot clock after that and 2 extensions of 20 seconds

I can accept the cueball being kicked into the pocket breaking a cluster, or something like that but it's carelessness that caused that miss, it means I didn't follow my whole shot routine, shame on me.

No reason to chase the latest "technology" if you love what you have, I played like straight garbage last night and lost evey match, I didn't follow my whole shot routine like I should've, I thought this shot is easy too many times and the team we played is full of players who take the game...

I will never even think "easy shot" ever again after last night, damn near straight in, BIH, and rattled it in the pocket, lost the game, I was pissed at myself, I now think makeable shot, even highly makeable shot, when I think easy I don't believe there is any way I can miss.....until I...

Same for me, its why I play Becue cues, sort of like an M16, not the prettiest weapon but man does it hit good.......

Those things are impressive, it sounds like that room has a great following, do you think you would be able to take some of his clientele? Will those leagues let you run them that close to another league operator? Get your ducks in a row before losing any bucks or dough.....

Unfortunately, probably not, do some quick math, how many tables would you need being used just to pay rent/mortgage ? Start there, most successful halls are in/near bigger cities where there is more opportunity for clientele.
