    Best All-Around Production Cue for ~$1000 (Value, Playability, Durability, Support)?

    I have an old Falcon that was a production cue i bought 35-40 years ago and can't remember what I paid for it. The shaft was turned down to 11.5mm and it started at 18oz. It needs a new butt cap ( small cracks) that I put clear nail polish over . The cue is straight as a die and has a sweet hit...

    Why do you play this game?

    A buddy and I went to a nearby mall for lunch from school one day and decided to check out a poolroom that was there. I ended up skipping school from there on and got a better education and didn't take long to graduate from the Academy of Spherical Arts

    Experiment

    These are Indica gummies with very low THC and are more a relaxer than a hallinogen

    Experiment

    I've been using the same break and playing cue for 40 years. I bought a cheap Chinese CF cue to try out but stick to the 11.5mm wood shaft. As far as developing any more at 73 it's not gonna happen and trying to find a litte of my youth play is what I'm after.

    Experiment

    I'm at wits end with my game and it's in my mind constantly. My break (9-ball) is pretty decent, banks are good, make difficult shots then lackluster kicks in on so-called easy shots. I think I've got it figured out trying gummies to relax me and it's showing results. The gummies I've tried are...

    Video as a tool.

    I had a friend do a video years ago when I was playing like crap and I went home and watched it over and over. All it was was being a lazy slop and didn't take long to figure it out.

    Is it better to "handicap" entry fees, then just play the darn tournament straight up?

    The tournaments here in the east coast (Canada) are FR based entries. It brings out alot of players for the events and they have cue raffles, 50/50 draws, 10 ball break n run that gets up to $700/ball. They also pay out to the top 3 low FR players

    Wow! I haven't seen Paul in at least 25 years and have only messaged him in the past year or two. We go back to 1970 and spent countless nights talking all things pool,life etc. Best wishes to my old friend.

    The quickest path to a straight, repeatable stroke, and the best metric used to evaluate it.

    With follow thru to make both balls I'd say the stroke is pretty good and accurate. I line up the shot, take 4-5 waggles (strokes) then close my eyes and take 3-4 more waggles before hitting the CB. I can feel the cue/arm being relaxed and smooth.
