    Good Books to Learn From

    The title to that book suggests its just a description of shots. It is presented as a way of learning pool and is more than just how to do 99 shots. Anyone proficient in pool has learned these shots although they may have stumbled upon them over many years and discussions. This is superior...

    Craigslist seller of cuemaking business that takes 3hrs/day, no advertising, high profit-margin, and provides good living

    How much of this Craigslist ad from Athens, Georgia is true? I presume the $125 is incorrect (maybe something like Facebook's $1,234 for sales of multiple items).

    Cynergy shaft issues

    Despite Boogieman's surprise if ANY CF cuemaker holds a tolerance to 0.09mm, Boogieman's own AI assistant claimed some major cue companies do. Who? I asked AI and it claimed two companires do: Cuetec does (or is it more like 0.01mm?) and Mezz does (see below). So, maybe ChopStick's Cuetec...

    Caiden tip and product review

    Given the reviews at PoolDawg, it appears the Warrior sound is not that different from other tips. Still, this is interesting given Caiden's description at Seybert's website of the Warrior tip emphasizes its sound while there is no mention of sound in the Fighter description. Here, again, is...

    Rhino full cue test hit

    It appears you found that with Retro's butt, the Rhino shaft hit softer than a similar Rhino shaft with some other butt. Also, that this soft hit is not likely due to Retro cue's tip. Rhino may agree or, at least, it has tried to fix that soft-hit problem in its newer Nebula series. It...

    ⚡ ❗ Got used McDermott H-Series butt?

    I would like to try out McDermott's H-Series butt because it is the only company that allows one to adjust weights the entire length of the butt. It is a little pricey, however, and so I am looking for a used one. I missed my chance a while ago where eBay auctioned off an H-Series cue with...

    Dating a Huebler cue by its logo // Opinion of a Huebler now at auction for $150?

    It appears model HI1 has only vertical lettering and no additional Huebler lettering. Model HI3, however, has both vertical HI3 and vertical HUEBLER lettering (post #27 photos). The photos below appear to show model HI1 butt with only HI1 lettering. The photos are from the Worthpoint auction...

    Things to consider for those forum members buying their first pool cue

    A popular cue among new and cheap players is a $40 GSE cue at Amazon. It was reviewed 3500 times and it averaged 4.5 out of 5. YouTuber Average Joes Pool reviewed it last year and figured it had excessive wobble and played inconsistently. He figured the shaft was fiberglass outside and wood...

    Things to consider for those forum members buying their first pool cue

    I agree that I could not easily tell where weight is added along the length of a cue stick if I could only rely on the balance point of the cue. I disagree that I could not tell a difference in how the cue would feel in my hand. Let me give an example where I easily could tell whether the cues...
