    Lowest deflection kielwood

    Maybe that is why Lucasi cores their Kielwood shafts with Carbon Fiber.

    Lowest deflection kielwood

    Justin Bergman seems to like his Bob Danielson Kielwood shaft a lot, because he has been using it for a long time. Take a gamble, and just order one directly from BD. I imagine they are pretty expensive though. I never see them for sale online though,on the used market, so I assume that means...

    Yeah, me too. Those wood joint cues looked so cool, I thought. Biggest joint pin I ever seen. Always imagined that they probably hit super solid.

    cheap carbon fiber shaft

    There is this highly rated seller on ebay, who auctions off these flawed Jacoby Black Seconds, with a cheap butt. They usually sell for pretty cheap. This one for example is ending on Sunday, and will probably sell for under $200...

    Do the best players you know have OCD or perfectionistic qualities moreso than the average person??

    Hi, I do not understand the slug rack thing. This was 9 ball? What balls were touching, and which ones were not? Just really curious. Thanks.

    Yeah, anyone that takes 6 hours to rack the balls is OCD.

    cheap carbon fiber shaft

    I am of the belief, and feeling that when it comes to Carbon fiber shafts, you really get what you pay for. For example, you could get a full CRICAL Carbon Fiber cue for about $120, on Amazon, but I would be shocked if it would be something that I would personally enjoy playing with. So far...

    Archer was seemingly picking up lint that was not even there, lol. I remember thinking, wtf is he picking at?

    Do the best players you know have OCD or perfectionistic qualities moreso than the average person??

    OCD, as in chalking their tip 10 times before each shot? One player comes to mind. Jonathan Hennessee. Johnny Archer, with his picking at invisible lent on the cloth. That might be OCD too. A lot of very strong players might have some form of OCD.

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Okay, I understand. Thanks a lot for the info. I will keep that in mind in the future. If it is vintage, and was low quality, then I guess the odds of the cue being warped, in both the butt and the shaft are high.

    Info on Adam cue model AA-4 - age, value

    Hi, if you decide to auction these cues off, I would space the auctions out, with at least 5 day auctions, and only do 1 at a time, if they are identical. Just don't overcrowd the market too much with cues. They might sell for a lot less money if you just put them all up for auction at the same...

    Info on Adam cue model AA-4 - age, value

    Wow, I never seen an Adam cue with the logo where it is located, up near the joint collar. Looks like it was made in the South West Style, with the 3/8x11 joint pin, and the SW Style ringwork, and SW Style butt sleeve. Everything looks SW Style, other then the 8 Points. I got nothing, but very...

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Thanks. So, the BEM points are nothing special? It was the points that really caught my attention. Sounds like they are nothing special though. I love cues that have nicely figured woods in them. Are points like that something you tend to see on really cheap cues? I feel like such a fool, lol...

    Yeah, I agree. Be great if it is a nice hitting cue.

    Wood vs carbon fiber shafts for top pros - I went through the Fargo top 100 to see who uses what

    Probably because Lambros shafts only work on his own cues, and they might not all be interchangeable with each other. He has had at least 3 different Ultra joints over the years. Very unique piloted joints that he invented, and patented, possibly.

    Thanks a lot for your replies, and for looking into it. I hope it is not some really low quality garbage import. Thanks again.

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Oh, I have no idea. I do not have the cue yet. I just hope it is not garbage. The forearm really made me think it is a quality cue though. That figure in the BEM Points, if that even means anything, lol. The veneers look nice to me too. And, the wood that the points go into looks nice to me. I...

    Help with thoughts about pool cue? Possibly identify who made it?

    Thanks. Lol, my 1st thought was, the butt sleeve looks cheap, but the forearm looks nice. Not sure what to think of the wrap though. And, the Yellow ferrule looked interesting to me too. I mainly just thought the forearm looked really nice though. The BEM points, and veneers, and the wood that...

    Wood vs carbon fiber shafts for top pros - I went through the Fargo top 100 to see who uses what

    Okay, yeah, good point. Josh Filler, for example was switching between his REVO and a 314-3 shaft, iirc. He liked the 314-3 better there for awhile.
