    What cues would you buy?

    My building bought some Aska brand cues for our table and they hit surprisingly well. They're an import brand and looks like you can get 4-6 for $200-$300. I can play fine with them when I'm too lazy to lug my case downstairs.

    Does anyone know Wayne Yates from Mechanicville, VA

    This is what I was getting it, but sounds like PayPal can get the money from you even if already withdrawn.

    Does anyone know Wayne Yates from Mechanicville, VA

    Sorry to hear Jay. Were the funds from the sale still in your PayPal account when they refunded this guy? I'm aware of this type of scam and luckily it hasn't hit me yet.

    ✦ Richard Black Shanin 2 – Special Edition Custom Cue

    I will vouch for this seller also. I bought a cue from him last year, and it shipped from Europe via DHL and arrived faster than some recent USPS deliveries. He communicated very well the whole way.

    Jeff Dolezal Recognition Award

    Some good recognition for a good guy. I recall playing Jeff in the first league I ever joined around 2001. He was always a class guy whenever I was around him. https://www.azbilliards.com/jeffrey-dolezal-honored-with-bca-presidents-award/

    SVB vs Josh Filler announced for Feb 6th at NYC's Amsterdam Billiards

    Same here, nice old school 9 ball with 1 on the spot and looser pockets. Either of those guys could probably bust a 6 pack at any point once they got going.

    Danny Tibbitts inducted into the International Cuemakers Hall Of Fame

    Was Danny a pool player before making cues? I heard he is a strong player.

    Keith Josey Merry Widow

    Doesn't seem like an exorbitant asking price with the extension, and assuming the shaft is full and new to lightly played, and the butt is straight and damage free. Wrap looks like leather? That's an upgrade over linen cost-wise.

    Hayden Ernst 14 Years of age...Straight shooter

    Impressive playing for sure. He looks quite tall, maybe six foot or more. I wonder how much taller he'll get.

    History of Schon

    Yep...the German is too hard to pronounce for us Americans and the umlaut is not used in English, so "SHAWN' is what sticks.

    Custom Cue Prices Today

    I agree with this regarding eBay. My point was specific to the Facebook cue sites, which are "free" like this site is.

    Custom Cue Prices Today

    More in the used market area, I think Facebook sites have driven up asking prices heavily. It's a much wider audience and with generally less knowledge than this place. I've seen cues listed there for say $1k which may fetch $750 or so here. But, we rarely see final sale prices, so there's...

    2026 WNT Ranking event- Chinese Taipei Open, 8-11 Jan2026, Winner $30K

    Watching FSR vs Naulanan and it looks like FSR is sporting black Nike flip flops as footwear. Just pair some white socks with them and fit right in at this year's Florida Open!

    Mizerak Cues

    One of those guys who you just have a mental image of playing with a classic 4 point steel joint maple front cue. Straight pool background, East Coast native.

    Shaft suggestions

    Hmmm....well my WX Alpha shaft fits nicely on several radial butts which are the real deal. I do know radial shafts will not fit on Mezz's wavy thread.

    Shaft suggestions

    If you can tolerate high stiffness, the Mezz alpha shafts are about as stiff as it gets. I think they are stock at 12.8mm. They are not the lowest deflection shafts in the Mezz line. Their Wavy thread should fit most Radial pinned butts.

    chat GPT ranks difficulty level of various cue sports

    That's a good summary. And what exactly is American pool? 9 ball only? Are one pocket and 14.1 factoring in? I wouldn't think so but stirring thought on those rankings.

    First-Rate transaction with Jack Boy

    I hope this is all legit but the gushing nature seems a little much. Is this your first cue deal here after 15 years? "Jackboy: He PP me the money"
