    If you could afford any cue makers cue who's cue would you buy for your everyday cue

    It would have to be what I'm shooting with now, a Doug Patrick cue.

    How would you play this

    It seems like I'm the only one, but I would bank the 2 ball to the upper left hand corner. It's a shot that I'm pretty confident with if I'm familiar with the table. Also if I miss I will likely leave the 2 blocking that pocket.

    US Open 10 ball & 8 ball is Back!

    I feel like the real problem was brought up early in this thread. Pool is not promoted in a way that will catch the attention of people who do not play pool regularly. If I turn on ESPN late at night I'm very likely going to see a bunch of guys playing poker. Personally I have no...

    First cue I had Scrimshaw in!!

    I've had this cue for almost a week now and still haven't had a chance to go hit balls with it. I did take some practice strokes with it to see how it feels though. The weight and balance of it are perfect. I love the wrap on it. I like the way it feels and wish I had that on every...

    break cue weight

    I break with a 15 oz schmelke right now. I actually lose the cue ball a lot more with a heavier (19oz) cue.

    Places to play in San Antonio

    I'm looking for a good place to play in San Antonio, any information would be appreciated. My definition of a good place to play is a place that has a lot of 9ft tables (prefer Diamond or Brunswick) that are well taken care of. Thanks

    LD shaft in a sneaky question

    This is something I have also been cuious about. A partial is the only OB shaft I have seen without the collar. Would that still have the OB logo when a cue maker is finished matching it to the butt of my cue?

    cue maker questions

    I guess it's like a whole lot of other things now. One bad apple ruins the whole bunch. For whatever it may be worth some of us non cue makers enjoy reading this forum as a way to be informed consumers. There is no better way to learn than to sit down, shut up, and listen to those who have a...

    Shaft straightening

    I actually straightened one once on a cheap cue I bought a long time ago. I put the shaft on books with the high spot up, then put a towel over the high spot and an even amount of weight on the tails of the towel pulling down on the shaft. It took a few weeks of sitting there until it...

    Does your cue have a name?

    That's kinda funny because I'm having a cue made right now with Mjolnir as the basis for the design.

    Learned to jump today

    I do have a problem with jumping although it's a sort of strange one. I have no problems jumping when I'm using my regular playing cue. I have bought and practiced with two different jump cues and I can't make them work for me. I have been working on it hoping I would be able to jump balls a...

    Let's get a list of good pick-up lines

    I used to go practice shooting with my offhand until somebody came up to me with a cocky attitude.

    Huge price drop due to economy!

    That's a sharp looking cue. If I didn't have one in the works from you already I would be all over this.

    Cue finished for Poolg0d on here!

    Absolutely love this one. I'm generally not a fan of wrapless cues, but this one looks amazing.
