very nice Hello Mason: Very nice cues! I love 1,2,4,6 & 10! :-) I still play with my MasonH cue (cambodian rosewood with brazilwood handle). It is just a nice hitting cue. I hope you come back to cue building, because you just do a great job. All the best Michael

Great read Hello Dennis: Thanks a lot for this nice report! It is really good to hear what all of you are doing. Great tournament by junior! Good to hear that Ron finally joined. I tried long enough to convince him and I'm sure he will enjoy it. Good luck to Bobby for his new shop. I wish him...

My Mason Houghland cue Hello: I picked up a very nice cue from Mason Houghland. The cue was listed as: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=174793 The pictures don't do the beautiful woods used any justice. It is MUCH nicer in person and if we ever get nice weather again here in...

Maybe this thread should be trasferred to the Main Forum This is a great idea! However, I believe that people should respect the idea to gain NEW members to the forum. I also believe that this thread should be transferred to the main forum. This way it will get more exposure. Best Michael

Souquet & Ortmann were great Juniors already Hi Dennis: I'm not sure why the US is not using a system like this. Everybody else seems too. Maybe the distances? But, this is mainly a question of sports philosophies. Too difficult for my limited knowledge. However, I believe the system was...

part of it is system induced Hi: I believe that one reason for maybe a higher straight pool awareness in Europe comes from the league play system. Like in all sports in Europe you have a national organization sanctioning the sport (of pool in this case). <they incorporated a system that allows...

Maybe the time difference isn't always too bad. I think I had a head start :) and got a 32 today! Still trying to get my age though! Best Michael

right guess! Hello Jamie: You are right. Andy made this beautiful cue. I picked it up last week and I'm really happy with the way it came out. I love the windows and the ring work. Best Michael

my humble window cues Well, my picture taking stinks, but here are my favorites players. http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff195/msprung/cues/windows/Windows032_cropped_small.jpg http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff195/msprung/cues/windows/Windows037_cropped_small.jpg...

Hello Everybody: I have a question concerning the I2 shaft from McDermott. My friend wants to have his shaft turned down quiet a bit. Maybe 11.5mm or so. Is it safe to go so small or is it coming close to the carbon inserts? Thank you Michael

very nice Hello Bryan: I think these cues are very nice! I like the wood selection! :) But why do you break the symmetry with the dark butt cap on the 3rd cue? Best curiousofpool

CueCaps PM Alton. His name here is CueCaps and I'm sure he can do it. Best Michael

Welcome! Hello Ricky: Welcome to AZB! You arrived at the best forum with your first post!:D Best Michael

Hello Guys: I found this thread today in the German Billiard Forum. They have a thread (competition) going about the most curious break shots. http://www.billard-aktuell.de/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=16086&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=sch%F6n&start=0 Just try to find the...

Tough one Hello Dennis: This is not as easy as it look on video. I'm still not happy with my tries. Best Michael

nice runs Hello Dennis: It was nice to see you and Jr. play. He really looks loose. I believe you did quiet well in the two runs, but I thought that you played the early balls of the 2nd run to lazy after your great (:wink: ) break shot. Basically all balls are open and only the 2 balls near...

Let my try this differently Hello Again: I have thought a bit more about this and I'll try it differently. I guess my main question is the following: How much of a handicap is it to have to break in straight pool on the professional level? Is it a rack a balls, less or more in a race to 150...

Hello Guys: Sadly, I never had the chance to watch a big straight pool tournament, but looking at straight pool matches on DVD made me wonder if the standard break shot is the right opening for professional play (only on this level). It seems to me that the second player almost always has a...
