Does anyone remember the piloted chamfered pins/inserts Porper used to offer years ago! Used to own a Porper jump/break. Made from tiger maple, including the shaft. Remember it as being the stiffest hitting cue I've ever played with. Sorry I ever sold that cue for $125. Would love to get it back...

The Search function sucks. But glad you where able to find the info you where looking for. Not all small towns offer the privilege of a billiard room to practice in. Many players have to make do with what's available, and often that's a bar box at the local bar. After moving from a big city to...

You mentioned playing "at the bar" in the title of the thread. Depending on the bar, there may be some ridicule or expectations towards one bringing in your own cue, especially a fancy cue with multiple veneers & inlays. A fancy cue may put some off if there's wagers involved, ie 3 ball or a...

Get yourself a good-quality sneaky-pete with a quality tip. Like any other sport becoming accustomed to your own equipment, whether it be a baseball glove or a set of golf clubs, helps a lot. However, an instructor/friend told me years ago that with proper shot selection you should be able to...

Enjoyed watching a few of these matches. Thank you. May I ask for comments and opinions on the plastic templates laid on the table instead of using a traditional rack? Been out of the game for a while and these templates are new to me? It appeared the templates where also numbered to ensure the...

Picked this set up at the post office a couple weeks ago, and was finally able to get out and hit a few balls. The cues and workmanship are absolutely outstanding. As often stated... the pictures really don't do these cues justice. And they play superb!!! Love the hit on both cues!! My first set...

What's the length?? King-size or 100’s??

Ahh... ping pong is considered a sport isn't??? Requires using a wooden instrument to strike a ball for an anticipated result. Kinda like tennis and golf. Could probably include Crochet too but I don't know if that's considered a “sport” either. Now let's take it up a notch and try a sport...

Played scotch-doubles 8-ball with a couple good friends last night. Smoked a Rocky Patel The Edge Sumatra while the Pens game was on (damn that’s one good cigar). Looking forward to football this Sunday.

I see it’s one of those ferrule-less shafts too. What’s the tip size??? About 1300mm???
