    GCIV Update

    If you play league/tournaments on Diamond tables, stick with Diamonds. Forget balls on the break, pro players make a ball about 50% of the time, the rest of us 5%-35%. So your opponent has the advantage most of the time after you break. Play second ball break or the cut break like the Chinese 8...

    Why do so many cue makers start with blanks made by someone else when building full splice cues?

    I think building full splice blacks is tricky and time consuming, just makes sense to buy 'em rather than make 'em for a one man operation.

    What beginner pool tip do you wish you learned sooner?

    stick with one stick, basically all cues play the same after you use them a couple weeks :)

    Do I really NEED a $10k table?

    if you play league or tournaments, buy what they play on if you are serious, other wise for fun buy a old 9 ft GC.

    Falcon Cue

    Maybe a collector pays up, but for intrinsic value 200-400. The cue world has moved on. CF shafts, Predator etc. $1900 in 1991 ?? That's like $10,000 in today's dollars. I can't imagine players lined up to buy it.. Good Luck.

    Have you ever attempted to play with a very warped pool cue, and did it bother you, and were you able to pot balls with it consistently?

    Yes, on a trip to Australia, played with a very crooked snooker house cue and it really didn't matter. I think it's more in our heads than in actual playing that crooked is bad. So if it's a tiny credit card roll, ignore it.
