there are lots of reports about cracking ferrules and many videos that show replacing them. I have a Cyenergy that is only lightly played and it has a scratch on the ferrule that I have no idea how it happened, I take good and careful care of my equipment, I store it in a good case, I don't bang...

Nice!!

Might be a difference in the stiffness of the hit, but you’ll have to hit with all of them with the same shaft snd tip to see if there is a difference in the hit that might put one over the other for your personal preference. Balance point may also vary so you’ll need to find the right...

Well done and congratulations to Amoroto. Too bad that it collided with big tournament in the USA and most western big guns didn’t made it to Japan

Thank you. Here is the Revo 12.9 with the Mezz pad and a G2 medium

Probably the best bang for your buck, and you can get it on temo for less that a $100, I would have gotten one if I didn't already have a J/B cue and a separate jump break set. I also have a Fisher jump cue that used to be the hype when it came out that I don't use anymore.

The biggest advantage for dedicated jump cue with modern jump cues is that they are 3 piece cues and longer compared to the jump section of a jump-break cue. the longer cue is more comfortable on some shots. The shaft on a dedicated jump cue is different and usually thicker and stiffer which...

You don't have to do them all, but all are good to test deflection. The standard test needs a more scientific tools to see the results, it's very hard to see while shooting exactly which deviates more from the center and by how much. That's why I added the OB on the rail, because you can see...

I run a few tests 1. put a CB on the kitchen line frozen to the rail and shoot with side spin parallel to the rail and try to pocket the ball in the corner. see which shaft can still pocket the ball with higher speed. 2. place and OB on the center diamond on the short rail frozen, place the...

The Revo 12.9mm I was used to the 12.75 314 shafts even though some of them are down to around 12.5mm from cleaning and sanding over the years so I started with 12.5mm CF shafts as I was sure that it would feel closer to what I was used to, but the 12.9 feel much better in my hand (maybe using a...

After going the route of cheap CF shaft to start with and then getting some mid-priced shaft to end up with an expansive shaft, It would have just been a cheaper route to just go ahead and get the top brands more expansive shafts. I have 2 Rhinos, one never been used... never again. I have a...

There shouldn't be an issue gluing the Kamui clear tip directly to the plate, just like there isn't an issue with other shaft's plates or ferrule. The original Predator pad didn't sound great but my guess that is suffered from the same gluing issue, there are other reports of the original tip...

I think there is an issue with the material that the Predator Revo plate is made of. As I really didn't like the tip that I have installed (Kamui clear hard), I've decided to replace it and while at it, to install a pad as well. When I came to cut the tip off, I've placed the knife blade at the...

Nice Meucci, I like it

Enjoy it. Personally I have a hard time with decal cues, I can't see myself get one, maybe I'm just too old and remember the days that decal cues were cheap shitty cues that no serious player would touch...

I have this shaft for a few months now, I try to play with it here and there but I just can't get the hang of it. I like the taper for a 12.5mm shaft, it doesn't feel like a noodle in my hand like other shafts with 12.5mm tip but with a longer taper. I like how it looks, I don't like the tip I...

What if I want to switch shaft mid game? What if my hands sweat and I want to dry them? can't do it while I'm at the table.... Stop looking for excuses for not running out. if every little thing throws you off your game then start working on your mental game and stop thinking about fish with big...

So you asked and answered

With the WPA format of playing sets (like Tennis), I don’t see a problem with single elimination.

My experience is that people don’t appreciate free advice and don’t take the advisor that seriously when it’s free. They appreciate the advice and the advisor much more when they pay for it.
