    Jumping with your playing cue

    I watched Earl warming up at a tournament back in the early 80s, jumping with the Meucci on a Gold Crown, pocketing the ball and drawing the cue ball back about 5-6'. Crazy stuff!

    Get them before they're all sold out

    I was disappointed in mine, they only hold two balls and one shaft.

    Another stupid thread from me: golf is harder than pool

    Seems like I always play my best that first time out and think I'm really going to make some strides this year.... and then I go downhill from there 🙁 Maybe my expectations are lower and I'm not thinking too much during that first round. 🤷‍♂️

    Still in second spot??

    For sure, it was a lot of fun. I remember when I'd place something for sale and it would be on page 4 before I blinked.

    Another stupid thread from me: golf is harder than pool

    Oh I get that. I think golf is the hardest game I've ever played in my life.

    Another stupid thread from me: golf is harder than pool

    This is a great point. I didn't start playing golf until later in life, and I've often wondered if I had the opportunity to practice at the range or on a course every time I've screwed my cue together and hit balls, how good of a golfer would I be. The amount of practice hours is vastly...

    What’s the worst cue you’ve ever bought?

    Not necessarily true. Dents can be steamed out but I've seen table edge dings that can't.

    Chris Nitti cues hit and feedback

    Hit is so subjective, and depends on the tip, ferrule, etc. that you choose. My Nitti was a great playing cue with a nice crisp hit, and of course I don't have it anymore, but that's what I do. Hit similar to a Josey I had I suppose, but not as fat in the handle area. You won't find a better cue...

    I finally played Ultimate Pool

    I just watched SVB win $20K in this tourney and it was the most animated and happy I think I've ever seen him post-win. Said he loves 8-ball!

    Ultimate Pool USA 2026 Iowa

    I was just watching Chris Melling getting out from nowhere. I don't know how people can't enjoy that, bar table or not.

    Griff's 2026 US Open events

    Interesting to see Morra's last three matches were against a 508, a 471, and a 524 Fargo.

    AE cues?

    I've never owned one but I always thought that pretty much everything I saw come out of their shop looked great. I think they had excellent taste in designs and wood combos.

    Old viking cue, anyone have any imfo?

    Would help to see the rest of the cue but pretty sure it's a B400 from 1981. Retailed for $400

    SJM at the Las Vegas Open

    Right, that's my point. Without that and just trying to get by on tournament cashes she'd have been back home a long time ago.

    SJM at the Las Vegas Open

    Probably true, but you can't blame them when you consider they're traveling all over the country chasing her dream, and even if she places high, it would be rare that expenses were covered.

    Looking for a cue that plays like an old Falcon

    This, or a Joss, or a steel jointed Jacoby.

    fantastic 1p fluke shot

    That is one crazy twist it took coming back off that rail :oops:

    "In the middle"

    You're right, because nobody would ever bet on the Jets :giggle:
