    Questions about Mcdermott cues

    I love Mcdermott cues, I have a D-25 that I bought in the late 80's that is an amazing cue. I also have owned a few Schon's and although they feel different they both hit really great. I would recommend both. Never had a Joss, but they have a great following. If you can't make a ball with a...

    Zero-X Billiards response to allegations made by Max Eberle, Jimmy Reid and others.

    Well, I haven't seen Jimmy Reid's videos, but I have seen the Zero-x videos and really liked them. Lots of haters on here. I guess technically, everyone that draws a cue ball is copying the first guy who drew a cue ball. So many people on here want to jump on the "America" bandwagon...Well...

    Pool dvds?

    I play pool daily and love watching videos on pool. Some videos I get nothing out of, like match play, but really enjoy. Then there are the instructional videos, some good and some have nothing to offer. Over the years I have picked up some fundamentals, ways to get position that I have not...

    ? about a break cue selection

    A simple answer is no. Everyone suffers from a " grass is greener on the other side of the fence" once in a while, but you just need to build more confidence in what you have. I used to break with Predator BK2 and it hit fine, I don't have experience with the BK3. I've switch to a Billiard...

    how to play on a Diamond barbox...

    Diamonds and valleys are night and day apart. I really enjoy the diamond tables, if you play decent, you will definitely like them better than valley tables. As far as adjusting your game, I would not try to adjust, just play. In my experience, adjustments sometime lead to creating problems. I...

    JB stoops to new lows

    I for one love JB cases, not bashing any others, but I have owned a couple and I'm thinking about getting another one pretty soon. The quality compared to the price is a winner for me.

    Triangle vs. Layered Tips...

    I'm currently shooting Triangle tips and I'm shooting better than I ever have. I'm really liking them and don't think I am gonna try anything else in the near future. I used to shoot Elk Master tips, but I had to "shoot them in" to get them to where I liked them. I have tried Moori, Talisman...

    Going from 9-footers to barboxes

    I normally play on 9' tables ( Brunswick and Diamond ) but a couple days a week I practice on 7' diamond tables and I think they play fantastic. I think they reward better play when compared to Valley tables, but that's what makes them nice. I don't really change my game at all, for me they play...

    Paypal gift option

    I've been using PayPal for a long time now and it makes buying and selling easy, but I never use "gift" for purchases. If things ever go wrong, it's all on you.

    It's HISTORY

    That's an awesome case! I love the size, unfortunately for guys like me, I carry so much stuff I "think" I need it wouldn't work. Although I really aspire to use a case like that. Really simplistic and beautiful.

    Brent Summers Jump/Break/Shoot

    I have a cue made by Brent Summers that is just amazing. It's a conversion from an old Brunswick house cue. First, the look, the finish, execution all excellent. It looks to be Macassar ebony, he added bacote at the butt end with a Hoppe ring. It has beautiful ring work that he makes himself...

    question about learning to jump.

    Plenty videos on YouTube for jumping. Try not hitting as hard, lots of people think you have to kill it, but back off the power a little.

    Dominiak Dominator2 shaft

    I have a Dominiak Dominator2 shaft for sale. It has maybe 3 or 4 weeks of shooting on it. It's in great condition, has a Kamui soft tip also in great shape. It came with Dominiak WD 1090 cue I bought from billiards warehouse. I'm not using it, so if any Dominiak fans would like an extra shaft...
