Don't have time to decode these model numbers right now. Let's re-attack this subject in a few years when you're ready to order with Stephen. Until then, enjoy that new Joss cue!

multiples times.

I have an "Action" Break/Jump that works as good as anything and like $100. The break and jump shot is 90% technique. Edited to add: I love Joss cues so I'm sure it's a great product.

Order it now. These things take a while (but worth the wait). I waited 16 years for a Southwest...I can, happily, wait a year or more for a JOSS.

Stephen is working on a P-18 for me now. He has to start from scratch, and is going to tweak the design a bit to distinguish it from the original and make it a 1/1 for me. Forearm drawings in work.

Yeah, I think I said in an earlier post Efren has a unique rhythm to his practice strokes and follow through with no pronounced pause. And his approach is very consistent/repetitive.

Please don't rely on professional pool players for your science.

I am a feel player. The hit and feel is very important to me. Every cue deflects different. Adjusting for it isn’t a big deal if your fundamentals are good and consistent. With that said, I like the shaft. I might get one for my Joss.

Trying the Centro today. It’s on the left cue. It’s not bad….but there is nothing like that Joss hit, and the shaft on the Joss was especially tapered for me by Stephen Janes.

I think it feels great! I do like the other two just as well. I could be satisfied with any of those three I mentioned.

No. Predator Victory or Kamui Brown Medium. I also don't mind the tip Meucci puts on their shafts.

Looking at footage of Lassiter, Mosconi, and Crane (and I need to re-check youtube) but I don't think any of them had a pause. Neither did Allen Hopkins.

Tease...

I've seen good players who slow down their "back and forth" immensely in both timing and distance as they pin point that cue ball address, but never completely STOP. A good player I can think of who doesn't pause is Kim Davenport. I love watching his approach when in dead punch.

Showoff!

Is the "pause" necessary in shot execution to be a good player? Pause at the cue ball? Or, Pause when the cue ball is pulled back into your bridge (before transitioning through the cue ball) - ala Buddy Hall? I've seen some phenomenal players who had zero pause. They may slow down their...

I've owned MANY Schon cues...from Runde on, and none were TIGHT in the last few screws. They were all perfect.

I learned a lot about selling cues on this forum. I joined in 2003 when I was a 24 year old kid. I remember selling a cue to an experienced cue collector/esteemed member here very early on and gave him a half-a$$ description of the cue (not NEARLY descriptive enough) I was selling. He called and...

I downsized my collection, now collecting only very specific JOSS cues. I'm trying to be discerning. Right now I only want mid-80s to early 90s, fancier, floating point JOSS cues. Those were always my favorite. I can remember looking at JOSS CUE catalogs as a kid, and wanting some of the fancier...

Those veneers!! Now I need to find an old school 4 point JOSS to add to my group.
