...if you happen to win,,,,you WILL get paid.
I use my old Huebler (only cue I owned till I bought a break cue) with le pro tip and silver cup.
Now I can blame loss on not spending thousands on equipment or not spending hundreds on practice time at the hall
It does make wins against the guy with the 5000$ cue, cf shaft, and tip that cost more than I spend eating every week coated in 20$ chalk feel all the sweeter

Now that you mention cue tip chalk. Is "Pre-Flag" Master really any better than "Post-Flag" Master? Is it worth the money and the redass to get it? Does is improve your game?
I'm a different player with "Magic Chalk" type thing? If I were a chalk snob...if push came to shove, I'd probably go with one of those little fancy 32$ a pop Super Samara pieces of chalk from Japan.
I was stationed in Japan for three years, it changed my game :yeah:

Tweeten swears up and down that pre-flag and post-flag Master chalk is 100% the same formula. Locals in my area swear that post-flag Master chalk is more dry and noticeably flakey. Hard to say if that affects miscuing or is just visual. Whether true or urban legend, I consider chalk a throwaway commodity and wouldn’t bother chasing an out-of-production version of any of it.

I believe that Tweeten still makes Master chalk without the flag on the wrapper.
I recall that a while back someone asked Tweeten management if there was any difference in the chalk composition pre-flag vs flag and they said no difference. IIRC they said they added the flag to the wrapper as a display of patriotism following 9-11.
No idea if they still produce the no-flag wrappers.

Skip said that years ago. Rumor got out(i bit for a while) that pre-flag had mercury or plutonium or some shit that made it stick together better. Pure bs. I sent Skip a msg. and he told me the 9/11 story. I haven't seen new Master without flag in years. BTW, if you like Tweeten chalk try BlueDiamond. They make it special for Longoni. Really good at a decent price.

Gonna have to change that saying now...
You don't climb a mountain in flip flops...
But if you don't use a $30 piece of chalk, they will see that you're just a pretender.
you can however hide a cheap piece of chalk in a 100 dollar pocket chalker holder and no ones none the wiser
so there you have it
Absolutely correct, take away their fancy cues and those pros couldn't play a lick.
I don't want here about SVB, I have it on good authority that his cue is really a
expensive cue painted to look like a cue tech. You want to be good and have friends
this is the way.

I really hope you're joking. Is it April 1st?
To me it’s what I find that I like and adjust to. So far I’ve had 2 cues I’ve used predominantly, including to break. A Southwest for my first go around of playing. Which incidentally I sold it because I blamed a slump on it when in reality it was a hand injury. I never liked the cue I replaced it with. I then walked away for almost a decade.
I’m now playing with a Josey sneaky that I’ve become very comfortable with. I have another cue that I can get action out of easier than the Josey but I stick with the Josey because I like it. So for me it’s what I like more than cost. Although I have been eyeing up another cue that’s in another price category than the Josey. I do know I like flat faced big pin cues for the most part.

Might even be able to steal a cool ride in the parking lot too.:smile::smile:
I like powdet
I love it. I dump a whole pile in my hands clap them together and make a big white cloud. After a short time it's hard to find the cue ball. If it bothers my opponent that's all the better. A glove? Looks like a Michael Jackson wantobe.

Let's Keep the retired Custom Cue builders Great Again. Where is Bill Stroud? :thumbup:
Who actually invented Ferrurle-less cues? You must have "stole" that idea from someone?
Why aren't any of the top pros' playing with Ferrurle-less cues these days or "ever" for that matter?
