Whats the difference between your product and the gloves out there? 
ok i understand the gloveless glove, looks kinda fruity but hey it seems practical, but whats with the cue condoms? like what is the purpose of them? also, most players slide thier cues in the case tip first, so wouldn't it just get lost in the bottom of your case?
They don't fall apart. Your hand won't sweat through them. I'm a pool player and needed a glove because my hand sweats. I hated the gloves that were available. So out of my own need I invented this little "UnGlove". If you go to my website you will a bunch of photos and a list of the benefits. I hope it can help you to. Thank You for your interest!
Exactly what I was thinking.ioCross said:
Again I hated chalk all over my case so I invented this for myself. Cue Condom....CUTE!! I own 3 tube cases and my shafts slides in tip side up. I agree that there are some cases that won't work. I also found that when your waiting inbetween games and someone knocks your pool cue to the floor...well...the tip is protected with the Cue Tip Cover in place. It was an added bonus that I didn't plan on!
If someone knocked my cue to the floor, the tip would be the last part of the cue I'd be worried about.hllwnmagic said:
if you drop your cue on the floor, i think your tip/ferrule is going to be the least damaged not to mention the least of your worries.
also, i dont know why you slide your shafts in tip last, that means you have to turn your case upside down and shake, or if your tubes are huge still have to grab and pull, and even after all that you have to screw it on your cue, as opposed to just screwing the cue together in your case as you pull it out.

Your very correct...they have to be used tip side up. I have a moori med tip on my McDermott. It looks brand new...I've been shooting with it for almost 2 years. The protection factor was an added plus to this little product....but I still personally use it mainly to control the chalk residue from getting all over my case. Thanks for the comment!!
i dunno worrying about chalk marks on the inside tube of your cue case seems kind of anal.. its what its there for.
kinda like washing your butt before wiping with toilet paper cuz you don't want the toilet paper to get dirty.
the ungloves seem like a good idea, like i said it doesn't look completely hetrosexual, but then again gloves don't either.
if i had to choose between wearing gloves or that, i guess i'd prefer the unglove, just cuz it covers less of my hands.
then again, im sure a lot of people who use the glove use it so their hands dont get all blue on them so in that sense the unglove doesn't really work.

One of the things I like about complete gloved is that your hand is and does not get dirty. Would be nice to have like a lighter material on a glove.
Also would like to see a model that would cover the whole finger not part of it.
Good idea but not my cup of tea. Would like to see a whole finger model.

I think you should get in touch with Earl,he might be up for one of these. 
Thanks for your coments. The FingerSlides are for people who hate the glove. I think if everyone wanted one I'd be so busy that I'd have no time for pool. Now that would be a real shame, right? The open-ended fingers are the biggest plus about these for players who buy them. They like the fact that they can touch the cloth of the table when shooting. One of my first customers used to cut the tips of the fingers off his full-coverage glove. The glove ended up coming unsewn and looking real ratty!! He bought two, one for a spare. Although he admits he hasn't had to use the spare one yet. Hey thanks again......keep playing pool!!!!
Earl Strickland and if someone did that to Earl like the pigeon does it would be priceless.hllwnmagic said:
I bought a cheap glove once to try out. I found that the tips of my fingers were very important to producing a good bridge; with the glove on they wanted to slide on the cloth.
I think you have a good idea here. I took my cue, and made a closed bridge just to see if I could visualize how your product would work; the only thing I could fault (?) is that the cue seems to ride past the knuckle on my thumb, thus past the cloth, negating some of the benefit. Maybe you could make the thumb section a little longer? Your website doesn't show a picture of the bridge position, just a drawing. My advice is get a picture from several angles, showing open and closed bridges being used with your product.
I looked at your ebay auctions, and must admit I almost did the BIN; who knows, I may later.
Good luck with your product; if you want comment on it, you came to the right place!
