Do you prefer glue on tip or screw on tip?

im sorry to say, but if you dont know that a glue on tip is perferred to a screw on tip then you are new to the game IMO.

on the other hand you might play lights out....who knows :rolleyes:

Billiard is a game of many cultures... how am I to know every single details of the equipment people use.

The only universal aspect of billiard in my opinion is if you hit the cue ball at a certain speed with a certain type of english, no matter where you are in the world, no matter what you think is the best tip, no matter if you know what shoes Thorsten Hohmann wears, The cue ball will have the same reaction...

The game is about skills on the pool table it self, not antics and details outside of the cloth...
 
I have never seen a screw on tip in any bars, i have never tried one, i was asking because of that reason.
 
You got to have the right shoes

How is it false? the game of pool is something you learn by playing it...

Or do you actually think you will learn more by looking at youtube videos and learning about every single details of every possible things there is about pool outside of the aspect of actually playing the game on the table it self????

Slip-on for me

After many years of testing, I have come to prefer the slip-on type. Not the one pictured that slips onto the shaft tenon, but the type that slips completely over a full shaft. Any department store that carries pool equipment should have some.

This is a guaranteed attention-getter. People will be falling all over themselves to get to you if you play with a cue with one of these on it. It gets more action than removable weight washers.

The only problem is that I can't seem to find any that are large enough.;)

Goo-goo Ga-ga!!!:D :D :D

It is false because the cue ball will have different reaction depending on the equipment you are using and the table conditions even the humidity in the air. Yes my friend there is vast knowledge you have yet to learn.
Enjoy your quest.:)

It appears you didn't get what i was trying to say with limited words i have...

I was saying that pool is about learning the skill and the knowledge of the balls reaction and how to play the game comes with playing it, not thinking you are good because you know the urban terms.....

I probably still wasn't able to say what i wanted to say, even i have a hard time reading my own message...
