Had to spawn another shaft

[Sealegs50]

I knew a guy that had a Schmelke Cue with screw on tips. He used it like a hustle. He would change tips during a game to seem like a putz then he would dominate the table. Worked really well for him

I replaced the aluminum cue with a cue that had a pine shaft. Not much better than the aluminum.

I figure that the next fads in cue shafts will be either aluminum or pine claiming that they are Ultra LD. My old cue will probably be worth thousands and I’ll be stuck playing with my Szamboti and Schick shafts.

Trying a pair of neodymiums for a chalk holder. One attached to the chalk, the other in my pocket.

F. Gotta learn to jump to keep up...

Econo 3pc jump/break. Nice linen wrap. Funky zebra.

Not sure about keeping the Phenolic marble tip

I always enjoyed doing my own work. But these days, at 63, not so much. Lol

Sweet.

Bye bye phenolic.
Ultraskin HH just installed by my local cue-meister. Dime shape for now.

Gifted a round of the v10.

Applied after stripping my tip of previous chalk. Yet to play with it.

Mostly using the Jacoby.

When I do use it... Interesting how the Z shaft color looks odd, thick, and feels like rough lumber compared to the carbon shaft.

(Sarcasm)
What a ripoff! My v10 only lasted 11 months of abuse.

Dig my new case. They call it a 3x6. Glad I only need to carry 2x3. Or 2x4.

Seems way too tight with 3 butts - crammed and things start rubbing together.

Breaker candy.

I’ve really enjoyed your posts, sharing your journey in catching up with the explosion of carbon fiber shafts, $25 chalks, and extensions. As an insane collector, i have entirely too many of all of these. I don’t recall seeing a jump cue in your photos.

Not that I’m complaining, but did you mean to put the BLT and cat photos on some other site like Facebook maybe? Food and pets are half my posts.

Keep the cat and the BLT off the pool table. Ask me how I know.
