New aiming system.

[Blue Hog ridr]

With all the recent threads re different aiming systems lately, heres something new, or maybe old and its so simple, all of us completely over looked the obvious.
Read the ad and see if you can find what gave me one of my daily chuckles.

Actually there was more than one thing that made me spit beer on my keyboard.

And of course I had to ask the seller a question.

I'm kinda new to pool and I can't seem to figure out which part of the stick hits the ball so I don't know what part needs to be replaced.
Thanks for your help."

With those circles on it, I was sure it was a Rambow, but with the golf club wrap, it also might be a Palmer. Arnold Palmer that is.

That's funny!!!

Actually there is someone around who does offer cues that are marked for aiming. I am NOT KIDDING.

This person showed me their product at the BCA Expo in Charlotte. It was marked up for aiming and for making kick and bank shot if I recall correctly. It worked when he used it but I could not get the hang of it in the few minutes that I tried it. I didn't have time to do more with it and I don't think we ever saw him or that product again.

some people are such dummies!

I can't believe anybody thought the rings were for aiming. Anybody that knows anything knows that is what the points are for! I bought a butterfly cue three months ago, haven't made a ball since then.

Butterfly cues are terrific for shooting wing shots.
....although they may cause a hurricane in the Solomon Islands.

That's because you're not a butterfly, Hu. Get small, sprout some wings, everything will be alright.:thumbup:

That is always what I thought. I had one cue where the points didn't exactly line up and the cue maker told me that I was supposed to use the short point for short shots and the longest point for the longer shots and the others for anything in between.
