Default Re: Pool Cues

see if anyone you know has a predator. they take some getting used to, but you can put a lot of english on the ball pretty easily, and it will stay in line much better on an off center hit than it would from a meucci and other older cues...

interesting. i had no idea they'd changed the sticks that much. i don't really hang around any pool players anymore though. it's been a really long time, and i was really only a reasonably good player but not more.

i had a couple of shots that were impressive though that i'd pull out of my ass once a night or so that would wow people into thinking i was better than i really was. after a scratch i could take the cue off the little corner of the side pocket and make a ball back at my end of the table w/o bringing it off the far rail. and i had a halfway decent masse. people get impressed by that even if you miss for some reason.

haha, yea that's great. they're impressed just to see the ball move. My record so far is masse'ing around 8 balls (ball in pocket, 8 lined up in a row off the short rail, cue on other side and arc it over and around. Have to hit it hard and just right....but it looks great when it works [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
