5280 Pool Cues are relatively new to the pool scene. The series was created in 2002 in Denver, Colorado, from which the height of the location gave the product its name. It has become a vastly growing company mostly in part of their sponsorship by one of the competitive gaming’s stars, Cory Deuel. Cory Deuel plays exclusively with 5280 pool cues. This alone would be enough to gain support by many, but the cues are also known for design. There are many different forms from new and eclectic to classic and simple. They have also created some design details to insured that he cues stand up for abuse. They created a new rubber butt with angles to avoid the problem of splitting. They have also designed a new seven layer pigskin tip known as the Everest tip that has gained great attention as well. They are an up and coming cue company to be on the lookout for to be really big in the near future.

Shooting pool involves more than just shooting billiard balls using one perfect style or making short simple shots. When playing pool the use of different shots will likely come in handy. To make combo shots will involve having more than one ball when playing the game. For example, one of the simple combination shots involves trying to pocket number 7 while the number 3 ball is directly ahead of number 7. One may decide to shoot number 3 into number 7. If number 3 goes into the pocket, it becomes an extra pot.

However, the aim is to pot ball number 7. To do this will require some knowledge and skill on shooting and aiming at billiard balls on a pool table. Keep the head down while maintaining a static elbow position. Once the position is set, the next thing is to decide if to hit a split is favorable. The split involves hitting the number 7 in a way that will also pot the number 3. In this situation, it is appropriate to relax and think, visualizing how number 3 is going to go. Since one cannot stretch and touch number seven directly, a new strategy called the bridge is used that gives the player more control over what happens.

While others claim this is a cheating move, it is however acceptable and thus, have no fear in using the bridge. The bridge is similar to knuckles. One can decide to shoot the ball over the number three ball and straight into number 7 or to go round and use the sides to bounce the ball into number 7. The bridge is formed by holding the stick with the thumb and then the hands around it. To make this move, the cue is placed in the middle of the bridge. This move however requires the player to remain extremely calm and have the right posture to make a shot without touching the number 3 below the cue stick.

Once set, just shoot the ball and hope for the perfect shot that will win the game. The strategy is applicable in many other situations.
