The method may also include moving the cue stick to slide the outer surface of the adapter against at least one guide surface. Movement of the cue stick is in a direction that extends along the central longitudinal axis of the cue stick and a minimum distance between the central longitudinal axis of the cue stick, and the at least one guide surface in contact with the at least one portion of the outer surface of the adapter remains constant.
