Cool forum!
I started playing pool as a little kid on a ratty old table that we kept level with playing cards. Just out of high school in 87, I started working at a small local pool hall in early 88 for something to do, strictly 9 foot tables.
Looking back, I sure wish I would have figured out a way to buy some of the nicer sticks that used to be fairly common then. So many Joss, Schon, Richard Black, McDermott, Mali, Meucci... So much fun traveling in Oregon going to various pool halls, meeting people, getting sharked and learning a ton.
Unfortunately, as life moved along, so did my priorities and pool unfortunately had to take a backseat. It's always been a favorite pastime of mine. One which I wish I had never stopped playing. I've picked up my Meucci again for the first time in many years and I wish I could say after all these years it's like riding a bike
One big regret was passing up the opportunity to buy some of the nicer Schon and Joss cues that used to fill the display cases at several shops. I'm really hoping to find an older Schon or Joss from the late 80s and early 90s. Kind of a way to finally get something I couldn't ever afford back then.
So glad to find this forum! Thank you guys for keeping it alive in here!
