Great looking cue and joint protectors
Seconded. Even the Wizard of Oz show is super cool. Best seats at the Sphere are the middle section (200s)See who's at the Sphere when you are there. It's the most incredible entertainment venue I've ever been in.
Efren is the GOAT of one-pocket. IMO, better than anyone who ever played. But in the 80’s and most of the 90’s, he wasn’t yet. That was the question. He was still learning the game in the early to mid 90’s and didn’t play it for most of the 80’s.unfortunately theres not many good videos of him
Grady Always said that Efren was the best in that time and of anytime. He also told me that for the Money it was Efern, Bugs and Cliff.
I liked Grady and he said on video that Varner was to conservative to beat him.
Theres NO WAY Grady, Varner or Hopkins could beat Bugs, Efren or Cliff, any of them for the Cash and he always said it.
The Orleans and 5 or 6 others are on that side of the highway.
Pretty sure his trip isn't geared around griffs anyway
Your posts are so enjoyable I haven't had this much fun since the hogs ate my little brother at the Nebraska State Fair in 1963!AE Ebony on Ebony 4 points
This is one of those cues that would stand out in any collection!
I designed it and every single material and detail in the cue was carefuly chosen by me. We were working on all the details for about a month, checking the sketches and discussing everything before we were fully satisfied and the build could start.
Joint Protectors were made by Alton Takata and they are a piece of art itself!
It has 3 veneers in blue, black and blue, 5/16x14 pin and 2 13 mm shafts with 1" micarta ferrule on one shaft and 1" LBM ferrule on the other shaft.
All AE cues that I had were built perfecty and craftsmandship is always flawless.
Bruce and Jeff always treated me with respect and i always had big appreciation for their work!
Enjoy the pics!![]()
As a player in that 650-750 range. I was signed up and paid for entry to Mcdermott open. 7 hours away. I play as many of the bigger tournaments I can just to play better players. Def stinks.
Thanks for the insights. I saw Bugs play bank pool, but never one pocket.
Efren was NOT the best one pocket player in the 80’s and 90’s. From the pro ranks, Hopkins, Varner, Matthews would be at the top. Mizerak was good one pocket player. Fusco and Diliberto would also have to be mentioned, as would Sigel. Not as well known for one pocket moves, but Grady would always say that Sigel didn’t know a thing about one pocket, but his shot making skills and 14.1 skills had him winning a few pro tournaments when there was hardly any tournaments. Grady would say that Sigel could shoot an 8-out shooting out of a paper bag.
The gambling crowd would bet on Ronnie Allen, Shorty Johnson, Steve Cook, Strawberry, Bugs, etc.
I have great ones yesYou really have the who's who of cue craftsmanship.
