These numbers sound about right to me. There are a couple young men here in Oregon who work hard and put in the time that have been playing around 5 years total. One is a 619 the other a 639 and both were in the 500s within 12-18 months of picking up a cue.

The ceiling is the thing. Starting in your 20s sadly is a bit late to ever be more than this without the natural talent few have. Neither one of these will ever likely be 700 players. Maybe not even 650.

Well, have we met? We did play one event down there on the coast. 🤔
That outline pretty much covers my Bio. Started similar and attained 620 to 630. Now at uh 74.625 my number is so low I don't look it up anymore. 😉

OH NO!
IT AIN'T FAIR
ooops the political background noise. 😉
Thought of the day? 🤷‍♂️ Slow down.
"I can't beat your slow game. " Is a favorite concession at the handshake. I had given a lesson. At a bargain price compared to what the young road player was making on the road.
Pretty sure he got his money's worth. 🤷‍♂️ Well if he was paying attention. 🤷‍♂️

Lisa is Gone

VarmintKong
Hey Lou,
It’s hard to maintain relationships. If we get lucky we have a few where no matter the distance of space and time the quality of the friendship is never questioned.

I’m sorry you weren’t able to reconnect with Lisa. She is lucky to have a friend that ,no matter how far apart the separation, would remember her so fondly and could so eloquently share such wonderful memories.

Yes. That’s on the one pocket match with Deliberto. In the middle there is an instructional by him and it’s pretty good. That’s where he says it. (On YouTube available video at least).

Joss II

MSK said:
The Joss II is not an original Joss cue. It is made in China with overlay designs and a genuine Irish linen wrap. Both the Shaft and Butt are made from Hard Rock Maple for a medium feel when striking the cue ball. Plenty of nice rings work from the butt cap to the shaf joint. The more experienced player will probably want to change the tip. All in all, a good cue for around $180.00 USD or less (may be used). They are not on my website yet, but I do carry them in my Tapa area store. Any questions, call Michael at 813-383-8401 and visit www.CustomizedPoolCues.com - see the specials.

i think it is VERY MISLEADING to market a knock off with a similar name that may confuse the buyer and the buyer not realize its not the original brand . UNLESS YOU CLEARLY STATE ON YOUR WEBSITE ....THIS IS NOT A JOSS CUE
i also think using the original brands reputation which was hard earned over many years and misleading buyers by using a similar name is a disgrace.
are you the guy who bought cue components and said you were not going to continue the knock off tradition?
