I think he made the right choice!
Meanwhile down in Texas It'ssss Time! for the Texas Open! I saw Woodard/Easton going strong in Jack and Jill 9ball, Gorst hanging out at a picnic table outside and TRex chillin' near the pro cut table. There was very young talent on the tables too. One kid looked 8 years old and was calling 4 and 5 rail shots. I met Spencer from Arizona who loved playing Texas One Shot. Good player, says he is a 500 fargo but plays above it. I gave him a ball to take back to AZ so he can show the game around with style. Anyone in town for the Open who wants to try out the game call me out! I'll be at Skinny's or Eddie's Tavern passing out swag and taking on challengers.

Private message if you want to set up a game.

From what I understand that's how Huebler made them. Terry can confirm or correct this. He's a good and helpful guy. I have dealt with him.

Cool

Anyway, back to the point of the thread, light break cue is working for me. Able to break nicely in each format with speed relative to the game played

Just got an email back from Steve Janes. He said absolutely recognizes those sticks. They were not made in the same year. The one is at least 1978 or 1979. The other one that you guys say was probably made by Bill Stroud. Is absolutely before 1975. So even though they were bought on the same day for two brothers. They were not made in 1979/1980.

And he says he'll recreate the logo on the one that's missing. He said he'll do it for free. But I'm going to send him some money anyway if he does it.. Would that hurt the value if Steve recreates the logo on the one that's missing? Or should I leave it as is?

Glad to hear that you got confirmation.
Ironically, I have a similar cue without the JOSS logo.
I haven’t spoken to Stephen yet, but was told that another clue of its maker was the 5/16-18 pin used by JOSS in the early 70’s.
