Not saying this is what you are experiencing but it might be.

I was hoping the cues would be so obviously made by George Balabushka that no LOA would be necessary to convince people. Well, fortunately, these were both authenticated and one comes with a hand written and signed letter from Larry Lisciotti

He certainly was a great player, however, I don't see any correlation between his and the riflemans style of play or stroke.

I likened him to Ralf Souquet. Similar bullet proof vibe.

With the years revealed, the East Coast clue, and the missing info in the COA descriptions, that pretty much narrowed it down to GB.

The original post was clever by not suggesting they were not GB, and at the same time allowing one to think they might not be.

Very cool!

Thanks for showing them off!

JL Chang had a beautiful stroke and seemed more into the action scene than the tournament scene. In those respects, he was the "Asian Buddy Hall."

Hi everyone,

Is anybody familiar with the playing characteristics of Sott Zachow cues?

Thanks

The Oneida WPA 8 Ball World Championship that was held 4th of July week suffered the same fate with male
announcers. They rambled, meandered, interviewed guests during which time they never commented on the match
underway. I could have done a better job and I don’t know much about announcing but I do know & understand pool.

It appears to be the 'Time Crystal' but who knows how hard. Did they say soft, medium, etc when you bought it? I'm convinced now they can't be 'burnished', in the traditional sense, because they are layers of (polyester?) 'microfiber' and some binder, probably polyurethane. Only Rhino can speak to that. I suppose you could get shiny finish on the sides by coating with some liquid acrylic but that would probably wear off quickly and/or look worse after use. I have them (#4, so MH I guess) on both my play shafts now and will report on them again at six months.

When I got it, it didn't say anything about the tip.
Now I see on their web site that it is Time Crystal but they don't say which hardness.
I guess it is possible to contact them and ask.

I like a little color sometimes but some commentators seem to forget they are covering a match when they start bullshitting they can't stop!

I prefer watching snooker these days. The play has gotten more like pool. Production values are almost always great. One of the most important things, the people in the booth realize a little silence and letting people enjoy the action isn't a bad thing! I really don't need a long winded explanation of how somebody is going to play a cosmos.
