Good excuse as any...

You apparently know him, and certainly far better than I. I only met him about 10 years ago.
Are you local to the Philly area?

No...Super Billiards junkie....didn't miss him last year!

I bought a cue with a Sniper tip for my league adventures in 2024. I took one look at that tip and thought to myself, "I can't wait to cut that off and install Triangle tips until I find one I like..." Just like I did in 2007, before I quit playing... After 16-20 hours a week of league/practice/tournament play that Sniper lasted for almost a year. Minimal maintenance, zero mushroom, and great performance for a medium/soft tip.

I would need to install 2-3 solid leather tips minimum, downtime, cost, etc for a year of play...So it would it would cost me $46-$69 vs $40...if I was lucky enough to pay your local prices.

No particular disagreement. That being said, you've essentially just eliminated professional sports in it's entirety.

Maybe that is why I am not a sports fan {Excepting:: F1 racing, Australian Power Boat Racing, and golf}
I do not watch: {football, baseball, hockey, soccer, basketball, ...}

Just wondering here.

When they do release the GC7 with drop pockets will they be the same rubber type pockets that Gold Crowns in the past have used? That was always one of the cool features of my Gold Crown IV, listening to the balls fall into those rubber pockets and the sound of that.

No I was not a top player of that time just a good shortstop that played 14.1 pretty good.
I had a good day and ran a few racks for the win,thats all.
For those that knew Neptune Joe Frady's speed I played him 9 ball getting the 8 and we battled pretty good.
Joe played me 100 to 80 in 14.1.

You played pretty good. Neptune Joe was an A speed player!

Bill built this for me a couple years back for my personal collection... now I am downsizing.

It has only been test hit...

This Cue is spectacular in person. Brian.
