Hello there, I am pretty new to the forum and have really only looked around in the forums. In Spring, 2007 I purchased a purpleheart p/j pool cue from Mr. Dieckman sight unseen after having a very pleasant phone conversation with him. I had thoroughly read through his website and knew I wanted a cue from him. When I got it, it had a 1906 Indian head penny in it and after talking to him found out he had done that because the coin was 100 years old when he had completed the cue (2006). He told me that he had only done that on two other cues and it looks like you have one of them. At the time of my original call to him, he said he had another finished cue he had made for Sang Lee that he would sell to me for the same price but that the butt/handle was made very small because that was how Mr. Lee wanted it. I opted for the p/h. I was wondering if yours is the one he was talking about. Anyway, I thought you might find my little story interesting. The cue looks cool btw.

sscott910, first, let me welcome you to AZ's Forum, second yes this cue is to Sang Lee specie Long Butt/Short Shaft, but the special taper of the butt and shaft is what Dieckman was referring to. Btw Drawman623 have the other Coin Cue.

Dieckman Coin Cue
Here is my first Dieckman cue. I love the cue and the way it plays. Dieckman sold it to me at the US 3C Nationals in Kentucky.
It is a "coin" cue because of the Indian head penny, struck 100 years before the cue was made, that Dieckman inlayed into the butt section. It has a few other interesting distinctions. The entire cue is a single piece of Michigan birdseye. No wrap section piece. The cue also has the Native American figure Cocopelle (a frequent distinction to many Dieckman cues) and a purple heart butterfly on the opposite side.
National champion Sonny Cho tried the cue and ran a six before returning it with high compliment about Dieckman playability. The shafts were custom tapered to the specs of Eddy Robin. He is a former national champion and writer of the well known book Position Play in 3 Cushion Billiards.

Drill System

Sounds a lot like FARGO (Flip and Run, Guts Offense), a practice game invented by MIke Page.

Smash break a full rack, take ball in hand (or not), and shoot any ball (like straight pool) until you get to a point where you think you can run the rest in rotation - then try that. I think you get 1 point for each "random" ball and 2 points for each rotation ball.

The rules were posted here years ago. (The "flip" part refers to putting a coin on the rail and flipping it over when you start the rotation phase.)

Yep - def sounds like FARGO game (nothing to do with the rating system). Rules link:

The cues are made with dimensions similar to his teachers. Excellent quality and value in each Steve Serna cue!

Was pool better 50 years ago?

I am sorry. I was not questioning you or directing anything toward you. I was trying to point out that an evaluation of pool -- then and now -- should also consider how much fun was had by mere mortals -- bangers -- and what magic places pool rooms used to be.

Old school pool halls were fun back in the day.

Lots of characters with lots of things going on: dominoes in the front, money pinball machines on the side, snooker tables with people playing golf, people playing 9-ball ring games and Kelly pool, old timers playing one pocket, people telling stories and tall tales, occasional fights, etc.

Something for everybody.

Mister, I haven’t been to NPR in a long time….I really have no idea whom you are or what you stand for
and personally speaking, I don’t give a _hit what you think, believe or post anywhere or anytime. I hope
that is clear enough. You never impressed me on NPR or I’d recall something, anything you posted. In
other words, I don’t pay attention very long to insignificant things, events, people or their opinions on Az.
But I don’t back down on anything, you’ll always know where I stand and I’ll still admit if & when I’m wrong.

Umm yeah, you just quoted a post from 5 years ago. I haven't been in npr for a long time at this point either except for the last few days...lol

I worked in a real "old school" pool hall from the time I was a kid until after I got out of high school.

I spent HOURS in the pool hall six days a week for years.

I played all of those games, but Kelly pool may have been my least favorite.

I gambled at all games and played anybody and everybody.

Jack White was incredible -- I caught him 3 times: at Southern Miss, South Alabama, and Keesler Air Force Base. Additionally, he was Scott Lee's mentor.

I saw him at Keesler AFB in Biloxi in 1973.

He drove a big dark green Cadillac and he had plastic signs held on with magnets on both front doors of his car.

The signs said, "Jack White. World's Greatest Trickshot Artist".
