Possibly the best comedy movie ever! Just the opening line (which probably wouldn't/couldn't exist in today's world is iconic.

Then why comment at all about advice in a thread if you only play for yourself and don’t care? Just to troll I suppose.

George Fels has useless advice… I think not.

Keep hitting balls slow then, like I said I do not care if people want to take bad advice. Goodluck

According to the Blue Book of Pool Cues, Karella cues were made since 1993 till 2005 in Thailand for Competition Sports.
So I don't think that they were made by Adam that operated from Japan.

Some of them looked very different then others though. Very different styles, and different style rubber bumpers, if that even says anything about them. Just seems that the brand was made by different factories, and in very different styles, but I do not know. Some were even made for three cushion billiards, with the long wooden joint pin, coming out of the shaft.

I guess that none of that means anything though. They may have still all been made in the same factory.

Some (with just a K logo) were even said to have been made by Joss, lol. I found that one hard to believe though.

I feel we are due a classic Romanique or Raschig appearing on eBay. It’s been a while.

Keep your eyes peeled.

I ran the local pool hall night shift in the early 70’s. I still have 3 boxes of the elk masters. The day shift man did all cue repair and in those days you could grab a house cue from the wall rack and they were all good players. Man the good ole days

- I had to edit my above error where I said John Carr rather than the correct Jack Carr; John Bartley was the room owner. Sorry about that.

If you expect high accuracy with fast shots without even verifying to see if you have accuracy with slow shots (and at the expense of not looking “cool” to your friends for a while) then you should dig out a foundation and build a nice comfortable house on your plateau.
