Hey everyone,

From Texas here! After stepping away from the table in 1994, I finally picked up my old Captain Hook Muecci cue again in March 2025. I was told it was in too good a condition to play with it as it will continue to increase in value, so I put it up and started a cue buying frenzy. My current collection below.

I’ve spent the last few months diving headfirst into the hobby and joined both BCA and APA teams to get my stroke back.

The new things I learned of the game is a trip such as learning about Fargo Rates has been a hilarious reality check compared to the old days. Old days were just “I got next” and bar roles only.

Happy to be here and part of the AZB community!

Welcome to our little corner of our genre. Or, I should say our common addiction.
Nice opening post, you have already fit in.
And if you are considering selling Mr. Captain Hook, rest assured I will place it
in a position of comfort with many of its cohorts! Remember, contact me!

We had a thread on this a while ago..... Do you let your guests use your "better" cues? When my collection was on the wall they were more for wall art. Most them were new never used. Once in a while someone would take one off the rack without asking and had my wife bite them. Myself I do not touch anything in anyones house without asking..(cues, record collection, stereo equipment. etc).
