The PH I frequent recently began putting out Silver Cup (used to provide blue Master) and the place has started to go psycho. Everyone is bitchin and moanin. And, I have to admit, the mis-cue'n phenom is markedly more frequent. It doesn't seem to affect me, but, that has got me wondering...

Wood be nice if MJ would post the final 16 after Sat. I'm sure they just have to send it in to AZ and they'd put it up. (Free xposure too)

All other things being equal, for what it's worth (and, you probably don't, and shouldn't care, but), the Schon may have an edge in name recognition.

any experiences with this?

I love my carmeli. Post a pic of cork wrap job, when available - what's that run? Thanks cutty

cheap; no scanner. pm me your street address (I'll try and remember to check). i'll just cut it out and mail it. that ad is in several of the old issues I have. Cutty

Yep, Joe Just looked - that cue, and mine, are in a BB ad in a Feb '89 issue of "Pool and Billiards". Cutty

Would like opinions and comments regarding how tight a cue should be screwed together. Reason I'm asking, (and this may have happened to you) : Went to a tourney this weekend and one of the guys had a new cue and I asked to take a closer look. It was a real nice; had an ivory joint so, I...

Is it just me?...or, have you grown tired, too, of the standard descriptor "hit's a ton" being used to describe any and every cue on the planet? To me, its SO over-used, and extricibly mandatory that it's totally lost any significance. I've accumulated and sampled the gamut of cues and, with...

Travis, I've noticed this too... My take, is that specific contractual stipulations and commitments between sponsors and indivdual players, related to cue usage, probably, varies considerably, and, for the most part, isn't 100% binding. I could be wrong, but, given the current state of the...

I love mine - It's very solid an I'm confident with it. It would be difficult to evaluate it from the standpoint of if it's "any better" than something else ( I never hit a hundred racks with it, and, a hundred with something else and then stat'd out the number of balls made, avg mph, and...

Last week I sold a used (but not abused) Meucci with red dot to a guy at the pool hall. I saw him tonite and he's saying that the shaft tenon is cracked. He's claiming that's what it is because the ferrule is ok, and it's making a noise. I've had it for a couple of years and didn't play with...

What are your perceived pros and cons for lighter versus heavier cues.? Reason I'm asking: I got into a discussion this week with two fairly decent players (one a tall guy the other, about 5'7") - they were adamant about using the lightest cue that they could find and said what they're using is...

AD I saw the early announcements for this show and thought how great it would be for a cue geek such as myself to go, but, as is mostly the case, other priorities prevailed. Thanks for sharing - next best thing to being there.

I didn't get much from it. Most of the info is regurged from other sources and what's not rehash has an overidding speculative sentimentality that I didn't buy. Don't get me wrong, I thirst for this kinda stuff, and there's a need for more of it. I liked McGorty and the pool part of...

My Bender is, definitely, great. Havta brag about the Sherm I've been using. Not so ornate, but the most cue power I've ever had. Super ball pocketing machine...

Thanks for getting Dianne to do these and getting them posted. Hopefully, she'll go to Valley Forge and get some more... Too, as a suggestion, when at the big tourneys, get some pics of the players sticks and put them up. In the golf media, this sort of "in the bag" info has become extemely...

I've got the layereds on about 5 different shafts, and I don't think they're worth it-meaning, I don't play any better with one, and any performance difference is unnoticable, to me. Don't wanna Grandma you, (but maybe you, already do) realize that if you've just paid a big price for...

I’d be willing to bet that, all told, there are more Meucci’s in play than any other brand of two piece cue (at least, in the U.S.). That being true, it would be easy for me to get further out on the limb and say that, day in, and day out, there are more matches, and, money won with a Meucci...
