This looks great. Never even knew they made tables. Were it not for my GC1, I’d be calling you since I’m in MI. Good luck on the sale!

Hey Terry, This is Sean; I actually just sent you the Joss West today. I have texted you the tracking info. I’d love to see the Palmer cues you might offer. Feel free to text me pics or, if you prefer email, you can send to: oldcreekventures@proton.me Regards, Sean

I currently own a Model D. It is the finest cue I’ve ever owned or played with. I would like to purchase at least one more second catalog Palmer if I could. I’m a serious buyer, and willing to pay for examples that are in excellent condition and suitable for play IE - straight together and...

Yeah, this is an interesting question. The newest billiard product I own is some Taom chalk. My table, cues, tips, balls, etc are all from the late 1960s thru early 1990s. I am a sort of “golden era junkie” so the Predator gear generally turns me off. That said, if they have the market...

You’re aren’t alone in mediocrity friend. This game is nearly as vexing as golf.

Here is a Hoover handheld vacuum for your pool table. I used this back when my tables had champion cloth. It will still work with Simonis, but I have a better device for that here so this is redundant. Vacuum is eminently serviceable, and it won’t cost you a dime, except for shipping. I don’t...

Keith is bar none my favorite player to watch. I revisit his match against Reyes in the 1988 Brunswick 9 ball event regularly. I’d pay five grand to take a Time Machine back to the early 80s to watch him grind in a serious money match.

I very greatly appreciate everybody’s responses here. This is all very good feedback. Indeed, I don’t think that I am doing the best job of making sure that I put the balls in the exact spots that they show up in the match videos, but in each one of these shot diagrams I have done, I have been...

So far, I think these diagrams have been helpful for me because I started Pool late in life, I don’t play in leagues, and I don’t go out to play in bars. I don’t have the benefit of having had the opportunity to watch people in person who know what they’re doing or who have the ability to...

100 percent. I started noticing this right away. My two primary playing cues are a 1994 Joss with the Joss high performance kielwood shaft (lower deflection) and a 1968 Palmer Model D….with a 13.5mm old growth shaft. I find that the aim points for both of these cues are essentially the same...

I watch a lot of older stuff from Accu-Stats. I’m an advanced beginner. I have found my stroke but I am in the process of learning how to use English to play position. Yesterday I was watching an old match on YouTube and a lightbulb went on: when I see one of these fantastic pro players...

I’m waiting on a sweet block letter Joss….shipped from WI to me here in MI. That’s basically a three day journey with UPS or FedEx. Look at this nonsense:

I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed the evolution of this discussion thread. The original questions have been addressed above and beyond….. and all in a highly relevant fashion I would say. I think the conclusion that I’m formulating now, is that there are probably no true criteria upon...

Very good points. It’s an irrelevant question, but for the sake of discussion, would you agree that a guy like Archer or Strickland….transported to today in their prime would be at the top? My guess would be yes.

As a result of a new TV purchase, I have access to a dedicated billiards tv channel that shows live and replay coverage of professional pool tournaments that have taken place over the last three or four years. It’s predominantly nine and 10 ball. As a result of this, I’ve actually started to...

For your consideration is a super clean deep burgundy alligator 2x4 case by It’s George. Aside from the very small indentation in the plastic on the lid of the case, it’s in near mint condition. None of the typical wear you see with these cases. This obviously never left the house, it...

An event like this would be music to my ears. I purchased a new TV three months ago or so, it’s a Samsung. It’s got these pre-programmed channels on it that I don’t fully understand, but one of them happens to be a billiards channel. 24 hours a day, all modern events. Last night I watched a 10...

Thanks for making this group! I’m a recently “converted” long cue player myself so this might be a great resource.

Folks……semantics have been argued but the answer is simple: Apologies, I felt some levity was needed here.
