Hey Joey, I miss being around the Southern California scene quite a bit and am glad we had the chance to meet the people we did. Lot's of great cuemakers down there and unfortunately some of them and some players have passed, glad to see you're still around the game and making cues these days...

I don't recall for how long or when but Efren was playing with his cues for a bit, perhaps someone who knows more than I can confirm the time period. Neil

Chris Santana does work for the Mezz West Coast Tour, can't link to his FB account since I'm at work but here is some info: www.chrisdesignstuff.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-santana-b5406926 You'll probably really enjoy the name of his company.....Fast & Loose Designs, hope this...

I recall after a bad storm that Efren sheltered some people in a warehouse of his after their homes were destroyed, can't recall where the article/interview was from but I'll try to find it. Neil Edit: Found an article highlighting donations made by pro players after tropical storm Sendong...

So call me maybe? Neil

When Steve Knight and Imran Majid first came over in 2000 playing the Billiard Channel Tour it was amazing how well those 2 played while absolutely SMASHED drunk. Imran remained as classy as ever but Steve got to be a bit mouthy, nothing crazy but his confidence swelled up and crossed into the...

2006? That's a long time ago, didn't know John has been retired for a decade....hmmmm. Neil

Thank you for the link and info it was very interesting, makes me want to watch all of the TAR podcasts to see what can be gleaned from them!! Neil

It changed the industry and pool players around the World should thank Jim Lucas for that, he paid Stroud 6-figures to teach them the tricks of the trade that comes from decades of custom cuemaking. Neil

One of the things I tried to tell them was that facing off the joint is one of the last steps to do before delivery to ensure that the surfaces are flat and the cue will roll true, plus it won't come apart like your friend's did. Guess they are still not doing that, it's a shame because it makes...

Actually Kenny passed away in December and it's truly heartbreaking, honestly I think it's better in a way that at least he didn't have to go through the closing of the poolroom but of course it's horrible that we lost him. Neil

The old saying is: Never argue with an idiot, he will bring you down to his level then beat you with experience. No thank you, I will sit high on the hill with my friend Mike Webb. Neil

Mike Webb = hack Predator = hack Fuji-whopper = has been/future hack Am going to start trying to complete those drills that Darren Appleton keeps posting about on Facebook, if I do get lucky enough to complete one I will definitely get it on tape because noooooobody will believe me ha ha. Mr...

He will hand deliver to anywhere in the USA, would be nice to buy it so that he can come to Hawaii on vacation all expenses paid. Looks like he's only trying to make 10% on the transaction which isn't much at all, most dealers wouldn't buy a cue with that kind of profit margin especially with...

When McEnroe starts beating on 4oz. rackets please let me know, till then there is a discrepancy in the purpose it's built for, the amount of material and the direction that the abuse is coming from. Neil

Whether I worked there or not is moot, that's why I gave an example outside of the company and industry. I didn't mention that the shaft was developed by the Porsche Design Group in California and you know those guys don't work cheap, no reason for it when there are so many other ways to make...

Saw the website for the museum pics, it's a very nice collection of unique pictures. Thank you for the information, now back to your regularly scheduled bashing. Neil

Sorry to interrupt the fun you two are having, but what is the ABR you mentioned? Do you have more pictures of your collection? 3,000 pieces is a very impressive amount and I'd love to see anything you have handy and would like to share. Thank you, Neil

Sorry to interrupt the fun you two are having, but what is the ABR you mentioned? Would love to see your collection of Billiard items if you have pictures handy, 3,000 pieces is a very impressive number!! Thank you, Neil

You didn't take it out of context? Hmmm, okay. Neil
