I still have mine too, may buy another, or something else But it’s not going anywhere

80s for me, but this place was unchanged for decades I think. Big bowling alley with 10 grimy Gold Crown 8 ft tables in a separate room, one table up front was kept better and reserved for the gamblers. You had local legends, road agents, short stops, scufflers, drug dealers...the whole cast of...

We can play all pool games even, but you would have to spot me the 7 drinking bourbon.

I used to practice/play leagues etc regularly with a very strong player(725ish Fargo). If he was having a tip put on or cue work done, he was adamant that the shaft not be cleaned. He would rarely wipe it down, might hit it with a slicker occasionally, but wanted all of the "oils" to stay on it...

The guy sitting in my profile pic, that's the guy I'd bet on. Go em both trapped in a poker game a while back...lol

Just picked this one up, full shaft and arrow straight I’ve had a few of these over the years, but none with a forearm this light in color Would it’s be rosewood or just a light specimen of ebony? Also, what era would you say this one is? I bought one brand new in 89, the features on this one...

There's something a little different on these The McD shaft will fit a standard Schon 5/16x14 butt But, Schon shafts tighten up about 3/4 way down on mcD butt and won't seat Threads are oversized , different pitch or something I've tried half a dozen 5/16x14 shafts by different makers and none...

Do any cuemakers here know what the specs are on the pin Bill used on his J&J cues? I have a Mac Attack, and would like a second shaft made. Don't want to send the cue off to someone and take a chance something happening. His shafts were supposed to be interchangeable, so making one to known...

That's Buck! Was at the pool room today, said he's gonna make a DVD Still not sure he knows who SVB is

I know the youngsters on here won't believe it, but Meucci made some decent playing cues at one time. Picked this up in a pawn shop for a decent price. It has a little roll in the butt, not bad Shaft is still near 13mm Installed a Kamui medium and proceeded to run about 20 balls with it...

Exactly, when was pool most popular? Was it local rooms and action, or a national professional organization? That was rhetorical btw. So, Scott , you charge people for pool lessons. How can you sleep at night knowing they may take those skills that you've imparted and hustle someone out of...

Well, I don't really play well enough to hustle anyone Scott And, this guy has seen me play before too, I think he rates his game a little too high IMHO Even after an asswhipping, he was still pretty frisky about playing more later Also, he probably thought he was on a freerroll with his...

So we usually play cheap $20-50 sets of 9 ball to 5, and $10-20 1P at the local hall Friendly stuff, between friends. We have a $10 Friday 8 ball tournament , usually 20-25 in it. A couple of weeks ago they added a Calcutta. It seems to have loosened pockets, and bring in new blood. I missed...

I have a Mac attack with the goofy non standard pin Would like a shaft with McDaniels or close-to-it taper Preferably someone has some nice old shaft blanks Willing to pay what is required to get it done right PM me here or email craigecarter@icloud.com

Looking for a McDaniels shaft, prefer 13mm +/- Need the later style with the modified 5/16x14, a regular shaft won't fit these butts, but the proprietary shaft will fit on a standard butt I think these were made for a specific dealer Have a nice pre cat 314 to trade of anyone is interested, or...

Still have any of these? Looking for one

And to think, I was going to give you first refusal...oops :p

After a few months of play, I like this cue even more. It seems I can judge the throw better on long shots, and inside English is more predictable. I've never got along well with low deflection shafts, and always revert to a standard maple shaft. I'm a serial flipper/accumulator when it comes...
