. I really enjoyed the 1980's when the women and men had tournaments at the same place. It was nice to spend time with both under the same roof. Was also nice to be able to afford gas and a room. Lots of money to gamble with back in those days. .

. I have shipped thousands of pool cues and never had one damaged. It's what I do every day. .

. Well if you are using a lathe you can just use your cutting tool to get it close. Easy if you know what you are doing. Then finish it with rough sandpaper or you tip tool. .

. Free box from USPS. One roll of good packing tape. Tape the box inside and outside all over. Ship USPS Priority for around $8 dollars. .

. I feel like I live in a different world. I don't remember pool being great in the 1990's. Can't wait to see something come out of this but...... Bar Box tournaments is where the money is. A good amateur player can make more money than most Pro players. .

. I had no idea Dr. Dave was an instructor in pool. .

. I tried the Black Arrow and I didn't like it. No pro taper and the hit wasn't real good. So I sold it for $200 and was glad to get rid of it. A bunch of people in my pool league are using carbon fiber shafts made by someone in PA. They were around $200. . .

. So why should he settle for 626? Why isn't he back at it trying to do it again? I'm not a fan but he does play good. He's the fastest guy I know to block someone on Facebook. He likes to belittle people and call them names but he can't take it back. Blocks people like a coward...

. I think it's good to practice with as many cues you can. After a while you will notice differences in different cues. I play with different shafts and different cues every week for testing. If you play with something that isn't so good then go to your favorite it will be like driving...

. Another secret in the pool industry. The Meucci Pro is just a regular shaft with a short ferrule. No secret complicated technology. Just another sales pitch. Funny how most shafts today are advertised as LD when they are just regular shafts. .

. A lot of dealers with OB are stuck with old stock cues. Whenever I ordered new OB cues I always got it in an OB case. The quality always sucked. I had to send back 50% of all my new OB cues because of defects. People want to know whose fault it was? I'd blame the production...

. Not active with R&R. Had problems with money. Was always a secret who made them. I always thought they were made by KCC. Later rumors came out they were made by Schmelke. He's still on Facebook but not as a cue seller. .

. Today this cue is considered the JR-5 then after that the M-14. Originally it was going to be part of the Earl Stricklin line of Meucci cues. Earl went to Cuetec so this cue became part of the Jim Rempe series cues instead. There are better pictures of the cue with Earl...

. And here comes the JB bootlickers. . .

. Piece of garden hose will work. Short piece of wood dowel. I would put something in there so you can get it out later on if you need to. Joint protectors on your cue might help. My hardware store has springs to put in those holes. You can make your case spring loaded. . .

. I'm certainly not a fan of those cue balls either. The ones I used look like they'd glow int the dark. .

. Rack Runner cues. People used to really talk them up. .

. I've been listening and haven't heard a good thing or bad in a while. I won't be dealing with them ever again. .

. I have been around for a long time and have around ten Mali cues. I've never seen this one before. .

. This all seems kind of weird to me. I was playing in 1986 and I still play today. 1986 wasn't that long ago and most players from then are still alive and still play, just not in the big events. All the players from 1986 would do just fine today. The clothe on the table, pocket...
