    Newbie needs advice

    It will be fine for what you want. I'm a "serious" pool player, and I started out with a similar furniture style table. I did move to a Gold Crown, and it's not what you want from the sounds of it. Description states solid wood frame and slate with a backer. You'll be just fine. The only...

    Old Scruggs Sneaky

    Selling an old Scruggs Hoppe sneaky pete. Original, unrestored condition with one shaft. Really, really shoots well. I'm just using a cue my father made, now. Shaft is 12.8mm, overall a little over 19oz. Butt rolls true. Shaft has a credit cards worth of lift. The lift is in the center when...

    Something not seen often... Parrot.

    Beautiful Parrot cue. David Hodges confirmed its one of his from the late 90s. I was very surprised with this slim-handled cue. Really plays great. Now I know why they don't often change hands. I would trade this for a 4 point Parrot, only.

    other one piece tips

    Pooldawg8's duds are more of a medium tip. I break & shoot with mine, and have no problems applying spin. They don't glaze over; at least mine hasen't. I think you'd like them if you're used to playing with house cues. If you want to try another layered tip, then I'd go with either the...

    Cue popularity by region

    Do you have any idea how much money is in the surrounding Baltimore area? Go into the New Green Room and try and find an old fella without a Scruggs sneaky. It's like Palmers used to be in New Jersey. Tim's major production days were pre-internet; so, you're telling me he sold more cues via...

    Cal Hedden cue

    Great cue! And, it looks like Dick was able to give you the authentication. The non-original butt cap will hurt the value; just so you know, since you said you considered selling. It's a rare bird for sure.

    Which cues goes up in price over time?

    So you bought the cue directly from Randy, and then flipped it due to supply/demand. That is specifically the one caveat I listed. The next person will not fair so well.
