Years ago I beat him at the Super Bowl tournament at The Rack in Memphis to put him on the loser's side. He double dipped Hennessee to win,and 20 min after he made the last ball he was led out of the building by Memphis PD because he caused a scene when one of the envelopes with the...

There is a thread from a few years ago where someone found the pic from when Buddy won the Willard's tournament and was on the cover of Billiards Digest. The cue in his hand is indeed a Buddy model Bludworth. He won the U.S. Open against Dennis Hatch not long after that with a different one. I...

For the times it does happen,I've always used a little spit and a piece of smooth leather I cut out of a wallet my late father carried for 20 years. I wet the sidewall,wrap the leather round the ferrule and roll it across my left leg until the job is done,15 seconds or so usually but honestly...

I want to say Johnny Archer won 177k in 1996,which was the biggest year ever money-wise up until the IPT fiasco. The funny thing is,even before the Tiger Woods phenomena that came a year later,the 135th ranked golfer,a guy that never won a PGA tournament in his life and barely held on to his...

John Schmidt is excellent,same goes for Bobby Hunter. Tommy D.

Ginacue Box Cue: The First Box Cue Ever Made What does the Gina hit like? Tommy D.

I've been a believer since the days when the ONLY way to get it was VHS. If given the chance,I do shot #1 100 times before I do anything else. Tommy D.

The only video I saw of him was on a Bigtruck stream where he beat Joey Gray on a 7' Diamond at a tournament somewhere. Tommy D.

At one time,someone on here posted the 80's VHS Learn From The Best on Youtube,but can't find it now. It had a little clip of Wade Crane talking about the break that I think is just about the only video of him speaking. Tommy D.

So far,I've only used it on ferrules. As best I can tell,there is no difference between this material and the one Perry sells called Arvorin. There is also a "faux ivory" of an acrylic nature available at Woodcraft that is pretty close to identical. I can tell you that it doesn't like being...

If that is truly Goncalo Alves,then I have 4 butt blanks on hand that I harvested from broke or repurposed house cues that look just like the butt in the original post ;). They would ALL need help to get up to what I'd consider a playable weight,meaning that 2 of them were 17oz and 2 were 18oz...

The Samsara True Medium has been pleasing me for almost a year now :cool:. Tommy D.

My fave moment was the way he treated Hennessee at The Rack in Memphis one year. He tried to shark and talk shit to Rafael,but it didn't work,and Henny was told in no uncertain terms,keep that shit up,and you won't like it. It wasn't before long before Rafael's case got knocked over,and when...

What he meant was the wood under the wrap needs to be replaced,after which the forearm and butt sleeve can be reattached. If done well with a rewrap/refin,you'll probably not be able to tell it. Tommy D.

Your stuff is amazing :cool:. Tommy D.

Where do I find the video of your interview with Al from South West? Tommy D.

It depends on what I'm trying to accomplish. Let's say the customer has an old Meucci,and wants to try to stay close to original. I go with Juma or Elforyn. If they want something that maybe looks a little different but a tougher material I recommend Tomahawk. Tomahawk is also my go-to for...

#1 The heyday at Starcher's in Akron,so we could get HD footage of a place that by my estimation had close to 100 players in the 700 Fargo range as regulars...and still the best wings I've ever eaten :cool:. #2 Shreveport in the Buddy Hall days,spotting Louie Roberts and making it stick... #3...

Reed Pierce played with one a LOT like that. Tommy D.

I never thought about using them much because EVERY case I had ever bought up until last year always had a black interior. I saw a friend's Instroke copy that had the bottom fall out of it and tried to fix it. While I was messing with it I couldn't believe how much chalk was built up at the...
