Nice, Doc!! Thanks!

yes, sir - in work as well. Thanks!

I will take some photos of the Fellini's soon to share in this thread.

Gold letter. Blank buttcap.

I've loved pool since I was 5 years old. My dad was a good player and got me hooked early on. (I sure do miss him) I love everything about this entire culture....beautiful cues, great competition, pro tournaments, action, zany characters, dramatic events, playing good (those days when you can't...

Can one of our Joss experts (SROBER40, CHOPDOC, GARCZAR) confirm the year/model of this JOSS for me? I saw one like it on ebay being sold from Japan, but the listing did not identify the model. This was a one-owner, all original cue, bought new from Cue and Cushion in STL decades ago...and, more...

No, that isn't one they would post on youtube. I had to buy a copy on ebay years ago.

You should watch the Accu-stats match, Keith McCready versus AZB's very own (RIP) Gary "Bushwhacker" Nolan. Gary was a MONSTER player and the 9 ball match between he and a prime-time Keith went to the hill. The commentary was extraordinary, LOL...with Grady, et al, in rare form. A must see.

Wow, I loved this! Grady said a lady he was dating was anatomically vague, LOL....the early days of Accu-stats!

Love this. I thought Dean has resurrected by your sales pitch. :D

First time I saw him play was in that southern bar table tournament, which he won. He had that pretty SW cue and a cool playing style. Next thing I know he won the US OPEN 9 Ball championship. I sure hope I get to see him battling on the tournament trail again.

Jacoby products are A++++ - agree with you!

RIP to a marvelous player!

Dry paper towel. Wipe the cue down after use for the day. I like my shaft(s) to get seasoned.

Buddy Hall said it didn't matter because you're only using the edge of your tip.

I can remember figuring out inside english, and how useful it could be for position play. Man, I was spinning everything with inside for a good year, LOL.

Yes, outside was always referred to as "helping" english when I was growing up.

Agreed. To a new player i would advise to learn on the center axis of the cue ball. Get proficient with your stroke and fundamentals. Then start exploring english, because at that point you would truly understand how spin affects the cue ball/object balls.

Another - Bob Vanover. Haverty Furniture Executive and stone cold champion/Texas pool legend.

I just wanted to add that I'm super impressed by Nick Varner who is now 70+ years old. He was always a business man, even as a pro player. He would order cues made to his specs from JOSS early on, and then sell them himself to pool rooms around the country building relationships/networks along...
