That would mean the glitter rings were “doc frye” style

He didn’t work with or buy anything from balabushka. George bought materials, premade custom blanks and converted Brunswick Titlists into cues. He never sold anything but finished cues. He influenced Gus Szamboti and after gus began making blanks Doc bought points from him. Fryer...

Thanks for the link! Lol not sure where I misconstrued that from or if was confused over a diff old players myths stories lol

Keith Thompson….Didn’t he become a preacher?

It’s def way better than a “THUNK” hitting cue 🤣😳

Have a guy interested in this cue 3373360245 Jeremy Bellard is his name, you can also find him on fb. Dude woke me up offshore after 3am to get me to contact you on here 😂. Good friend of mine and a reputable buyer on fb for what its worth

About the only thing I’ll reach out and say can make a difference in joints besides the subjective feel, is the weight differential between joint styles and some of their collar constructions, as some joints are better off with certain types of collars due to the width of collar and pin. Good...

You can get plywood as thick as 1.25”. My father and I built his shop using 1.25” tongue and groove plywood for the floors.

No you def don’t need a few thousand in a cue for it to play great. But the makers that are getting 2k for a nice 4pt 4 veneer cue with basic ring work are making a great product and getting paid solid “wage” for their meticulous labor. A cue takes anywhere from roughly 12 hrs all the way up...

Oh no doubt. Of course I in no way mean high end cues not being worth it in utility to mean they don’t or can’t have a superior hit and playability…..because most def do Playability costs up to 2-3k or so…..the other tens of thousands of dollars spent is the decor to said utilitarian device...

Exactly my thoughts…out the blue just matching up on the spot. And if one takes away that jump cue it’s probably gonna be like a nightmare lol

Collectible commodities and the retail cost of produced goods are not required to correlate in a free market. For players high end cues aren’t really worth a dam in regards to inherent utility. For collectors the price doesn’t give a dam about the products inherent utility. In a free open...

Tyler and that predator ld shaft would get crumpled by Matlock and his giant ball 😂. In my mind the current shaft tech would be a exercise in depravity with the big rock. Odd power curve the Ball would hesitate and not get DROVE but would drive you lol.

Imop basketball & skateboarding shoes are best for pool generally, enough cushion but flat sole for stability. Good grip on outsole. Road flats if one finds the right pair are my favorite but most tend to have a narrow midfoot which reduces stability. Plus 1 for flexibility tho. Converse...

Nike sponsos Tommy Kennedy releases the “TK Air Rise” Nike….get on up there!

1912 on the tag (guessing typo on the post) It’s a Brunswick Balke Collander table (BBC) J.m Brunswick then J.m Brunswick and brother in 1860 when his brother came on board merged with Balke in 1873 and Phelan -H.W Collander (collander was Michael phelans son in law ) later after the death of...

Sorry I specifically meant the permarack

Actually sorry Incorrect…i should have went double check first myself … went check and here’s screenshots of earls vs Jason sessions. I knew I had heard that mentioned

Tho not specifically hoppes… In 1906 Brunswick open a 100k sf plant in Muskegon, Michigan. And was pumping out 400k cues a year and had enough reserve wood drying in lions to make an additional 600k cues. At one point their entire operations power was fueled by the saw dust they generated...

Back when I did them by hand years ago I couldn’t bring myself to use a mushroom cutter, worries about getting into the ferrule corner haphazardly….You make a valid point on tips to start with. Triangle would be one like the lepro you mentioned. One thing I did do was hold the shaft...
