I play in the 8 ball league. I have a hard time understand how the handicap formula really works. Is it based more on winning percentage or innings? Does it matter if you defeat a higher handicap player over a lower ranked player?

Cory Duel Cory Duel plays with a Meucci.

It has happened to me at least 10 times USPS where the tracking information stops somewhere and the item shows up 5-10 days later.

They are different sticks purchased from different people. I'm not sure if I should keep them or sell them. I know you could customize your stick with different stains etc but I wasn't aware that they could be different lengths. If so what lengths? Any information would be appreciated.

I recently purchased 2 vintage mid-high level Meucci (1985-1990). Without realizing it, they were both not the typical 58 inches. One is 60 inches and one 55.5 inches. I'm not really happy but are these very unusual? I ordered from the factory before around that time period but wasn't aware that...

Oh yeah with Earl playing his Minnesota Fats shenanigans trying to disrupt the match the quiet Efren still beat Earl for $100,000 in Hong Kong in 1996 in a race to 120.... This is when Earl was at his prime at 35 years old.

Your conversion rate may be correct but it's like comparing two people working at McDonalds playing for $750. It's not. In the Philippines the guys betting are extremely wealthy Filipinos equivalent to way over the average salary in the U.S. The pool player doesn't lose any money. He does get a...

I had CTS on both my wrist two weeks apart in January. I might be the first person ever to do that. It was difficult but I managed. I didn't have problems with my closed bridge but it was more of a problem with numbness in both hands while sleeping at night and many times during the day. I was...

No sweat for Efren Efren hits that ball 99% of the time and probably makes it over 70%. To him a 3 rail kick is like a one rail kick to the average person. He looked at it and didn't even hesitate.

When were they manufactured? I was hoping someone would know when the Special Edition were manufactured? It had to be after 1988 because of the script Meucci on the butt. Has anyone purchased a Meucci SE new and what was it?

Brushing cue ball up or down [I]Around 25 years ago I read in Pool and Billiard magazine an instructional section by Nick Varner. It showed how to do it pulling the cue stick up or down. Nick Varner said it was a legal shot. The APA rulebook doesn't say anything about it so it must be legal as...

7 footer for precision If you are a good player I'd say stay with the 7 footer. You said all your leagues and tournaments are on a 7 footer. The angles are much different on the smaller table. It's a lot harder to get position and the precision of your game will improve much better practicing...

I know there are a lot of Meucci experts out there. When did the start making the SE-1. Where the Special Edition cues made one every year or were they available for an extended period of time from the factory (old stock, not used stock from dealers may have been available for several years?

In various sports athletes hit their prime at different ages. What do you think is the prime age for pool players? Pros and amateurs.

I'm an American who lived overseas. Around 13 years ago my Meucci M16 was stolen while I was living overseas. I've had other Meucci and Predators since then but for sentimental reasons I want to get back another M16. I've been looking for a long time. I was busy two weeks ago and missed it when...

Meucci I think you made a mistake by cancelling your order so fast. Opinions are like....everyone had one. I have 2 McDermott's in my house with warped shafts. The only McDermott's I've ever had. I bought one for my wife and one for my brother around 5 years ago. I called the them and without...

Thank you for the corrections. The cue is not a model J, it's a model 16. I'm not an expert on Palmers but I appreciate the input. The cue is now relisted on Ebay as the correct model 16. It's a beautiful cue with minimal use in excellent condition. It's still a great opportunity for someone to...

All the people who contacted me last month, I'm sorry for not responding properly with pictures and prices. I've been preoccupied with some minor operations. The good news I haven't entertained anyone else either. I've listed the Palmer Model J on Ebay last night. It's just a 3 day auction. The...

original shaft Lou, I also have been playing with Meucci since the 80's. I don't think my eyes are sharp enough to play at a high level on a big table anymore but I still love the action that the old shaft brings. I changed to a Predator a few years ago but my game went down. I was so use to...

Rules are the rules. I'm not arguing the point. I agree the rules are the rules but I can understand how the mistake could happen. The same goes for not calling yourself on a foul. In the Philippines games are played for money all the time. It's usually not the players money. There is no good...
