    Texas Legend Passed Away - R.I.P. Junior Norris

    Jr. was a great competitor and played in probably every tournament in Texas that we held starting with the Southwest Tour, McDermott Tour, and the National 9-Ball Tour. He will be missed. RIP Mr. Norris

    Who made it? Old Jim Rempe Cue Engraved Butt Cap

    A pic of the weight bolt taken out of the cue would be interesting. The early McD's had that head on them. Maybe someone tried to add some weight to the cue.

    Just announced--johnny vs ignacio!

    Texas Express 9-ball rules were the single best thing to happen to pool in the last 30 years.

    Help Identifying Cue

    At first glance, it looks like an early Mali. Maybe better pics of the joint and points would help.

    Money taken off the calcutta without any prior announcement, is that normal?

    It has been a common practice for over 30 years. No need to form a lynch mob.

    Viking Restoration

    I have sent cues to Viking since the 70's for work. Always top notch and quick turnaround....less than 30 days.

    For those who have followed the game for decades

    There once was three guys from Texas that did a thousand or so events. Standardized rules and a code of conduct was one of the highlights. But alas, it was before everyone had a computer or we still might be pounding the highway today. As for billiard corporations not giving back to the...

    Cue dealers chime in?

    I have a pro shop in a large pool room in South Texas. People come in all the time and tell me they want to get into the biz. I have set up several wanna be dealers and cue nuts with all the info and merchandise to get them started. The longest anyone lasted was almost 2 years, and only...

    Woodworks Racks from San Antonio, TX

    Vivian Villarreals pool coach was the distributor of these great racks. His was called 'Duffy'. I believe he had them made by a wood shop in San Antonio, and they were a bit pricey for the market at the time. He carried them all over the country trying to sell enough to go into production...

    How good were Cole Dickson and Mark Tadd?

    I first met Tadd in the 90's while doing an event on the McD tour in southern California at South Bay Billiards. Ted Harris introduced us and gave me the scoop on Mark. From what I witnessed, he was the SVB of the early nineties. He was way beyond dedicated to learning the game, and went...

    10-ball may be hurting pool in America

    9-ball is the greatest thing to happen to pool in the last 50 years. Texas Express rules made the game much easier to understand for the newbies, and much more fun to play. Bring the big $ entry fees like Texas Hold-em and watch the interest increase. Most want to make the game more...

    Get rid of jump cues for Mosconi Cup

    Guilty !!!!!!!! Yep it was us that came with the 40 inch minimum rule. One year at Shooters in Olathe during one of our bigger events, a guy rolled out a slew of jump rods, not even as long as a shaft. Sold a ton of them.....all the kids in the joint were not really instructed in the proper...

    One Pocket at Chandleys Chalk and Cue

    I ran a tourney at Dellos Rack n Roll many years ago on the McDermott Tour...in Mentor...people got me and McChesney mixed up many times over the years. I was the big ugly guy with a beard...wait....so was John. LOL Maybe McChesney did run one there while I was doing another event elsewhere...
