    Why did Roberto Gomez need to play in a US Open qualifier?

    But to the dreamers its a chance. Many of the dead money players dream of "the chance". I might be one but age is starting to be a problem:p

    Melling at it again- superb runout at the KC Open

    Very few warm up strokes. Pushes through most his shots and doesn’t spend a lot of time thinking about it. I hope he gets to the Denver tournament.

    Ultimate Pool KC Open

    Congrats to Chris Melling There seems to be nothing the man can’t do on a pool table. Except make balls on the snap. Chris still found a way to win. The man can play.

    What the Hell is this cue...

    I cant help you but your description is spot on. And yes,Rich cue seems close. Maybe a Rich cue that had been modified? It looks like Brazilian Rosewood...maybe?

    Ultimate Pool KC Open

    Jordan “Welsh Wizard” Shepherd Played amazing, very few mistakes. I really enjoyed the format and watching Jordan play. Jordan's pattern play and speed were amazing. His ability to nudge clusters open was another level. Not enough O's in smooth.

    I went to a cue show in Denver years ago. There were several Oak Titlists on display. Very cool cues.

    Why doesn't Schmelke's website have good cue photos?

    I just ordered a 60" sneaky light weight cue from them for a friend. They now have a flat finish. I tried that cue and it feels great. I like the new finish also.

    Challengers were typically one piece Maple cues with stained/painted points. But I have seen a few real spliced Oak cues with the Challenger decals on them. I have one myself.

    1st cue from left 1940 to 45ish. 2nd 1946 to around 51. From 52 for the next 9 or 10 years would cover the 3rd label. And the fourth was from the early 60's until the green and white labels started. Just info that I have collected from the web.

    Well, hell. That’s a fine looking bunch of fat butts. That Keen Shot’s label way nicer than mine. What’s the ferrule on that cue made from?

    The Hoppe Sisters

    Thanks. It is nice that these four cues all have original shafts, although I am not sure that the shaft for my earliest Hoppe is original to that cue(far left).

    That would be on the list! Getting the HI-RUN, CAROM KING and the MEDALIST are also on my list but they are a little hard to come across.

    I thought a few of you may enjoy the four different blue label Brunswick Professionals.

    Question about sanding down a shaft

    Sounds like you may have the sandpaper upside down. JK, I sand a lot also. Very hard on the fingers. Glad you got your permit.

    weight in one pocket,what to do?

    Giving up the break should be worth a ball. I have a feeling you are not playing at full speed against him, so giving up balls might just make you play harder. It may not make a difference until you have settled on 10/5
