    My last post

    I've been with 2 women who endured my pool playing and cue collecting passion. 1 took half when we divorced. The other is a saint to tolerate me and still feel love. Having been on both sides, I encourage you to spoil her with reckless abandon...have a great life or hold your head high when...

    I've seen a few pros cues for sale but

    I owned Efren's 3 cushion cue. I saw him use the cue at the DCC and had a picture of him with the cue. I sold it a few years later. It was a Dieckman and played out of this world...but nowhere near as well for me as for the Magician. I bought Rodney Morris' Showman cue (bearing "Rocket" on...

    Mark Griffin & Joe Tucker

    Bumps is addictive. It makes you want to play again...and not stop. If you're not a top player, practice this game and you may beat a top player...it truly changes the dynamic and requires totally new strategy and skills. It levels the playing field so anybody with decent mechanics can play...

    Wrapless or Linen cues

    Some players use a slip stroke and take advantage of the linnen feel. I sweat a lot and find that the cooler linnen suites me best. It might be worth noting that the feel of linnen varies greatly. I use the label "west coast" style to describe ultra pressed linnen wraps that feel almost...

    Whitten____ Ostrich monster____

    The look of that peanut ostrich saddle over the black leather is a great contrast. Very successful use of the exotic skin IMO. Congratulations on the design.

    Well Rounded or Confusion?

    I've seen 2 top pros who set up practice tables to most closely duplicate tour equipment. So I would argue that practice on a table similar to the one you must perform well on is a good thing and time spent on different or tougher equipment is less useful. I'm also a proponent of playing...

    Remembering "The Professor" Grady Mathews

    I had the honor of knowing Grady a bit, even being called his friend. I could tell a story or two but what stands out most for me is that Grady told it like it was...he had a gift of expressing truth without regret or hesitation. For that, I'll always see him as courageous. He counceled me...

    *** Guess the Correct Shot and Win... ***

    Thin the red on the right with high English (1 o'clock). Yellow goes off the long rail then into the natural to score after 4 or 5 cushions. I have to admit though, I like 12squared's solution. The cross table could work here.

    Accu-Stats is too expensive

    Being able to shoot strong draw...worth a thousand Being able to bank a ball well...worth 5 thousand Knowing when to do it...priceless Accu-stats commentary, under guys like Incardona and Diliberto and Grady Mathews is well worth a high asking price...we take for granted that advice from such...

    Whitten Case Question

    The easiest way to spot a light from a standard Whitten case is by looking at the tubes. Regular Whittens have a top piece that sits flush with the tube ends so all you see are the openings. Light models have the tubes only, with ends exposed, butted up against one another. Joe has made...

    need help on a meucci cue

    I agree it looks like the HOF01. Modern version of the MO7. I'm not tuned in to Meucci well enough to know if red dot was standard shaft equipment with that cue or an option. I can say, however, that I bought a similar cue many years ago that had a warped shaft. I had a cuemaker build me a...
