    new player, ivory hoppe coco, 7 veneers.

    Now, That's a great looking hoppe cue! If it hits like it looks you better start a waiting list. This is one of those cues that perfectly uses that sweet dark brown phenolic. I also love those veneer colors paired with cocobolo. Thanks for sharing your work, Kevin

    Ordering a New -R- Custom

    Really nice design and I would also play with those specs. Jerry's a great guy to build it for you. I had one similar but from another maker and it got grabbed up by my only other pool playing relative. He kept saying how that design reminded him of his old days in playing with early...

    Very Fancy Original Balabushka

    Very beautiful cue. Congrats. It looks like after it's 4th or 5th decade in existence it's primed and ready for some playtime. Wonder who the previous owner was but he or she clearly loved that beauty as it's in great shape.

    FS: Steve Klein - Szamboti forearm

    Amazing! If only I had a free $2650. I know where it'd be going. Beautiful cue Joe! Maybe I'll get to see it at SBE if I can get there and no one snaps it up before then. GLWYS! Kevin

    LP Custom Hoppe Style Cue

    Thanks Josh! Lee sure does a great job on creating those sweet fat points which touch so nicely at the base of the outside veneers. I really love playing with this cue. It also really amazes me how well he did on matching the woods including the honey colored sugary shafts and veneers to my...

    How much difference does a balance point make?

    For me to feel really comfortable with a cue, no matter what the weight of the cue happens to be, the balance point has to be forward of 18.5" from the butt cap. I started playing initially with cues that felt rear weighted and could play well with them but once I felt a neutral to forward...

    LP Custom Hoppe Style Cue

    Hi Mike. Thanks! The Ferrules are LBM and the tips are Moori Mediums(the good ones that don't glaze over as fast as some of the newer ones do).

    3 Tascarella's

    2nd that! The one on the left is also my favorite of the three and I'm sure it plays as good as it looks.

    LP Custom Hoppe Style Cue

    *****Update****** I finally got to hit with regulation size balls on a regulation size table and this cue hits great. IMO it feels like a full spliced cue and it's half splice construction. Lee's joining technique really locks the pieces together and transfers energy well. This cue can really...

    Which league would you choose and why?

    Option 2---Learn to win! If C+ is your overly critical rating of your skills then you're not far from the players in the second option anyway, especially if the higher league goes from B- to A. C+ is basically right up there with B- as far as I'm concerned. Minimal difference between those...

    Free Shaft Maint. Package

    2nd that! I got to put some table time in this weekend and I feel the same way! Really sweet hitting cue that's not going anywhere! I also can't believe how long it's taking for this FREE GIVE AWAY to fill up. Have a good one! Kevin

    Am I the Only One Who Loves Brown Phenolic?

    I like it too when it's paired up with nicely figured woods of similar hues. Some day I'll have one like that too. Really nice cues Mr. Tucker!

    Guess the cue makers but

    Not sure who made it but it sure is a nice cue butt. I'll bet the forearm on that thing is pretty sweet too! Can't wait to see the whole thing!

    Niels is a Beast

    It's definitely possible that being sick may have helped. Certainly can take the expectation off of what you can do and free wheeling takes over. Skies the limit if you don't let being sick take over your thought process. My record is real good in tournaments on what most other people would call...
