That really is a great looking cue!

Congrats Mark! Sounds like a great program to be a part of. Hopefully more schools will follow this one's example. Billiards with all it's disciplines is a natural fit for higher education. I wish I had had a shot at a scholarship based on pool. That would have been a collegiate dream come true...

Nice Cue! Interesting inlays..Are those eyes on the butt end of your cue?!

The best thing I have done to fix this problem was go to a mall luggage store where I picked up a black leather non-slip shoulder pad to put on the strap. It was much better after that. There are lots of stores that sell non-slip shoulder pads online or in their stores. Do a google search and...

Now that's a beautiful Martinez and real hard to come by. I've always liked even his basic six pointers and this is far from basic. Enjoy it! Ernie makes sweet hitting cues.

Sweet Tasc! Great pics. The finish looks great and the wrap looks amazingly. Gotta love the hoppe! Especially when done by a master builder like Pete! Congrats on this acquisition and please share pics of the one they're building when you can.

I've also see this combination look really good with a bight red or blue veneer between the white and the black veneers.

LOL...Sorry, meant two moves before checkmate...thanks for catching that!

If it's for any fun type of play and there's nothing of consequence on the line I tell them, especially if they're beginners. We were all beginners at one point and made these mistakes too. I really appreciated the kind people that pointed silly stuff like this out to me. Especially when I did...

Lee Peppers Hoppe Here's my 2011 LP Hoppe.

My Leon Sly Hoppe...Gaboon ebony into Curly maple.

Here's my latest Hoppe from Lee Peppers...Gaboon Ebony into dark American rosewood.

Nice video. It's definitely good enough for the guys in the ask the instructor section to give you a lot of good information. Hopefully they'll chime in here too. I'm not an instructor but what I see is that you aren't really shooting with your forearm and wrist in a pendulum stroke with your...

Great looking Hoppe! Love the bright veneers, the brown undertones in African black wood and the proportions of the Hoppe ring to the butt cap that Bob uses. Enjoy it! Good shooting to you sir!

Very cool offer. Signed up! Thanks!

With all this said...about drilling a hole to cut back on end mass therefore giving less deflection then; What about shafts with ferrules that are attached by a metal tenon(think it might be aluminum in most cases)? i.e. Spain, Palmer and Hercek Does that mean that a maker who does this is...

Option B :) Option B, looks much better to me too. I'm not sure exactly why but it looks like the stroke you put on the CB will convey through the pack from a little more distance than at option A. When considering option A it makes me want to use more spin and speed to get a similar result as...

They look like really nicely made cues but I hope he doesn't sign them like that.

Wow! This is now my favorite box cue! Looks like one hell of a player. Thanks for sharing. Kevin

How about " Bautista's Palette" or "The Palette" by Bautista?
