Actually, ... no. slight or not, the cue is warped. Almost certainly in the shaft. You MAY be able to sand it down enough that it is straight for a time. But it will warp again. I promise. Dalle

Actually, I would bet more than lunch it is Paradise. Dale

There was an article about the record run printed in the Springfield newspaper a few days later. It describes the shot he missed. Dale

None. Dale

I think that wouldn't come within mile of equaling Willie's accomplishment. Dale(who is liking the mile thing today)

Thank you for finally demonstrating that you are a troll of the first order. FWIW - if you knew anything about pool at all you would understand neither of those players you mention are within a mile of Mosconi's speed at 14.1 Dale

That particular assault on terminology was the result of "Pool and Billiard" magazine. Dale

Argot... look it up. Dale

Minor hi-jack. I believe it was called East High Billiards - was it still on the upper floor when you were there? IIUC - the infamous 526 table would have still been there. Dale We now return you to regular programming.
