butts I don't think it takes more than 1 3/8 for a butt cap does it. I have had barasingha as big as 1 7/8 and axis over 1 1/2 In the 1 1/4 - 1 3/8 size it is common remember I am in Texas and we have some big stuff here. Ha Percy

antler I will take some pictures tomorrow of some of the axis and barasingha. They are nothing like whitetail antler. If you get an elk antler the brow tine is very solid. The rest of the elk antler is very porus. All of the whitetail antler is very porus. I use some of the axis for making pens...

osage Jim I have used a lot of Bois De Arc or osage being a knifemaker. My only problem has been that even if it is stabalized or sealed very well it always changes to a brown color because of oxidation. I would like to know if this happens to your cue it is a beautiful piece of work. Percy

butts, joints & ferrules I agree JR about the gray in some of the bone. Elk, & Moose have a lot of porus area that leaves black or gray. Axis is more solid and Barasingha being the most solid don't have these areas. You can get some very white pieces from them. I love Ivory myself on knives but...

Why do you not hear about cue makers using natural bone materials to make ferrels, joints and butt caps. There are several out there that are as nearly as hard as ivory and maybe one that is harder. Axis horn would make a great butt cap and joints and maybe ferrels. Barasingha would make either...

betterment of pool When I was in the military which is how I usually start off. On two nights a week a couple of the good players would be at the rec center and teach others how to stand and stroke and shoot. Just the basics. The manager of the recreation center wanted others to enjoy coming to...

color of money You can't believe it because you have been around a lot of pool players I guess. A lot of players would cheat their horse out of his share if he was out of the room. I will get a lot of crap but I have seen it so many times. One of the reasons I got out of the pool scene in the...

trick shots I remember in the 70's Jack White would come to the military base and do trick shots he was great and the show was the best. I played him probably 15 times at different bases,& loved it. He gave me my first nice cue a Palmer 2nd catolog L model I loved it. I played Massey in several...

ppv I think if we as a pool community would support our advertisers that have their products on the streams then there would be no need to pay for the stream. It is like paying for NBC, the advertisers pay for it you support them. I would pay for the stream but would rather buy something to...
