Howard cue Jay,Please check your PMs.BTW you cant go wrong with a Scruggs or Cochran.Super folks to deal with.Mike S.

Ahh yes the notorious "church style player" who as we all know trembles,cries,covers his(her) head at the mention of the abomination of gambling.I go to church and am a Christian but also enjoy Derby City,this forum,and most pool related items.You really should get out more.Your stereotypes...

I have seen pictures of and heard Toby Sweets name several times so have to ask a newbie question;is he still playing presently?Mike S.

TS or MC cues I will just add to what everyone else has said;you wont regret purchasing a cue from Tim and Mike.I am not a particularly strong player but i have owned a lot of cues and been in the business world over 25 years and i can tell you for certain there are no better cues or no finer...

Mike Cochran Actually,Mike has worked with Tim Scruggs for many years but in the last year or so has begun to build some cues under his name(MC cues).He built a few several years ago but very few and hard to get.Anyone who has ever dealt with Tim or Mike knows what class acts they are and the...

really rare copy I have the rare session where Bing Crosby does all 12 live at the Skullbone Music Park near Bradford Tn.On a couple of numbers Lawrence Welk actually does backup vocals and accordian.Talk about a head banging session.Mike

If you assume a high qulity maple shaft,only maintained by occasional cleaning with damp cloth,drying vigorously,then burnishing with leather(never sanding),after say 25 yrs of playing with that shaft for 20 hrs per week would there be a noticable decrease in diameter?M.S.

Please respond Mr Ronoh

How many AZBers have an "irreplacable cue" as your main player?By irreplacable i mean a rare cue(special cue by retired or deceased cuemaker,rare titlest conversion,etc) that literally cant be replaced exactly.I think a cue that coundnt be replaced for sentimental reasons qualifies also.If so do...

Meeself agrees

My Bad ****Sorry bout that,I jumped in late and didnt take time to read all the posts.M.Sellers

New Room Is it possible to make it with some food(pizza,sandwiches,sodas),pro shop,music,and top notch equipment without alcohol?For personal reasons i have no desire to sell it.Not moralizing here,just a personal preference.M.S.

***Jer,I dont know you personally and dont know anything about building cues but i can tell from your post that you are a wise man and no doubt a gentleman.Mike S.

TS and MC You wont find two better fellows inside or outside of the cuemaking business.Mike S

Bushwacker Gary is a super guy to work with on cues.Have bought 3 from him and hope to buy more.Good luck with the room Bushwacker!Mike Sellers

"same concept"? No,Its not the same concept at all.Those Spain/Szamboti forearms were made FOR Balabushka to use in HIS cues.The Titleist conversions are done on cues NO LONGER MADE that were all made somewhat generically by a company.What you are talking about here is one living cuemaker...

For what its worth As a collector and fan of Tim Scruggs and Mike Cochran I have to throw my thoughts in here:A cue made by these two as a team or individually doesnt need to be "reworked" by anyone to enhance its value.Their quality as cuemakers and character as men speak for themselves.Mike...

A question for some of the veterans on the forums;I know that in general the use of english is discouraged beyond what is absolutely necessary and the trend in recent years in the U.S. has been toward lighter cue weights(19.5 and under).However in watching E.Reyes and some of the other players...

Becoming tired 5Ball,I am 46,a bit pudgy and my eyesight is questionable.Your post and the responses have worn me completely out.I have got to go rest.M.S.

Ball banger Gregg,I too have a $2000 cue PLUS a custom case but i have something on you still.I bet i can easily miss shots that you routinely pocket.Mike
