Love the art deco work on that cue. Looks great .

RIP Dick, Listened to the interview . There was an old road horse right there, and a library of pool info that he had gleaned from his time's. . His talking of scuffling around the gulf states brought back a lot of time's also

Gus Sneaky,,they were great cues to sneak around with:thumbup:

Don't know if he is or not , But hoping that your doing well:thumbup:

What a great piece of history to pass along, Thanks for that. Would have loved to play on that table , back when.

Steve Carter and Bob Ogburn are down in Jacksonville. Ogburn has Sam Bluminthal giving up the 7 . Bob is betting high and is laying down, or so he said. Carter told him to start stretching out. At the end of it all, Carter told Bob that he'd never seen some one lay down till they was broke. Sam...

Have noticed, when shooting the 8 across table with draw,,the 8 is in reality a black hole just sitting out there waiting for a collision. Then the colliding ball is pulled along with the black hole 8 and instead of all the draw on the cue ball. Now when the 8 comes into the area around a...

Really Like the art deco legs on that table. Interesting piece.

The 8 is even more weight than the last three.

Yep, Johnny was as road smart as there was back in his days. Sorry to have heard of his passing last year. Had great stories and a wealth of knowledge.

Number of times, someone would be asking me for the 8,,and I knew that I could slaughter them with it . Told them, I'd give em the last 3 balls on the table, they would jump on that all the time, they had no chance. The 8 was more weight , than the last 3. That 6 ball game and the break Jay...

All the best to you and hope that is a speedy recovery. Sounds like you are well on your way to having better eyesight, that's gotta be good while on the table.:thumbup:

I'll have to try that there little drill. To add, must have been in my late teens when I discovered a way to get close to,center English, or closer that what I thought was center. When looking at the cue ball, the light above the table will only show the top side of the ball, center ball hit...

Friend of mine, Bunky White,from Myrtle Beach, was steering me around in SC back in the late 70's. He had a bunch of wall posters of skaiddly dressed Pretty Ladies , that he was selling around . There was a spot he new in Charleston SC that the owner of the spot would go off if you could catch...

Thanks to all for insight into this mess. along with good advise,,muchly app.: Just got the call from the Doc and looks like it's better than I thought on one end of the spectrum. No need for the cuff surgery, but will need an MRI to find what is causing the loss of dexterity in my right hand...

Still wondering if the gent on the left is Slamming Sammy Sneade. It sure does look like him. Friend of mine (who has now past away) was one of Sneade's best'est friends and toured around with Sammy when they were young and out hustling the golf world,,sorta a coincidence they had to do that to...

Have really known that this was coming. I gave up golf a few years back, because of the right shoulder going out. The health care insurance I had before being 65 was 17,000 buck deductible along with 1,400 bucks a month. That really kept me from getting this done earlier . Ran a 137 in straight...

Well after trying to make do for a few years, looks like rota-tor Cuff is going to need repairing. Lotta diff between 60 and now 65. Wonder how this will work out with getting back into playing a bit.

Looks Like Sammy Sneade on the far left pic. I'm thinking that is William Conrad, laying on the table.

I agree with Tim, we didn't kick at balls for our dough,,,! Push out brought the cream to the top quickly. Player can get lucky in one shot foul and win the match, two shot foul and the better player will show more quickly.
