Pete Omen makes a great JB that is very playable

If Raleigh gave you a bad impression, you were most definitely on the wrong side of town. It's a VERY clean city overall.

Lot of great rooms in the area. Brass Tap on Capitol blvd in Raleigh is probably the best known action room. Browns is nice too. I always enjoyed babineaux is Cary.

Rip crawfish.

That's a big 10-4. I probably wrote 10 messages that went unanswered all while he was logging on to azbilliards daily. His messages that week were about action and the action he had coming up.

Wow, well, that's funny. Hate airing bad laundry but here we go. several years ago, I answered an ad for an Omen he had listed. After we agreed on a price, I promptly PP'ed it his way and he said he would send the cue asap. I figured it wouldn't take long since we're literally a couple hours...

Amen. We bemoan why pool has a problem attracting new players all the while making the table less satisfying for beginners to play on. I don't care who you are but when you're just starting out, hitting balls on a table and not making anything gets old in a hurry. Can't really blame them for...

The tight pocket debate has been waged a million times already. I still believe that unless a table is going to be exclusively a one pocket table or an action table, anything smaller than 4 1/4" actually detracts from the game, moreover if your table is solely for recreational purposes. I can...

Unless you're in love, run fast and far on that one. going to cost far more to get it in playable shape than it would cost to find a GC or another Anniversary in much better condition. I recently had Mark Gregory build my Anniversary and have seen what he's done to get it to play up to modern...

When I used to live out that way, I had him put a pin in a house cue that I really liked and it turned out perfect. He's also done several tips for me as well. Pleasant and very fair with his pricing.

I've been to his shop and seen his setup and work first hand. He is the master Yoda of the Brunswick Anniversary, only taller and less brown. He is literally building his own rails from scratch now and could probably build the entire table from the ground up if he truly wanted/needed to. There's...

Beauty! My Mark Gregory Anniversary is coming soon. Pics to follow.

What a beautiful table. I sold my Formica railed Anni years ago for a boat and have missed it ever since. Now that finances are better, I knew I wanted... Needed another one. Mark is currently finishing mine up as well and I can't wait until its all set up. Stay tuned for more pics

short rail straight back, long rail straight back, 3 rail

1. Buy/bribe influence in the local school board to allow a table in all the area middle and high schools. Justify it with a math/physics/geometry kind of spin. Let the kids get a taste for game at the same early age that I did. If kids want, they can come in before school or after school to...

A few months back, I scored this George cue off the auction site and really like it a lot. Any idea what model it is? Is the white stuff the genuine fancy white stuff? Both shafts are original and straight and I'd like to keep it that way, but prefer a 12.75 mm tip. What's a ballpark price...

Where would you guys put Richie Peck that used to run the poolroom out in Bellmore?

Have had great run-ins except one several years ago. Answered a listing on an Omen merry widow, decided on an acceptable price and paypaled the money that day.. Few days later and no response. Finally track down some posts from the seller on the board talking about the action he had coming up...

I recently acquired an older Ebony on maple 4 point 4 veneer with ivory spears George cue with a black and white fleck linen wrap. Beautiful cue and plays great. I've never been a huge linen wrap fan and wanted to put either a black ring tale lizard or a textured leather wrap on it. My question...

What a beauty, Mark.
