I have put together a Teechip store to sell some of the classic T-Shirts and some prints that people ask about from time to time. The way it works is orders are taken for a week then whatever sold is printed and shipped. Shipping is quoted by teechip at 7-10 days after the sale ends. I have...

I didnt watch the Ko/Dennis match but I paid attention to social media and the forums and I saw something that made me just shake my head. John French is backing Dennis and right after the match is over announces he will be staking the Ko brothers. I have read that he talked about it during the...

I have had this for about seven years. I owned the cue it was made for less than that. Its a long story how I ended up with one SW shaft but I did. About six years ago I took it to the SouthWest shop and was able to get the ferrule replaced with some of the very little micarta they had left...

Its going to take me a minute to get to the point but stick with me here.... Over the past few years I have gotten into custom knives. The parallels between the custom knife market and the custom cue market are many: -They both are made up of mostly one man shops and a few larger ones...

There seems to be some confusion or miscommunication or just normal internet noise about the status of The Action Report. Some of that is probably my fault so I want to clear things up. This gonna be long so for the TL;DR crowd: TAR is still around just doing things differently. For the readers...

I just released TAR 31 on the TAR On Demand channel on Vimeo. This one was a lot of fun to do as both guys were talking a lot before it kicked off. This match is where the infamous equine intercourse quote came from. Format was 10 ball race to 27, best two out of three sets. You can check out...

One of my sources sent me a pre-release copy of the 2015 poster. I think its a winner.

These are things I have saved over the years that I thought were cool. Some for a long time. Others like the photos I just had an idea that I thought would be cool and made them. Prices are firm. It won't hurt my feelings to keep any or all of this stuff. Payment via PayPal. I will only ship in...

This was one of my favorite matches we ever did. To this day it was one of the wildest things I have ever seen in a pool match. It also was the weakest I ever saw Shane get for a minute. Donny had him on the ropes. Theres a great story line in this match and it was a lot of fun to sweat it live...
