I have 2 jerry olivier cues, one wrapless and one with a linen wrap. I bought the wrapped thinking I'd use that as my player, and move the wrapless to a break cue. But I've found that I prefer the wrapless for playing. I like the feel, and it's less distracting when I grab near the end of the...

I like this approach. Get a one-piece that generally feels like a quality cue, but don't risk something that could lead to heartbreak. A few times I've let friends try my cue (my JO player is 11.8 mm shaft w/pro taper), they're blown away. Simple cue, but world of difference from a 13+mm house cue.

Yeah - thinking I'll go this route. Thanks!

Agreed. And good point on the chalking.

I hear ya. Mine is covered as well. Restored GC1, with new Simonis cloth.

A few years back, a guy told me that when people visit his home to play, they use cues from his collection. Not bargain-basement or standard house cues. This stuck with me as a nice idea. I'm about to finish my own pool room, and am considering the same approach. I have 2 house cues that came...

Yeah, it’s been a tough search. It was a family cue; uncle sold it to someone at the Expo in PA several years ago. I’m trying to retrieve it now. And thanks for the offer with your cue. I‘m not really collecting them, and already have a Model 11 on-hand. Happy to work that into a trade for the...

Giving this another shot. I'd be open to a trade for the 1st catalog Model 11 that I have in my posession. Busha-esqe butt, 2 shafts, original case.

Hello all - I've been playing off-and-on for years (in my late 40s now), but really started to take the game seriously in last couple of years. Trying to get to rooms in Philly suburbs lately; will be taking lessons, and hope to join a league eventually. Pool is a family thing, so it's about...

I typically use Taom chalk at home, but tend to use Master chalk if that's what is avail at local pool hall or friend's house. When I make that switch, I'll scuff the tip a bit to remove excess old chalk and then apply the new stuff pretty thoroughly. So - opinions on switching back-and-forth...

Another yes for Markley. Friendly place. And tables are in very good shape.

Looking for a particular Palmer cue. 1st Catalog, Model 11. Last name in window is Wurtz. Please reach out if you have it, have seen it, or know where I should be looking. Thank you!
