    A little love for Meucci?

    Probably the best Meucci I can remember seeing was a 4 point 4 veneer cue with a hoppe butt. Really sharp looking cue. Must have been a one-off because I havent seen another one.

    A little love for Meucci?

    I am not a big Meucci fan but like you their veneered pointed cues are their best efforts IMO. They did tons of sticker cues, which for life of me cant understand why anyone would want. Ken

    what pros play with maple regular deflection shafts ?

    I know this sounds crazy, but 20+ years ago there was thread where the question was what pros were playing with a Szamboti. If I remember correctly, there were several. I would be willing to bet that number has gone to 0. Time changes. Ken

    Gus Szamboti cues picture thread...

    I have a Balabushka and a couple Gus. My player cue is the 57" Gus Hoppe cue. I would buy either, but price has to be right on both. Ken

    What is up with Earl??

    Im convinced it is a combination of mental health issues and drugs. That's why I dont make fun of him or his antics. Making fun of a mental guy isnt fair game in my book. Ken

    Balabushka

    I dont think $10K would buy my Balabushka, or either of my Gus Szamboti cues. I have been offered more that $10K for my Southwest. But my Bill Schick is my favorite cue of all, and I think $5K would be a fair price for it. I have never had an issue selling a cue. Problem is I rarely sell...

    strange opinion plus question

    I suck with a house cue. Even the ones in my poolroom at home. For a cheap "going to bars" cue I got from Rick Howard is a true sneaky pete and I think I paid $400 for it a few years ago. It plays nearly as good as my more expensive cues and doesnt draw attention. I asked for straight...

    Was pool better 50 years ago?

    My view. 1.) I consider myself lucky to have seen Efren play in person many times. He is the best I have ever seen, and I have interviewed and seen most players from 50 years ago., 2.) The players today are stronger today than 50 years ago. I think alot has to do with equipment, but you...

    Teddy Bear Palmer

    Help with Palmer cue ID

    In its present condition and needing shafts, I think its worth is about 3-400. If you want to refinish with new wrap and have a shaft made, I recommend Rick Howard or maybe Proficient Billiards. Be careful as you can spend more on it than its worth on a lower value cue. Best of rolls. Ken

    Funny Things Said to You at the Pool Room

    As all of us has met a ton of characters over the years. These two one-liners came from my cousin who was a solid pool player but wasnt near shortstop level. It didnt matter what tournament he played in, even if he went 2 and out, when asked how he finished, he would always reply, "I was one...
