I recently acquired a Jim Odom 04 cue. My first cue by Jim. The 3rd Blue Book list him as a FT Worth Texas maker. I don't know if he is still active.

I would only consider the BK Rush if it would accept the Predator Rear Extension System. Some of my cues do not have rear extensions and I use my current break cue ( leather tip) with it's rear extension when needed. I know that these Predator BK Rush cues have some type of weight adjustment...

I recently saw this cue maker's cues being listed on E bay. He is also on Facebook. He told me that he sells out of cues quite often. Yet, I have never heard any feedback from anyone on these cues. Asking prices north of $1,000 on some of his cues. Curious as to anyone's experience with Carl...

I have been playing solo once or twice a week for the past few months on a Diamond table. It is a 9 foot Diamond, and they were installed about 2 years ago in a very small room (3) inside a bowling alley- no one working there knows anything about pool tables. They were installed as new- so...

When I think of Palmer cues, I always draw a mental picture of ebony butt sleeve and points highlighted by Mother of Pearl dots and notched diamond inlays - all contrasted by the traditional white with green spec linen wrap. After the third Palmer catalog, and the passing of Palmer founder Gene...
