    St. Louis Louie vs. Archer 1990

    No, that isn't one they would post on youtube. I had to buy a copy on ebay years ago.

    St. Louis Louie vs. Archer 1990

    You should watch the Accu-stats match, Keith McCready versus AZB's very own (RIP) Gary "Bushwhacker" Nolan. Gary was a MONSTER player and the 9 ball match between he and a prime-time Keith went to the hill. The commentary was extraordinary, LOL...with Grady, et al, in rare form. A must see.

    Kevin Cheng.. any sightings????

    First time I saw him play was in that southern bar table tournament, which he won. He had that pretty SW cue and a cool playing style. Next thing I know he won the US OPEN 9 Ball championship. I sure hope I get to see him battling on the tournament trail again.

    How to clean wood shaft after every use?

    Dry paper towel. Wipe the cue down after use for the day. I like my shaft(s) to get seasoned.

    Mark Wilson on sidespin to pocket balls

    I can remember figuring out inside english, and how useful it could be for position play. Man, I was spinning everything with inside for a good year, LOL.

    Mark Wilson on sidespin to pocket balls

    Yes, outside was always referred to as "helping" english when I was growing up.

    Mark Wilson on sidespin to pocket balls

    Agreed. To a new player i would advise to learn on the center axis of the cue ball. Get proficient with your stroke and fundamentals. Then start exploring english, because at that point you would truly understand how spin affects the cue ball/object balls.

    Best Player/Business Successes

    I just wanted to add that I'm super impressed by Nick Varner who is now 70+ years old. He was always a business man, even as a pro player. He would order cues made to his specs from JOSS early on, and then sell them himself to pool rooms around the country building relationships/networks along...

    Up and coming cue makers to invest in???

    Although I agree with much of the advice that my respected friends on here have provided you, I'll give you some alternative guidance. Contact Stephen Janes at Joss Cues. Order the best cue you can for the $800. In fact, I'd tell him what your end goal is with the cue. He might find the story...
