Tell June we want a picture of you two old farts...and the cue.

Sounds like a fine time.

june was eager to take pictures of the two of us testing the cue,but Billy needed to meet at his house to show me his table and at a time when June was teaching school


she also refers to us with different terms of endearment

but you are correct,i am a couple of months older than billy,
he is no youngster and will probly need large handicaps to get out and
among them

such a shame,he is now loaded with ammunition for playing,and has lots of gamble,but when the back,the eyes,the stamina and perhaps the heart that
so characterized him for years,Billy might have become easy pickings


I hear you"say it isn't so Joe"

I have seen my own game drop to less than half what it was a year ago and i didn't
have much room to drop,i was already a D player by any standards

hopefully, the old draw cue will still work again today

Make a video or the test didn't happen. I'm dubious to say the least so one of you guys get out your phone and make a little movie.

If the magic in the cue is gone the tip (if original to the cue) may be the culprit. What ever the case we are interested in the results.
Good luck!

ive got cues 50 years old with original tips and they still draw and hit the same as any newer cue.

Results from the test with Billy Incardona

the tips were/are original

Today Billy hit several shots with the sneaky pete that Josey made for me in 1992
At that time Jack Potter,Jerry franklin,Bob Vanover ,Dick lane and several others experienced great unheard of results

Today Billy set up several shots with the josey and with his two playing cues,South West and
Cognosenti

The so called Draw Stick might have very slightly drawn further,but not enough to validate my
exaggerated praise,Was it the age of tip,wood,who knows?

Billy did ask me who made it and ,I told him Josey

He said"I could play with this cue",I was pleased to hear this.
If you are considering a sneaky pete and if josey still does them
you might want to try one

He said he would like to buy a couple because it was really a great cue,

but over all I am a bit disappointed that it didn't match up to my memories.

Scott hit balls that spun in place and then raced up to the end and back,Tommy Rey
hit a few that did better than he was used to.

Magic was too strong a word,very nice,easy to draw,feels soft..yes

I am returning the cue to Dennis to place in his fabulous hall of fame collection.
This cue actually impressed the best cue maker alive Jerry Franklin back in the day

I feel like it earned its way in.

Videos are not coming forth because I don't have anything worth your time to
show you.

I apologize for taking so much of your time

Dean
