Jimmy Wetch started playing when he was 13/14 in the same pool room as me. By the time he was 16 he was beating everyone in the cities. Shortly after he went on the road with Dave Yeager, I believe he was from Iowa. Can anybody tell me how good a player Dave Yeager was. This would have been in the mid 80's. Thanks for any information.

Grew up watching him, Maresca, Mannicci (spelling?),Sager and a few others.

All Dave does now is fish, See him from time to time at a small lake in Dewitt, Ia. Have never talked to him but have heard alot of reason's/Rumors why he doesn't Play anymore.

Does this Dave Yeager have red hair, a long neck, and pretty tall?

I knew of a Dave Yeager back in the late 80's to early 90's that played at Raytown Recreation. He played pretty sporty.
 
Thanks chiefseabee. Could you tell me what player speedwise he would compare to today.

Yeah, He's from Clinton Ia. He looked like a walking disaster, all uncoordinated untill he put a cue in his Hand. The Last time I saw him play, Was at Hansen's on kimberly in the quad citys in 81/82.
