Earl and Meucci again..
- Thread starter elizabeth
- Start date
I asked him about that today and he said that its ok.personally i think it is ashame hes been in more than anyone and his record there has been great.hey but its ok and their choice..Go USA
Hey one step at a time..lol~
Thank you I just believe in him and know him well enough to stand by him good and bad...
I would have said it a little diffrent but "Me Too"
I have a white Cuetec that I won in a raffle in Winston Salem in 1997 when Earl was doing an exibition at Cue n Spirits. Earl shot the exibition with it that day. It was right off the shelf. Fiberglass shaft and all....I shot with that cue for four or five years. It developed a crack in the fiberglass in the shaft. In 2002 or 2003 Earl was shooting at Breakers in Greensboro. My friend calls me to tell me....I tell him to ask Earl if he has a shaft that he would sell... for my Cuetec I won from him. Earl says "Cuetec right" and GIVES him the shaft for me. Earl is good dude. I will always be a fan of his.... And that shaft I still have, it is wood, no fiberglass and has the " Earl taper". about 11.7mm and 25 in taper. I now have a Joss with the shaft tapered the same way. I'll never get rid of that stick. GO EARL.........

Gotcha Lisa......I wuz only joking anyhow. I have never met you, but just reading this whole thread with your responses, you are a special person to anyone not just Earl. I should be lucky to meet you one day on the tourny trail.
Goodnite Lisa,
Frankie
You say that but Earl using those two cue brands amassed more major titles than any other player in the history of the game.
And Meucci and Cuetec cues have been used to win more titles than any other brand. So one can ridicule them but it's like ridiculing AOL when AOL has the most subscribers. They may not be your cup of tea but the success can't be argued with.
Mr. Strickland is without a doubt one of the top four pocket billiard players to have ever lived. Mr. Ardeno, would you provide confirmation or clarification of my assumption here?
His company includes, Willie Mosconi, Luther Lassiter, and Ralph Greenleaf.
There is not another player living who is even close to the amount of US Open and World Championship titles this man has won.
Personally, I would love to see Mr. Strickland return to form.
I gotta say when I watched him before he went to cue-tec he was on fire, always playing amazing.
not sure if it means much

wow.....this post is so full of dumb I don't know where to start.
Congrats to you Lisa
Lisa thank you for giving Earl the support he needs. Earl has always been my favorite player to watch and IMHO is the best 9 ball player ever to walk this earth. I would love to see him back into the spotlight and witness his amazing ability. Meucci was the first cue I owned and has always been a good cue. I hope Earl finds everything he thinks he has lost. Good luck to Bob and yourself for helping Earl.

Wow, Meucci and Earl...a classic!
tduncan...Yes...Meucci was never in Biloxi. It has been in Olive Branch MS forever, which is just across the river from Memphis.

Scott, the Meucci plant moved from Olive Branch to Sledge, MS (which is farther from Memphis) in 1995. The company then moved again in November, 2006 to Byhalia, MS -- which is back fairly close to Memphis.
Wow! Lol
LMAO!
Uhm, he won ALOT with a Cuetec. ALOT.
Uhm, he WAS the best nineball player in the world, for quite a while.
Uhm, he hasn't played with Cuetec for a number of years now...been playing with a Gulyassy.
And uhm...lol, has the word "Lucasi" ever even been uttered from Earl's lips?
This is obviously from a guy that thinks the old truckdriver C-player thats teaching him to play right now, is the best player in the world? lol.

Well, Earl didn't have nice words to say about Cuetec. I thought he said something like it was the worse thing for his career.
Why did he leave Meucci?
Hopefully, Earl will work with Meucci to improve designs and workmanship.
The old Meucci's and the new Meucci's are not the same.
The cue I have had the longest and won't get rid of it is a 91 Meucci, only 500 made. The new Meucci's are not made with sharp points like that anymore.
The new Black Dot shaft might be something better however. I actually like how the Black Dot shaft hits. I'm sure he will do better with a Meucci than a Cuetec.
What are the cues he has played with after Cuetec?

LMFAO
Meucci cues are pretty a poor excuse for a cue. IMO the old ones were too for the most part. But alot of cues were bad then, and it seems that nostalga we like to say or think they were great cues. I have had probably 50 of them over the years and they werent much compared to most of the custom cues of today. Thats true of cars and alot of things too.
I giggle when I see folks say they had "one" that played great. IMO, they wouldnt know a great cue if they saw one.
Earl could or can play with any cue. So saying he plays great with a Meucci is in my opinion an insult to Earl and to anyone with a clue.
It isnt the arrow boys, its the indian.

Hey Lisa
I was in the elevator, by myself, at the Holiday Inn at the 1992 U.S. Open, when you and Earl bust in, laughing and having a good old time. I was a 17 year old geek from Michigan who had to get back to school on Monday. I had a headache and you gave me some aspirin. Can you imagine me, as big a pool fan as you could be back then and friggin Earl and this beautiful lady are standing right next to me! Big thrill for me at the time. He was like Mickey Mantle to me. Anyway, good luck to you two!

This is good news for Earl and I hope this will help him in his quest to winning big tournaments again. I met Bob Meucci at the US Open and he was a nice guy to talk to. He said that he loved to play golf and he'd been playing a lot lately. I remember years ago when Earl played with Meucci cues and he did very well using them.
