Eat your heart out John Barton

[Rabbit]

Hey Mr will she wants to be like Allison Fischer
Or the black widow and she Mr jacks cases she turns
7 right after my birthday she's my oldest niece
Sister has 3 girls all beautiful I been teaching her straight pool
She is going to be super strong she has the eyes the fire to win
At anything thing I started her out just dong throw out racks
And she can read patterns great but she has been raised around
Pool and get this she can name every part of a custom cue and I'm
Not talking nose butt sleeve she can tell u what every inlay is.

Thats awesome.

I recently ran into a local pool player who brought his younger son into play pool i believe hes 9.

Kid showed a instant passion for the game, he just wouldnt quit playing and on a tight gold crown table he was crushing balls into the hole but having a extremely hard time yielding the cue as it was to big for him.

So I took the large section of my jump break butt off and put a shaft on it and he was instantly better.

Told the dad "Ill build your son a cue for free just his size.:thumbup:" Kid was ecstatic and the only condition is that if he quits or no longer wants the cue then he simply has to pass it on to another kid with the same passion for the game.

We need more kids in pool.

Great job and great case!

Rabbit that's awesome why you did for that kid
And to pass it on to another when he out grows
It very nice

jimbos army is the other forum.

Why would mentioning another forum get you in trouble here?

I don't know if there is a good, reasonable answer to that. I just know that history has proven that mentioning it has had consequences in the past. Maybe that's changed. I hope it has. I can't imagine anything more petty than an online forum vs. online forum squabble. Lol

he and jack are rivals and i consider this ad

Wow she is super cute. In 20 years she might be asking my daughter to sponsor her. As for her loving Justis cases most little girls love pretty things without knowing anything about the quality inside them.

I am happy that people who pay for their stuff choose our work . Any one who wants to compare and see the inside of a Justis can come by the booth . When this cutie is old enough to understand that it is what is inside that counts i am sure her love will go to the case maker who cares more about her cues than his marketing .

 

[seale1985]

Hey John I like your style that's my case she just wantede to take a
Pic of her holding it pretty strong words I own quite the case collection
And high end cues and am a pro player and am only 27 turn 28 next month so I pay attention to who uses what

bashing other peoples work typically doesnt help promote your own work. And the majority of all pro players and tons and tons of other people play with a justis if there was actually something to worry about im sure we would know by now.

just changed my interior to bartons at the show. It's 100 times better then the justice interior. I don't hear my cues' banging around in the case any more. See I worry more about the 3 grand I have invested in the actual tools I play with then what I use to transport them. Your not a hater when your just telling the truth.

Justis cases will always be the number one case on everyone's tongue.

he may have a good interior but bad customer service i tried to order a case almost 4 times, never came through i know of at least 2 people who have been waiting for a excessive period of time for their cases locally.

So i got a Castillo.

I never hear these issues with justice.

back to the point, we need more kids in pool.

 

[trob]

really lol I'm not going to throw jack under the bus but if you heard the crap I've been told about issues with my case instead of just fixing it for me you would delete that post lol. keep your head in the sand like the rest of these idiots on here. keep allowing cue makers and case makers treat you like crap because they are perceived as elite. Im not going to say I don't love the look of my justice but I think bartons cases are every bit as good and imo the interiors are better. If you like hearing your cues bang around while just walking with your case on your shoulder then good for you. I prefer my cue's not.

btw Jack must be feeling the heat or he wouldn't have call john out in the title of a non-sense thread like this.

Not hating just stating. I will be at the SBE for 8 more hours if anyone wants to make a direct comparison for themselves.

Amen Brother! As they say a happy customer tells 10 people and an unhappy one tells everyone.

Justis cases will always be the number one case on everyone's tongue.

Tell Gil to ship me some jelly for the sale. ;-)

I don't remember getting any requests for a case from anyone named Rabbit. But I am sure you did try a couple times. Maybe one day you will get one and understand why most of my customers are willing to forgive my shortcomings with communication. They say the wait was worth it. I hope so. Anyway now I am taking orders with guaranteed delivery dates or the case is free. Ask the people who ordered CUSTOM work at the show to show you the receipts.

Oh and let's be really clear about the "most pros use" comment. It's not true that most pros use Jack's cases and even if it were so what? Pros will use what they are given for free. If we can bet enough to make it worthwhile I bet I can have a longer list of pros who use my cases in the next 12 months than Jack has ever had. Tell me the list of pros who use Jack's case where they actually PAID for it.

I would NEVER just give a pro a case and then claim it is their "choice" and use their name to market my work. If I want to use a pro's name then I will give them money or a lot of product.

So let's not use that argument to determine whose product is better. The fact is Jack does some nice work on the exterior of the case. But without the interior there is no "case" that anyone wants to buy. I tried to sell my Justis without a tube in it a dozen times this show and now one would give me $500 for it. Even when I showed them the interior and offered to include it no one would buy the case. So I think when consumers are allowed to see the guts of a case then their perceptions change a lot as to what they are really getting for the money.

Jack is more than welcome to come to my booth and dissect one of my cases. He is reportedly telling people that my case WILL harm the cue. I have $1000 that says he can't PROVE this claim in person in front of a crowd. I will let him go buy a pristine cue and let the crowd inspect it and then I want to see him damage the cue while it's inside my case.

And if he claims that the repeated rubbing on my fabric will do it then I have to ask why it's not going to hurt cues when they rub against the fabric in his case? He is more than welcome to rub the foam backed fabric we use on a cue for the whole eight hours and if it develops any damage then he can have $1000 in cash.

Meanwhile I will spend the time letting my Justis hit the floor repeatedly for 8 hours to simulate a common occurrence and we can let the crowd see if any part of the cue develops any kind of issue.

I have a video playing at my booth that shows what happens in my Justis when the case simply falls over. It's kind of shocking how many times the parts hit each other. You or anyone else is free to come over and point out why you think that it's ok of cues bang against each other this violently. Personally I doubt highly you will put your cue into a Justis and drop it from any height after seeing this video.

I will upload it to YouTube after the show and update this thread with the link.

I just came back from SBE with a new 2x4 JB case and love it, love the work, love the interior and loved the price John gave me. What else is there to be said. Will post pics next. PS John loved the little movie you made while putting one of your interiors in another case, it was priceless.

 

[resurrecta]

Anyway now I am taking orders with guaranteed delivery dates or the case is free.

My case is due by the end of the month normally... Does this also apply for me

 

[xTAPOUTx]

Hmmmmm

Well, I own a JB case and freaking love it. I have seen alot of Jacks cases and want one too. Kinda stupid he posted the "eat your hart out John Barton" on such an innocent post and ruined it. Sounds like an estranged husband and wife arguing over who gets the 5 year old over the weekend. I see it every day at work and cant believe how IGNORANT people are. Next time post the little girl with your beautiful case and post your other stupid comment somewhere else so you two can have some more senseless arguements. Def didnt make me wanna comment on the nice pic after reading the preface:angry:
