My competition sports/Adam tribute cues

[JamesK41]

Just wanted to share my Adam/competition sports tribute cues. Most of these are super rare and ultra hard to find. Hope you enjoy.

I have one from the Japan factory and it is top notch.

Fabulous collection. Amazing cues. Thanks for the pictures.

Great collection of cues and the condition of them looks mint. Love the old Adam cues.

Great collection.

Dirty little misunderstood secret… Competition Sport was not Adam Cues USA. It wasn’t a continuation of Adam. Nothing like that. They were a completely different entity started by Don Spetkar , who had no ownership in Adam. There seems to be a confusion that Competition Sports was an extension of Adam USA. It was not.

There’s more, but that’s enough. I can answer any question based on recent interviews (with everyone alive that had something to do with Adam USA and Competition Sports.)

Isn't Don on AZB?

I always liked those but never bought one. Probably should have. I think I called and talked to the guy Cornerman mentioned once. When I started playing several guys at the pool hall I went to had Adam cues and a couple had the fancy ones. Always liked the look.

Possibly. I interviewed him last month in my ongoing gathering of the Adam timeline and recorded everything so I didn’t misquote.

I think it’s just a case of nobody bothering or caring to ask. It’s amazing what people can find out if they ask. In my case, I had great interviews with:

Jed Foreman - son of David Foreman, founder of Adam Cues

Patty Vorilas - one of the earliest employees at Adam USA and the last owner of the initial iteration of Adam USA

Don Spetkar - former Adam employee and founder of Competition Sports
