Hi Dennis,

I've heard those cues have a super sweet sound when striking the cueball.
 
Good job Dennis....again! Where did you pick this one up at? I played a guy at Chris's who had a really unique EY...it broke away at 8 inches above the bumper, quick release joint....he was using it as a jump cue and he said it was instrumental in bars where the walls were too tight to stroke. The awesome thing was, it was a linen wrapped cue and Ed did a great job as usual on the wrap. Happy New Year!

Ed was right there with me when I was talking to you and Alex.

I was picking up a shaft he made for me.

At the end, I asked him about a cue I heard he was selling and he pulled it out and gave me a price. He said he forgot he had it. Somebody was upgrading and needed to sell it. He called, and the deal was done.

To Scotty: Really nice ping on the Ed Young cues. He told me he talked to Danny at Windy. If DH wants to hit with one, I'll bring a few with me to DCC. Dennis

To Ray: This is the one Erik never pulled the trigger on.
I'm at IBC tomorrow if you got nothing to do.
Eddy's leaving for DCC Thursday.

Congrats Dennis. Actually it's not that Erik never pulled the trigger on it...Ed was supposed to get back to me on that. Looks like he forgot / decided to do something else instead.
 
Congrats Dennis! I picked up one on az a while back. Nice cue. I'd like a DPK if you hear of one please let me know.

Sure wish I could get away and see you and others at DCC.

I guess I know what you are talking about. Ed didn't return my calls or emails or ims for months and then suddenly he shows up with my shafts and more.

By the way, Zaksis had a few shafts made for his SW. He is talking about selling it and thinks it's worth 3500-4000. 1985 cue. overpriced??
 
Nice cue, Dennis!

Hello Dennis:

Happy new Year! Very nice cue! You just cannot decide to collect Davis conversions or Ed Young/Kersenbrook plain janes, or? ;)
Btw, when are you leaving for the DCC?

Best
Michael

You are right, Michael. The Davis conversions are nice, but the EY and Kersenbrock are rather special, too.

Are you back in the states yet?

I'm playing Paul Chovan Thursday. Hope I do better than some against him.

I'm leaving for DCC Saturday morning. Latimer is leaving tomorrow.
 
Jim: Very nice cue. You are the quiet one, aren't you. How does the hit compare to your many SWs, your Sailors, and others?

I'll keep my ears open for you.
 
I can't tell much difference between the hit of the EY and the post Franklin SW's I have. I still think that the 85 SW I have (turns out it's not a DPK :( ) is the best hitting cue in captivity and I have another Franklin that I think is a slightly, just very slightly better hit than the EY or the post Franklins I have or have had. Of course it's all subjective.

I have a Sugartree and at least two Sailors that are right up there with these cues and I now have 4 Chuck Starkey's that are just dynamite.... maybe better than ANY of the others.

My Sailor playing cue now is equipped w/a Predator Z2 and that may be the combination I use forever. Love it.

Have fun at the Derby!!!!!!!! And I would really appreciate it if you do keep your ears open for a DPK for me...... HEY WORLD... HEAR THAT?? :D
