Hi all,

I just bought this cue from Casey, and love it!! While he's great to do a deal with....his photo skills are a bit lacking!!! :D :p :D Mine aren't that much better, but I wanted to post a few up of my new cue so ya'll can take a look.

I had Rick Phillippi put a couple Moori Mediums on the shafts, and the cue plays incredible. Even though it didn't have a stainless piloted joint, I just had to buy it and check it out. I'm SOOOO happy I did. The cue plays great, and looks fantastic.

We all know how I am with my cues....so God only knows how long it'll be with me.....but for the immediate moment, this is my player! :) ;)

Agreed!! ;) :) You get first rights on it, if/when I sell (emphasis on when, I think).

While it's a bold statement to make, Vin.....especially for me....this cue outplays half the Black Boars I've owned (I'm up to 6 BB cues, now).
 
Congrats, Mark. My White with the piloted ivory joint has moved to the top of my favorite hit list. Similar feel to the piloted SS, but just a touch livelier.

I think you'll be happy if you keep it.

BTW - you got it at a great price, too. :cool:

Yes, sir.....the cue plays fantastic, and Casey treated me VERY well on it. I have no complaints.

I haven't seen ya around these parts much lately, sir. Been hanging out elsewhere?? ;)

Hope all's well with ya...and have a great weekend.

Nice looking cue Mark. Piloted ivory joint. Right up my alley. Before you sell it, I need to hit a few. Lets hook up next week.

Ran into Mark and saw the cue in person.
It is a beauty of a cue that is well balanced.
Did not take any test hits with but maybe another time I will.
But I do have the other White cue that Mark used to own and it is a sweet hitting cue.

Actually, I told Mark the same thing to head up north.
Either way we need to get together and play.

Mark was in awe since I had both cues in my avatar with me.
He loved the BOTI but I had to threaten to take away his coffee if he did not release the Black Boar.

Back to the regularly scheduled cue in this gallery thread.
Another James White that is a real beauty and Mark was making some nice shots with it.

Very nice.... i had a JW with the identical design... Just a different color of the same wrap.... and different color veneers

They hit great...
