Ode To Tim and Mike

I`ll second that motion bnall. Leon sure is doing some beautiful cues these days. Hoping to stop by his shop in the next month or two.

From the work I have seen on here of Leon Sly he just may fill some of the HUGE void left from Tim and Mike.

Brian, I'm sure Leon will humble when seeing this fine compliment posted. I agree that Leon is very capable. Leon also loves Tim and Mikes cues as much as we do.

From what I have seen Leon's work has been getting better and better.

I already told him that as soon as he makes a bridged point cue I will be ready to make a purchase.

The awesome caps that Alton made to match the cue.

I only ever corresponded with Mike via email and he always came across as a very nice guy and was always extremely helpful, some thing that is often lacking in the billiard world. He will be missed.

Man, I really miss that guy.

John, you have some really nice cues by Tim and Mike but i have a soft spot for the blue veneer Mike Cochran cue.

Worst mistake I ever made was to sell the last two I had made by Tim and Mike. Both were phenomenal cues, made by phenomenal men.
