old titlist

[sluggerknuckles]

Hi everyone and thank you in advance for your answers and opinions.

I was thinking about trying to get an old hoppe brunswick. I like old cues and so many of the greatest cue makers use them.

Can anyone comment on how they hit?

This may sound stupid, but I read on the internet that the wood was high quality back in the late 60's in the brunswick shops and everyone states how the old spains and bushkas hit. i thought that maybe getting a hoppe would be similar to them and if nothing else, its a cool old cue.

I have five different titlist conversions and all play different from one another depending on how they were converted and what materials are used in the joint, ferrule, tip, etc...

Depending on which I use they play from stiff to soft and in-between. In my opinion they are like any cue you have built except that the wood is aged really well.

Good luck with getting your hands on one.

There are also several different generations of Brunswick Titlist. Best to do some research first, IMHO.
