How do you feel about women versus good cigars? :smile:
 
Neither my 1963 Wille Hoppe Professional cue, nor my Anniversary predate myself.

1948 (68 and still pumpin' air...). :thud:
 
My break cue might be older than me

I will be 62 tomorrow. My birthday and Easter is the same day and I probably won't be around for the next time that happens in 2157.

The cue I play with is a 1950s Titlist that was converted by Mike Pancerny. The cue is about as old as me, give or take a year or two.

I wonder if it will be around in 2157.

I like that cue.
You think Mike could do something with an older '70s Palmer (catalog 3 cue 8)) and turn it into a good player?
It's not all original, PFD replace the window and foil.
 
Ferrules

I would think he could and he does excellent work. I don't know how busy he is, but you should give him a call to find out.

I have another old A. E. Schmidt Titlist conversion that I'm going to get worked on, but I haven't decided how much of it I want to keep original.

It has a lot of plastic in it too. I bought it new in 1973 and it is still in pretty good condition, but I need to get it shined up a bit and the butt sleeve worked on or replaced and get a new bumper. The shafts are good, but I want them cleaned. The wrap is in good condition but very dirty from being played so much for many years. I would like to keep the original wrap if it can be cleaned up some.

You can see it at the links below:

This is a pool forum, gentlemen.
Do you think y'all could tell us what kind of cues they are?

At least give us a hint...does the name start with SZ......
....or sumthin'?

Not sure, but I think this cue is older than me.

I do ride a bike to the pool hall that is the same age as me.

I have cherry green label Mali with no shaft .
Someone removed the weight bolt and its super lite .

As in value, I would be loosing money if I made a shaft for it and sold the cue ..

I cant help to think that it would be a good shooter, maybe I will change the pin to a 3/8x10 and make a shaft for it...:thumbup:

I picked up a green- label mali recently, and it plays awesome. Do it.


My player is a Hagan. It was made in the 80's and it's older than me. I'm a whippersnapper.

I had a '54 Panhead. The last year for the Springer front-end.
If there wasn't an oil spot on the ground under the Primary cover, you were out of oil. :smile:
