I picked up 4 more Titlist cues an haven't been able to find any info online. Two look like Wenge and another is very dark with redish brown grain. The two that look like Wenge have my curiosity. Has anybody seen Wenge Titlists before?

Wow what a great deal and a free Cat to boot!!!:D

I think Wenge was used in some of those cues, but sometimes it is hard to tell the difference between it and mahogany. In addition sometime the color will change greatly as the old lacquer is removed, because to my experience it will darken the woods color greatly over time.

Contact Tate on the forum, he has most of the old Brunswick catalogs form that time frame.

Hope this helps!!

Years ago Jerry Franklin had told me that wood was called eppy or something like that.

I did some searching on Ipy wood and it looks completely different. Wenge and Pheasant wood are the closest matches I can find.
 
I've Had Several Wenge Titlists Throught The Years, And That Is What Yours Appears To Be.

Are The Rosewood Ones For Sale? I Need One More.

I've exposed the wood and they are Wenge. The dark rosewood is being converted by myself. This cue below is up for sale. Best offer. As of now nobody can tell me anything about the "Titlist Snooker" sticker. I've talked to many experts and nobody has ever seen one before. The blue book doesn't even have pictures of these cues.
All three Snooker Titlists are 61.5" long.

I'VE SEEN THE TITLIST SNOOKER CUES BEFORE, ACTUALLY BOUGHT A PACKAGE WITH 5 OR 6 OF THEM IN IT.

THEY ARE LONGER, THINNER AND LIGHTER THAN THE REGULAR TITLIST CUES.

I DON'T MAKE OFFERS ON CUES, BUT HAVE INTREST IN THE TITLIST. IF YOU COME UP WITH A PRICE, PM ME, WE'LL GO FROM THERE.
