Question for B. Jewett on VEPP

[Bob Jewett]

... When I first put the line on the ferrule, the first thought that entered my mind is that there will always be one person somewhere that will ask about it and then laugh you off the table. To be honest, there were more than second thoughts running through my mind but....... ...

And then there was the well-known pro who saw my mark and went up to the tournament director to ask whether the mark was legal or if my stick was banned.

When you first posted this information, I wondered if you experienced someone questioning that.

May I ask as to what the outcome was on the issue?

The TD said that it was OK.

Good deal. I hope waxed his a$$.

BTW, do you still use this method?

I still play with the mark up when available. Sometimes if I'm lazy about chalking (or in a hurry) and repeating the same shot, I'll simply rotate the cue to where the chalk has not been used yet. The mark lets me know where that is.
