Just received my case from JB cases. I purchased the right to have this case made at the memorial for Royce Bunnell, founder of OB Cues, who passed away late last year. He was a friend and mentor to me.

John was at the memorial and put up his personal case for auction. During the live auction he expressed an attachment to the case but felt it the right thing to do because he knew Royce well. I won the live auction but told John that if he'd like to keep the case and build me another one, I'd be just as happy with that.

John decided to build me a case but put his personal case back up for auction, effectively doubling the money going to Royce's family... a great gesture!

After extensive design discussions with John and his team, we finalized a design and it was built. I received the case yesterday and this is what arrived. :thumbup:

Good men will never be forgotten as they are remembered through good deeds which they inspire.

That's my wife's....:eek:


Ha, just kidding. It's a dent remover or the shaft. It doesn't work that well but I carry it nonetheless.

Haha...that's hysterical
I had one of them, I think I put more dings and dug holes in my shafts with that darn thing.
I rubbed it back and forth so
many times I was expecting a genie to appear.
I made a fishing lure out of it.

A fantastic case and a wonderful gesture,
