Steve Miserak/ Adam’s Pool Cue

[JasonATX]

What are you trying to do?

You just want a butt sleeve?

Curious...

Full cue, but I'd work with what I can get. If it was one of the Rich butt sleeves, I have a lot of stabilized amboyna to make something fun out of that.

I want a sleeper for the most part, but if I can't get a good example of that, I don't mind rolling high and making a monster.

Hi, have you ever seen a Helmstetter that was made by Helmstetter, in the US? I have not.

I had one actually. I wish like hell I had kept it. It was not marked, but it was one I purchased from the original owner. He was a pretty cool old man I met at a place called 'The Billiard Institute" in Denver when I was hanging out there 40 years ago. He purchased it hand to hand from Dick. WOW! I knew it was special, but as poverty dictates actions, I had to sell it to pay bills. It was a very nicely done Titlist conversion. It had an unusually long joint pin.
I was not a cue guy yet, but I certainly appreciated it for being special and a bit of billiard history.
Manwon was looking for a cue I.D. years ago here, he had an almost identical cue. It immediately was obvious to me what it was. I recall being offered a chance to buy that one but money was Soooo tight then that I had to pass on it. I should have just bought it anyway!
I have another unbelievable cue with a similar history. The original owner called it his Meucci. It's not, but it is.
I'll have to post that one up someday.....

Thank you guys for the information. I was just curious because it came from my grandma-in-law which I assume came from her husband. It also came with this insert that written by someone. I love pool but I’m not as knowledge as you guys are. (Just hitting my 30s and have been playing for 4 years now.) I just forgot all about this cue as it was in a case and put into the back of our closet before I started truly getting into it. The cue is straight and the lizard material as well as the cue looks brand new in an older case. Sorry about the misinterpretation on the Adam cue.

It's all good dude.
