West Coast Cue Show

Bumping this up for the next West Coast Cue Show.

Oh, and if you're staying the weekend, the pool hall as a fantastic food menu! Really, it does. Great pancakes, salads, burgers, teriyaki chicken bowls, giant tacos, desserts, etc.... and a full bar!
 
Looking forward to it Rex. I'm bringing a display of the Palmer 3rd Catalog line of cues, Model's #1 - 20 as shown below, possibly displayed by 3 scantily clad bikini girls. Something for everyone, at least for male everyone's.

West Coast Cue Show

Just added...

Cue maker Kent 'King of Burl' Davis will be joining us for the show!
And Kent loves to play pool so we may get some great cue maker vs. cue maker action going! Should be a lot of fun.

Chris: Can't wait to meet you and check out some of your awesome collection!

Cocobolo... be very nice to meet you too!
 
Rex...Kent is an amazing cuemaker! I've never even heard of anyone who uses his technique! He also has an unbelievable stock of exotic woods. He's making me a cue...first cue I've had made for me in more than 10 years! What a great show you guys put on! The pics from last year were amazing! Wish I could attend!

My vote is for a 9 or 10 ball tournament - it would get a lot of action this time of year because of the show and lack of tournament action in CA this time of year.

No doubt that Kent is one of the best around. He is meticulous with all of his work. He and I are getting together to discuss the details for a cue that he will be making for me.
It Will be the first cue made for me since Schrager made one for me about 35 years ago.

Tate, that is an amazing collection you have there. I Can't get up to Mountain View but I would like to see your collection some day. I played with a Palmer in the late sixties, I loved it.
P.S. I would also like to see the bikini's too.
