ok, here is some interesting stuff. sitting around the bar one night in reno, earl was talking to a bunch of us players,about 5 of us,and he said "i've learned a lot of things in the many years i've been playing pool, but i'm gonna give you all some advice right now, that will help your game out tremendously,you should all listen carfully" he went on to say~~~"take off your ferrul and tip, get an old mucci ferrul that's real soft, then put on top of it,a black fibre backing not a red one but a black one, then make an X with a razor blade into the ferrul,then after putting an elk master into a vise glue it on top of that ferrul and backing, he said, "it will give you the sweetest hit in the world"
now mike sigel sitting at the bar one night was telling larry schwartz and i, you know the shots that people play today that are supposed to be fantastic? well, i invented them. for instance the kick and stick shot, when your kicking behind the ball from the lengeth of the table,and the object ball goes up table and the cue ball stops in it's tracks, well, i invented that"
well, that's what these two said in the wee hours of the morning.
