Lately, I've been using an older model Whitten, 2x4 for leagues. For travel, I often bring my 1x1 Guissepe. I hope that doesn't qualify me as a snob, though I'm sure someone will read it as such.

Yeh

You and JimBo

:p
 
I have a few, as you can see in my signature, but I love my Jim Murnak and use it exclusively.

All my cases are 2x4 except the Ron Thomas, which is 1x2.
 
Latch or Latch

Gerry,
In the photo of your tan case, it shows a latch similar to an It's George case. A Fellini is much different.
Regards,

For the money, for an everyday case, you really cannot go wrong with an Instroke/StrokeSports Premier vinyl case!

I have a 1x2 original Instroke Premier vinyl case that is made of the German Skai vinyl. I am guessing I have the case for at least 6 years now....still looks brand new!! Everything has held up very well.

The new Instroke Premiers are not using the German Skai vinyl. The vinyl they are using is a slightly lighter grade. The Skai is a heavy uhpolstery grade vinyl, and is bullet-proof! The StrokeSports Premier's are still made of the German Skai vinyl. StrokeSports is formerly Instroke Germany, and was the original manufacturer of the Instroke line.

www.hawleys.com has by far the best prices on these cases, and carries both brands. They do not list the StrokeSports Premiers on their website, but they do carry them, just give them a call...nice people to deal with. The StrokeSports Premiers run about 5.00 more than the Instroke Premiers.

Without a doubt.....the BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!!!

I was just going to freely admit my snobbery when I read this Fred:D . I use a McDermott Super Mac {NOT MENTIONED} 1X2 locally, a 1X2 Its George {NOT MENTIONED} for travel everywhere and anywhere because I am a pool snob, thanks for stoppin in!!

Voodoo~~~I love my Justis Pro-Lite but Jacks cases were mentioned, lol:p
 
I use a 1x2 Guissepe or 1x2 It's George for most days, especialy if I am on my bike. If I am going across town where I may be forced to play a game other than 1-hole, I use one of my Instroke 3x7's so that I can carry my break cue, jump handle etc. I love the instrokes, but they are just so heavy, and I usually only need one cue.

I am still vacillating about replacing my old pooped our Porper 2 x4 that has served me will 10 years almost, and was wondering if I should go with a 2 x 4, 3 x 5, or 3 x6, and what seem to be the most popular Case Brand.

My first case: Have a 2 X 4 black vinyl Porper that has served me very well. It's now used more for storage than anything. It's lite and tough and I think gives decent protection. My biggest complaint is that on any given nite there may be 5 cases in the room identical to it.

75% of the time I'll use my 2 X 2 Whitten. Very well made, classy black lizard print leather with the handle and shoulder strap. No pockets.:rolleyes:

For larger/longer multi-day tournaments 25% of the time I'll carry my 2 X 4 Whitten with one full length pocket zippered on 3 sides for all stuff I might possiblly need. Brown and tan lizard print. It's a bit flashy in some rooms but it's the MAX!

I can't visualize me needing anything bigger than a 2 X 4. Hauling around 3 to 5 cues seems like overkill to me and lugging it around would seem a chore. IMHO for a modest budget a standard Porper is all around tough to beat.
 
All 2X4's

For me it Depends on the Game.

My Sterling 2X4 is mostly my 9 Ball Rig, with my Trusty old Adams and a Sterling B/J and my Stealth Jump Cue.

My Giuseppe 2X4 is mostly for 1P, with my Custom Cocoblo, and a Cuetec 99296 B/J in case I wanna play some 9 Ball.

My Jay Flowers 2X4 is mostly for 8 Ball, with my nice heavy older Palmer Model "A" and a Wayne Gunn Sneaky Pete, and a cut down old Dufferin SP for a Jump cue.
