I don't think he used any silicone on those balls either.
Did you notice?
Great flick! Thanks, Did you notice that the ferule on Hoppe's was about 3/4" in length. So can anyone explain why the ferules on today's cues are much shorter. Is his cues shaft tappered on conical? In the past I have seen Willie Hoppe signature Brunswick cues that have only tappered shafts, surely Willie didn't play with a tappered shaft , or did he?

He was an internationally renowned carom billiard champion and this vintage video is all about this great player and the magic in his hand. Wonderful!
