What are you talking about. A Kimber 1911 is a excellent pistol. You disagree?
This cue was so unusual that I donated it to Denny Glenn
so that it could be tested or played at the cue hall of fame
Denny tried it,Steve tried it,Jack,myself,Vanover and Jerry Franklin
all experienced its unusual playing characteristics
When i ordered 2 more from Josey he was unaware of anything unusual,just another sneaky pete
I know you guys are funning with me,but I am serious and beginning to get edgy ( we both know that means it is time to turn up the heat)
I am going to receive the cue back this week.maybe Larry or Jake can discover the reason,if it still
works. I wish John Nemic would look at it,he is an engineer and a genius on cues
If it does still work II think you guys deserve video proof,if it doesn't work any more,then perhaps I was wrong
or made the whole thing up so I could look like a raving idiot
However as someone has suggested,this could lead to an opportunity for 10 of you brave souls to send me some money
Honestly Jack Potter was making Libra cues back then and he wanted to clone this thing. I know you guys think Jack is just playing along with me for old times sake,but this is on the square and it was
not an inch or two different.It hit draw masse' shots on medium speed with my stroke
I might make you guys pay for the video if you keep ragging me

It might be impossible to duplicate, Dean.....wood is a living thing.
A wood’s characteristic might come from where it grew in the forest....
...or how cold the winter was....or how much wind was making it sway.
I had some great playing cues but I was always looking for one that would hit better.
...probably why carbon fiber doesn’t make me excited....it’s probably consistent....
...like modern composite balls...but some ivory balls you could do magic.
Remember the old umbrella shot that was easy with Ivory balls
This Draw cue produced stuff like that
there is a crack in the butt now,but dennissays the cue
is still magic
I hope so,I will get the last word on all you guys
I am happy to say ,my yankees are in the playoffs
if we get to the series I am going to buy a TV,
if not I am probably better off without

Put the shaft on some different butts and see if you get the same action, if you do you have isolated it to something with the shaft!
that is the first thing we plan to do
send your address for a signed Tom and Jerry colored pool picture
consider it a gift
unless you really don't want it
it is nice in my opinion but i am trying to get out
have two nice pool pictures ,framed for $125 each
one a disney buggs bunny shooting pool
the other is a poster art clown

I had a Meucci 333 back in the day that moved the cueball better than anything I've played with since.
And yes, some of us are funning you.:thumbup:
.
And we have a winner.
:clapping:
I once posted this once a long time ago and people just didn't believe it.
.
Although I don't have any pool related art, and I would love it, let me post some art I do have that you make like in trade(for either yourself or someone you know), I'd rather trade something than you just give it to me. I'll drop you a message this week if time permits. Hope you are well and looking forward to seeing the results from Larry.
Is that how The Rotation Master does that Monstor Draw in the beginning of his videos???
Kimber
No idea of current Kimbers. They went big and went to crap many years ago. I looked at a few at dealers and was very very unimpressed. Anybody that has shot a Hubilt 1911 would throw rocks at a Kimber!
I handled a couple of bullseye 1911's that a young man's father had shot with. The smith's name didn't ring a bell and I have forgotten it. They were different designs but both reminded me of precision machine equipment. By far the nicest 1911's I have ever handled and that included mine and most "name" smiths from 10-20 years ago. I was extremely disappointed handling some big name guns. Wilson built a 1911 that they knew was to be a carry gun for a cop. That piece of crap wouldn't even feed hardball.
Back to magic cues!

Yeah so a quick look at the 1911 forums shows me how wrong you and RimJob are. I thought so, but I had to check.
I tend to lean your way here Lou. I have held cues, knowing their specs, that "felt" completely different than they should have, IMO. Some amazed me with the way the played, and others...not so much. Hard to always pinpoint why, sometimes they just do.
Was the cue shipped? Just wondering if it will be a day before you receive it or more like a year in cuemaker time.
What’s unfair about that?.....a snooker table is 12 feet long....and heavier cloth.
...therefore a snooker cue should hit a long ton....which is 2200 lbs and change
