My Cues

Here are some new photos I just took.

Car Cue:
This is a Halex 19oz Titanium Cue that I bought at Wal-Mart for 30 bucks.
I call it Car Cue cause it lives in the trunk of my car for shooting on my lunch hour or after work. I had a LePro tip put on it, and after 3 years of the Brutal Florida Heat, it is still straight as an arrow. It is a pretty good shootin Cue.

This is my Jay Flowers case with my 1969 Pamler Model "A" and my Wayne Gunn Sneaky Pete. The short handle is a sawed off Sneaky that I made my own Jump cue out of back in the early 80's.:)

Thank you.
Funny story about the Rempe, I bought it used in 1986 from the owner of a local Pool hall called Crazy Cue. I had taken a job right around the corner and would go shoot on my lunch hour with a House Cue.

One day when I came in he was putting a price tag on it and was going to put in up for sale, It caught my eye and he said here go shoot with it.
I fell in love with it and he sold it to me for $75 with a case and a locker to keep it in.:D

Dug this one out of the back of the closet.
My very first Cue.
1974 Championship Cue with flip top case. Still dead straight after all these years.
I still remeber opening it up on X-mas morning.:D
It was a screw on tip til 1986 when Wayne Gunn converted it.
I'm going to take it out and see how it feels to shoot with it after all these years.

Well I took the Championship cue with me yesterday. I had not shot with it
since 1992.

This cue shoots the lights out, played 8 Ball on my lunch hour. Ran out the first game. Got out with 2 bank shots in the second game. Made a razor cut with inside on the 8 in the third game.

I will be taking this one out of the closet more often.:D

It brought back some great memories. I have had it for 33 years.:)
