Remind me to never let you touch my cue.

My game has gotten way more consistant since you sold me on switching to screw on tips.

But more importantly, bitches love screw on tips.

Your entire post reads like you're a closet homosexual daring me to molest you.

I have an older McDermot and it feels very nice to shoot with. A lot more feedback than my dad's Meucci.

My next cue will be a newer McD or a Joss N-7 (just because I love The Color of Money).

Listen to the first part of this guy's post, but ignore the last bit.

LOL, looking for a game?

i'm seriously out of practice! at this point, i may need to take a few lessons before i play either of you!

I assume you know the cue in the movie was made by Joss... Balabushkas are too rare and thought of too delicate to use in the movie. I did the google research last month looking for one. Real Balas are 5-20 grand. The actual Joss used in the movie is a N7 and only 700 bucks new. Lol

Real Balas are 5-20 grand.

That's just Ludacris!!

I'd buy one only if it turned me into Vincent. Lmao

yeah, i'm aware of it...i was just joking, because, after that film, everyone wanted a balabushka. if i recall, his kids or grandkids either sold the rights to his name or had some company manufacturer replicas, with his name....i don't know if they're still making them or not. the ones that were made by george balabushka are definitely rare and expensive...he didn't make very many. i have a friend with one (made in the mid 60s, if i remember correctly), and he paid over $20k, back in the mid/late 90s.

Of course, I was referring to the ones made before he died, not the ones made by his family. I wonder if the ones made today are any better than the Joss cues?

Balabushka replicas continue to be in high demand by players and collectors alike. While these cues are replicas, they continue to carry the high quality standards of the original Balabushka pool cues.
