Very happy with Bruiser
This is stick 22, Bruiser, which is destined for auction. Soon as I figure out how to set myself up on eBay and soon as I get a couple cleanup items done on the stick. I haven’t shaved its butt yet. Last part of the finishing process is to go to the end and clean […]
Bruiser: getting finished & auctioned
I’m going to finish Bruiser next, and then auction it with no reserve. Someone could get a heck of a deal… Bruiser is spalted/stabilized beech and comes with a purple heart break shaft and a soft touch cherry shaft for high finesse shots. A stick guaranteed to elevate your game if only by making you […]
A very productive week
The green stick is called Beauty in the Eye. It’s ready to put into a case and FedEx to you. The maple/black cherry stick is spoken for and will soon be on its way to Doug.
Seraphim Ready
Lots has been going on. I have two sticks with essentially the same name, and news on both. First, Miss Sarah Phim has sold. This is the orange and blue stick featuring the dancing lady… As a result of the transaction, I set up every stick on the site so you can add a primo […]
A subscriber will win the pool cue in this log
When I reach 1,000 YouTube subscribers, I’m going to hold a raffle for subscribers only, and one will win this stick.
Rebuilding Sassy Videos Complete
I made a 53 minute highly detailed video and a 12 minute quicker look. Here’s the longer version.
SO MUCH Going On: New Sticks, Old Sticks, a Character Cues Tournament, Leather Grips, Leather and Bark Rings, 6 Sassafras and Ironwood Live Edge Sticks in the Works, Omigosh!
How’s that for a thorough title? It could be the whole post. Except I’ll add a few details… The tournament will be at the Bear Claw, on 322 outside of Reynoldsville, PA. Their back room (which seems to be about a half acre) will have a plank floor completed in a couple weeks. I spoke […]
2 Full Length, Spalted, Cored, Birch Butts in Stabilizer
I ordinarily use Cactus Juice stabilizer, but I had some Polycryl that I’d intended to test, and never had. It occurred to me while editing my upcoming Sassafras rebuild video that with my current setup, I’m able to core full length sticks. The daring part was coring them while they’re rotten and liable to fly […]
Rotten Maple on a Journey… (plus a wicked cool slideshow)
I also cut a some very crazily-figured black cherry, some ordinary old walnut, and paper birch, which will all complement the new sticks in various ways. Some of the sticks will be one-piece, so the only complement will be like: “Holy shit! You’re beautiful!”
