A fine gentleman named Bill Trimble won the cue and because he saw the lust in my eyes for it he was kind enough to work out a trade deal with me. Everyday at Derby I looked at the thing and lamented the fact that the one person who had no chance to own it was me. It is also signed and dated one of one by Steve. It has a custom logo we designed together by combining his logo with ours. Steve made this as a special 1 of 1 for us to raffle off at the Derby last year. I also have one of Steve's famous jump cues but mine comes with extra bad assedness added. The cue plays great and is one that I will not be letting go of. The shaft has an ivory ferrule with a Kamui Black Super Soft tip and a taper that would make Earl proud. For me the simple ebony cue balances it out nicely. If you put them on a really fancy cue it can take it from cool to something that looks like you swiped it out of Kanye West's game room. IMO you have to be careful with wraps as blingy as a Ring Tail. It is a Nigerian ebony cue with double silver rings and a pimptastic genuine Ring Tail Lizard wrap. One of my favorites is made by Steve Lomax. I have a few cues that I rotate through depending on my moods. There must be an innate need in peoples minds to convert Justin to Jason for some reason so I decided to just give them a good excuse. It is also a play on the fact that for most of my life half the people who see me everyday call me Jason anyway. The JCIN was something I came up by combining my initials with my location at the time I created it which was Indiana. He lasered the TAR logo and "" on for me as well as making a nameplate with my internet handle on the lid. Besides when you play as bad as I do you dont really need a bunch of extra crap. I invariably lose any pool gadget in my possession anyway so there is no reason to carry a bunch of crap I will just end up leaving on a table at the Riv, Derby City or some pool room somewhere in the country never to be seen again.

This means pockets get crushed because there is often a lot of crap on top of the case. When I travel I put my case in the bottom of a duffel bag to check it. There was a practical consideration as well. I had never seen one of his 2x4's without pockets and thought it would have a nice clean look to it. I called Jack and asked him if he would make me a case with no pockets. It is a custom 2x4 made by IMO the best case maker in the world Mr. This is shown in the case that I have been using for the last couple of years. In my old age I have taken on a bit of a minimalist outlook on things. After years of switching constantly I have finally settled down a bit and have used mostly the same set up for about the last year or so.

I have ran the gamut from hauling around a 3圆 Justis full of crap that weighed as much as a Hyundai to a 1x2 Ron Thomas with one cue for everything. This means I have owned, tried, bought, sold and traded ridiculous amounts of cues and cases. I like nice gear and I like trying all different kinds of things to see if there something out there I like better. Doesn't matter if it's IPSC shooting, photography, video or pool. I should start out by admitting that I am a gear queer. On to this months topic."Whats in your case and why?" Ok.not really but Samm is really sweet and when she asked me to write something for this months PoolSynergy how could I refuse? I just had to remember my damn log in for this thing. Don't be fooled by the sweet smiling face. Who wields such power ? Who intimidates men with but a few polite words ? Behold. I will be honest and admit the only reason this one is getting typed out at the very last second possible before the deadline is because one of the heavy hitters in the industry made it known in no uncertain terms that it would be in my best interest to just shut up and do this shit. At this pace I may get six or so done this year. Well its obvious I suck at this blogging thing.
