Any pool sharks here on CWT.com

Oh how time flys!

 

I ended up with a Connelly Santa Rosa. It was made some 20 years ago. Some reported that Connelly table’s quality varied a few years ago due to poor business/bankruptcy/etc. The 'older' tables were not an issue. I purchased it off an older retired gentleman whose custom home seemed to be built around his prized pool table. The pool room/bar was strategically placed so no sun light, he stated that sunlight was a wood and rail killer, would hit the table. It was in an awesome private bar that many of us would pay to drink in! I was happy to end up just under the 2K mark including new felt and transfer from Scottsdale to Tucson. Especially considering he showed me receipts totaling $5k+ from the early 90’s. That table alone is now north of $6k!

For the record my wife was indeed the one who pushed for it! We have had many family and friends over for spirited pool tournaments with plenty of drinks and honor pushing the wagers.

The table is now ready for a new felt. Three year old boys with milk do not go well with the cloth! I will have it taken down again for new flooring and use that opportunity to do so.

 

Attached is an image of my table minus the frilly pockets and carpet.
