The Bobbie
Billiard Story
I always knew that I wanted to model: even at the age of 4 I was striking
a pose. I was born on December 12th in Austin, Texas. I moved from there
to Richardson, Texas and then on to Mission Viejo, California. As a child,
I was made fun of. They called me "monkey lips" and I really never fit in.
My mother told me not to worry and that my full lips would be on the cover
of Vogue someday. Well, maybe not Vogue, but they did make the cover of
Minitruckin' Magazine.

Billiards
Cues Power
Over the years there has been much conjecture over the importance of
billiards cues power for breaking balls or applying english, etc.. Some
players have thought that a heavy billiards cues would make them break
better. Thank goodness, most players have finally been educated to the
reality that a lighter billiards cues is more powerful. A fact that has
been repeatedly proven by the Meucci Staff and other players in breaking
contests over the years - ever since I first introduced the use of a radar
gun at tournaments in the early 90's. The simple fact is that a human,
male or female, has limited strength and can only move a certain amount of
weight so fast; the heavier the weight, the slower the swing. Conversely,
the lighter the weight, the faster the swing.
