    New cue from Tom Gedris of Triple Cross Cues

    Thank you. Someone else enjoyed seeing the extra wood, as well. Ultimately, I am a guy that likes uncommon things. I think the look of this cue qualifies, barely, and it plays well too. I will definitely enjoy it. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

    New cue from Tom Gedris of Triple Cross Cues

    One odd thing about the cue is the length of the wrap. It's quite a bit shorter than what I thought of as standard...and on a cue a little longer than normal. You can see how it compares to my Steve Kornele cue. It doesn't seem to detract from playability, which I'm quite happy with. I just...

    New cue from Tom Gedris of Triple Cross Cues

    I've been interested in Tulipwood for some time now and finally decided to have one made. This is the result - completely hand made (no cnc used). It's not what I would call perfect, as a result, but I think it has turned out well and first impressions as a player are good. Going out for a...

    Sly candy

    The only thing wrong with that cue is that it ain't mine.

    Hulsey Box Cue

    I find most box cues very unappealing. This one, however, definitely stands apart from most. Very nice!

    A few new ebony Davis - Prince cues

    These are making me stare...and salivate a little. Nice work!

    Some of my learner cues

    I've seen work from experienced cuemakers that didn't look this good. Good job! ps - Thanks for the reminder that cues don't have to be loaded with bling to be beautiful and appealing.

    Do you shoot ambidextrously?

    When I first got my start in the strip club industry (DJ, not dancer. lol) I worked the early shift that didn't have much in the way of early business. I played pool with myself to pass the time and, to make it interesting, started playing left vs right. I just did it for fun, but it's been...

    Mezz EC-7 WMP

    I've heard so many good things about Mezz that I came close to buying EC7-B3 or EC7-W6. I opted to go the custom route instead. I really hope the new custom plays good so I won't keep 2nd guessing my decision.

    WOW!! No need to tell me to "check back often"! I can't wait to see the finished product.

    Willie Hoppe meets Predator...

    That is a good story...and a beautiful cue! I too have my first cue, given to me by my best friend (to this day) about 34 years ago. A simple 4-point Adam cue that was already well used when I got it. It's not near as sweet as yours, but I love it and still love shooting with it. Though it...

    What kind of chalk do you use?

    You'll never catch me riding the "OMG - which chalk is best!?" train. I'll always be found, safe & sound, on the Master's Express. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

    Things that bother me

    Have you ever been frustrated by a cuemaker, but loved the product?

    Last summer I sent an antique cue to a fellow in Tempe, AZ to have him replicate the original shaft of said cue. I love the way the original plays, but it's stating to warp. Months went by and no cue or shaft. Email queries were met with excuses about the weather and humidity...in the Phoenix...
