Hmm, I've never heard the guy before. I found his website while I was browsing http://www.cueaddicts.com/hill.htm and http://thecuedealer.com/cues/cues_hill.htm
I called Mr. Darrin Hill that evening, he is extremely nice and very knowledgeable. He sent me pics of some of his cues. Although I've never seen his cues or play with it, I said to myself, well the guy knows what's he's doing and he said if I don't like the cue, I just ship it back to him and he'll refund my money. I was thinking, what the hell, let's give it a try. I paid him online and he shipped the cue to me the next day.
I choose the 12 points cue, 6 hi's and 6 low's African walnuts/Zheta wood? with 6 hi's and 6 low's ebony points. If has ebony forearm and buttsleeve and Zheta handle. It's the left on the pics.
I received the cue, got off work, and went to local pool hall. I assembly the cue, chalk it up, set up a simple shot and DAMN, this cue hits AWESOME!!! I didn't mean to keep the cue until I shot just 1 ball with it. I was saying to myself, What in the world, this cue hits TRUE, I shot several more balls with it, and I only can say, well I gotta have this cue!!! This is Awesome. I've owned several "nice" cues such as Josey, Blue Grass, Gulyassy and even shot with SouthWest, Schon and Scruggs, but this is Hills cue is something else. This cue feels GREAT, for me at least.
I called Mr. Hill and told him (in serious tone) that I didn't like the cue, he nicely said to me, well sent it back here and I'll refund your money. I told him
I was just kidding!!! His cue hits above and beyond my expectation. I let a friend of mine that kinda picky/doesn't appreciate other people's cue hit balls with it. The first ball that he hitted, he gave me that WTF look, (kinda funny) and then shot another ball and he said Damn, I like this cue, LOL.
Piggy bank Glen Rogers and Ike Runnels play with his cue. Good luck to you Mr. Hill, his cue is selling like hot cakes in Chicago area.
Sincerely,
