Falcon makes a good quality (very nice hitting, in my opinion) cue, and they are made in Canada (so they are not cheaply made Asian imports)
Here is a link to a nice older used Falcon that is ending on ebay in about 22 hours (that you can probably win for under $100).

If you can afford to spend a little more, than you can probably pick up this Joss (that is ending in about 6 hours) for around $150.

They are both great cues, for the money (much better quality than a McDermott lucky cue, or other cheaply made Asian import).
You can always find a good deal on a used cue on ebay.
Just keep checking back on there often.
Good luck finding a cue that you like.

Also there are good deals on new merry widow McDermotts on ebay.
Also check out Schmelke at their site, Shooters Billiards, or Billiard warehouse.

Save up a little and buy a used predator cue with a 314-2 shaft. Starting out this is your best move. A number of people here might disagree but I think starting with an LD shaft will help your game.
Great Cue...Great Price
Take a good look------------------->
You even get a break shaft.

It is just my opinion, but I really hate the very stiff hit of Predator shafts. The OB (OB1, OB2) shafts hit much better, IMO. I think that the OB2 shafts have a 11.75mm tip on them (1mm smaller than the OB1). You can probably find a cheap butt to go with a used OB1 shaft for the price range that you are wanting to spend ($125). I am sure that you would love the hit of OB shafts, but I know that many players love Predator shafts (including the super stiff Predator Z shafts). I really love Universal Smart Shafts too (invented by Bill Stroud).
Buy a Dale Perry cue from him off ebay. He used to make a great cue, so he knows how. The ones on ebay are ok cues for $125-200. Dont buy the hype BS on his listing indicating that the cue retails for $1795 or some crap like that, but i bet you can pick one up for $125.

It's a player! There is nothing wrong with picking up a McD, Player or one of Dale's cues on EBAY but, this Frey will hold it's value now and after you graduate :wink:
