Out of all my cues this is my goto cue. I have yet to find one that plays or feels better in my hands.

Ron Kilby and I spent several months hashing out this design. It was a lot of fun. The template of the cue was the old Brunswick model 360 and it metastasized into the final product you see.
Dont let the carom joint fool you. This cue is designed specifically for 8 and 9 ball.

The the butt cap and diamonds and ferrules are ivory. The wood components are instrument grade Rosewood, Macassar, Thya burl, Amboyna burl, Paurosa and curly White Holly.
The larger Paurosa butterfly is actually supposed to be a spacer to give the cue a double stack of butterflies. 24 sets of points if you let me get away with it.
The color scheme of the points, butterflies and bands represents the colors of the USA and my family heritage.

Enjoy!

Well, just for giggles, how about this one (sold to a Texas investor).
