Hi, yes…..I'm new here to AZBilliards.com. I've been playing pool off and on for most of my life. I'm in my early 50's now but when I was younger, in the late 80's and early 90's I played A LOT of pool. I've never owned my own (nice or should I say expensive) cue. Back then, the people I hung around that had their own cues and they always had or wanted a McDermott cue.
I finally got my own table in my house! When I got the table, I put a McDermott G303 on layaway. I paid $25.00 a week for almost 3 months and FINALLY got my own (in my opinion) nice cue! I've been on here for a while and I see a lot of "hate" towards McDermott cues?!?! I don't get it!
I own my home, I work hard, I have a wife and kids, dogs, cats, etc… I'm very happy with my cue, I looked at a lot of different ones and finally decided on the G303. It seemed like a nice cue and wasn't too expensive. Since I've been on here, it seems as though most people want "custom" cues or anything other than a "production" cue?
Honestly, I guess it's just that I'm a greenhorn or a noobie, but it's weird to hear people talk smack about McDermott cues! Lifetime warranty, good product, made in the USA blah blah blah….
I love my cue, in fact, I'm thinking about getting the G603 for my birthday in July. I love the leather McDermott embossed grip. Oh, one more thing, I've never even heard of a Diamond Table until I came onto this site.
I love to read the threads on here, i've learned a lot. I don't post much…yet…My playing has improved considerably since I got my own table. I love playing pool, I really, really enjoy it.
Are McDermott cues inferior or is it that a lot of people prefer "custom" cues as opposed to "production" cues?
Thanks! I anticipate your responses….
If anyone is in Las Vegas or is coming to Las Vegas, I have a nice Mancave and I'd love to play some people from this site. I'm not that good, but I love the game…maybe I'll learn to shoot better?!?! I'm 20 minutes from the Strip.
CHEERS!
