Who builds the Becue, full pool cues, and are they popular?

They occasionally come up for sale on azbilliards--and for much lower prices than new.


I bought one a few years ago in the For Sale forum. The shaft was warped, and the hit felt dead to me, so it just sits in a case. The Becue butts are super skinny as well, maybe the skinniest butts made.


You can get the leather wrap, but you can't get a radial joint on the butt. The only specs you can choose for the butt are the length and the overall cue weight.

An interesting tidbit about Becue...
Becue makes a mid cue extension as well as a rear extension. Presumably, the whole reason you would buy a Becue is to experience the hit of a 100% carbon cue. The rear extension is carbon, so when you attach the rear extension to the cue, you still have a 100% carbon cue, but the mid cue extension is made out of plastic. What the?? Doesn't that belie the whole sales pitch about how a full carbon cue hits better? Apparently, you can insert a 4" chunk of plastic in the middle of the cue and it won't affect the hit.

Longer cue for big tables?

G
I'm wondering if I'm alone in preferring a longer cue on nine foot tables. I used to play a lot of barbox pool and found a standard cue to be fine, but switching to mine foot tables, I had stroke problems with reachy shots. I started playing with a four inch extension all the time and I've found it very helpful. I find it helps me play more shots with my right arm working nearer to vertical. Anyone else use an extension full time? Are there any cue makers making longer than standard cues?

Why are you making this about your opinions? I merely posted an example of why I would not pull the trigger on a relatively unknown, expensive cue. It as nothing to do with YOUR purchasing habits. Some people care about resale, others do not......So what?

Predator, Schon, J Flowers, Cuetec, Meucci all make for easy and quick sales in the used market. Predators and Schons hold their value quite well.

You posted what if it is a "bad playing" cue, that is an opinion, you should spend your money on what you think is best for you, if I didn't love my Becue I would sell it at a loss and move on, I posted the pictures of my David Tice custom cue so you would know it's not about the money, that cue was far more expensive, there are many great playing cues out there, I owned a Predator cue, it played very well, no cue I have ever owned has played as consistently as my Becues, cue to cue and shaft to shaft, the sound of my Becue is a lot like the sound of my David Tice cue, if you don't like that sound you shouldn't buy one, it's just not the cue for you, good luck in finding one that is perfect for you 😉
