Efren Reyes was using a Coker cue, ebony forearm and butt sleeve, metal joint and tan leather wrap, wasn't he?

Efren seems to show no allegiance to any cue since his first cue was stolen about a decade ago. It seems if you have the cash, you can buy your dream cue from him right now.

I remember Mark Wilson telling a story of how Efren took his Wife's (Debbie's) shaft & screwed it onto someone else's butt and played a match with it. He's not scared to grab any cue and play a championship match with it...must be nice.

EDIT: Wait, are you saying Efren is scouring eBay looking for new cues?!?! LOL
 
He won that bid that's how he got that cue. The end bid was no more than $450, now if I want it from him, he might say "play me for it" which means I will never get it from him.

There was a story going around in the mid 90's that he was at a tournament and cracked his cue or something. So he went across the street to Kmart and bought a very cheap $20 cue and ended up winning the event. I don't know how true that story is but it would be funny if it is.

Quite a few pros aren't too particular about cues. I once heard someone ask Johnny Ervolino what cue he shoots with and he said "I don't know" and he held up the cue and the guy said "oh it's a Schuler". Johnny said "whatever, someone gave it to me".
 
Look at Efren's left hand! Wow!:eek: he must have been playing for two days straight. Lol!
 
Efren's hand is dirty because of Filipino superstition. Apparently he will not wash the luck off his hands once the tournament starts.

I heard the same thing...need someone to confirm cause that's a great story to keep alive!
 
Not a Coker.........

this was the topic of another thread where someone thought it was a JT-1 but it wasnt that either. There are close up shots and videos when Bata was using this same cue at a tournament in the Philippines, its neither Judd nor Coker. Dont know what it is. There is a signature in the forearm though but cant make it out on any of the footage that I've seen
