That is some sick burl Darrin ;)
I have been at Darrin's shop and he's got some awesome wood stock.
 
Nice looking cue. I'm sure finish will make it POP!!!

Is that a Zebrawood front, in the background? What will that cue look like, when it's put together?
 
Looks like that will be a beauty, Darrin. Finish will really bring it up!
 
Looks like my future cue is coming along nicely. The pics don't do justice to that piece of burl you found. When this cue is finished it will be one of your nicest cues you have done.
(Darrin your the best)
Thanks,
Pete

Hi,

What I like about Darrin is that he is constantly changing the style and designs of his cues. Never gets boring and each cue is one off.

Very nice cue. the colors of the wood & veneers go really well together. Like how the burly is used in the inlays and as the alternating shorter points as well as in the handle.
 
Wow, thanks for all the the great replies. I'm working on a big batch of cues that will be finished this fall , I will post pics when done. thanks Mr Hill

I got to see this cue up close & personal today, all I can say is AMAZING !!!

I can see why Darrin is regarded as one of the top cue builders today.
