Which Famous and/or Current Professional Players Cue Would You Want to Own?


Who has/had it:
Who made it:
Details/History of that cue if you know'em:
And a photo of said cue:


I'm a fan of the southpaws. I would want to own or at least shoot a rack with Steve Mizerak's cue from the Mizerak vs. Davis snooker challenge where he shot snooker with his pool cue. I'm pretty certain it was a Richard Black. The Miz had moxie.

Meucci's are pretty common.

I had a couple when I first started taking the game seriously.

But, I always liked this Buddy Hall model before it became the 84-7, 95-12, and ultimately the HOF-2.

I've got CJ Wiley's old Bludworth from back in the day!

It's one of the Buddy Hall Series!

 

[ENGLISH!]

I'd love to have an original Balabushka once used by Mr. Mosconi.

Also maybe Jackie Gleason's cue.

Efren's.... Because It's his, and I hear the shaft is a magical bamboo. His shafts are made by a 10,000 year old Filipino tortuous specially for him.

If you're talking about the cue Efren was using when he first came to
North America.....I've got one made by the same cue maker.
It's plain looking but hits really well...it's a sleeper.
It was said back then that he was playing with a $4 cue, but it hit a lot
better than many of the cues that were shooting against him.

I can't remember the cue maker's name.

I've always been captivated by the Twilight Zone "A game of pool" cue Fats Brown used once he materialized in the pool hall.
The light wrap, ivory joints, maple shaft and butt with the dark wood butt sleeve.
The thing that cracks me up is how long it takes him to screw it together.

Ebony butt with BEM forearm...?

I don't know how many versions Blud made, but outside of the one I have I've seen four, and I can't make out the writing on the weight bolt.

Please, put up a pic of yours.

Anyone ever see a pic of Jackie's collection?

Top Left is the Judd Fuller cue he was playing with I believe. Top Right is the cue he's been playing most recently...?

 

[pwd72s]

These days, the pros pretty much use whatever they are paid to use.

Gee, why doesn't anybody here lust for SVB's Cuetec?

Some good choices listed above, but despite being far from a pro, I'll keep playing with my cue made by Keith Josey.

I wonder how well Gleason would match up against this guy?

What year did Kim's eye accident occur?

I believe Efren's Judd Fuller is a cocobolo/BEM, right?

I believe Efren's Judd Fuller is a cocobolo/BEM, right?

I believe the photo of the plain jane BEM forearm & butt, coco handle is a Judd. If I'm wrong, I'll gladly make a correction.

I didn't think badly about Cuetec's after I won a tourney or two with one. I realize now it was the power of the Earl Strickland signature.

I understand that some cue sponsored players shot with whatever was thrown at them, but some had played with interesting marques before and long after their hey days.

I think a accurate photographic timeline of cues owned by great players would be a great thread idea.

2002. Fatboy has the Kim's Szamboti I believe.
