After always playing with a linen wrapped cue I did not think I would get used to a wrapless. However I have found at this point I can't see myself playing with a linen or leather wrapped cue as a daily player ever again. I love the feel and feedback of my wrapless Runde. I'm curious to know who may feel the same as I do and what they play with?

What is it with these wrapless rundes. You are the 4th person in like a week that has pointed out how much they are digging their wrapless Runde.
 
I might buy a wrapped cue that I like to collect and display but all my playing cues have to be wrap less. I just prefer the feeling of my hands on naked skin ....err I mean wood
 
I feel like I get a better feedback from my wrapless players. I only play with a wrapless cue and I have two from Larry Vigus that are phenomenal. I love the look of wood instead of a wrap.

Ditto.

One of my Larry Vigus cues is also my main player. Growing up and playing for many years with nothing but house cues, I developed a preference for wrapless cues. And, like Allen stated above, you just cannot beat the looks of a beautifully figured wood grip as opposed to looking at the same old boring speckled thread (this is the statement that will get all the pictures of exotic wraps to showing up on this thread :smile:).

My second choice, when not using a wrapless cue, is a stacked leather wrap.

Maniac
 
I have 3 wrapless, two Schons one's a CX83, one Lucasi LHF69.
Bet most of the guys on here started playing with a wrapless before they bought a cue.
 
prewarhero, if you get a opportunity to try a wrapless Runde I think you will be impressed. If you do I would love to hear your opinion.
 
I've only been playing for 3 years. I bought my first cue about 2-1/2 years ago. I bought one with a wrap because I figured "with" must be better than "without." I mean anything "-less" means it's not as good, right?

About a year later I was unexpectedly in the pool room so I grabbed a house cue. That's when I realized that I prefer wrapless. Up until then I couldn't figure out why my cue was slipping out of my hand.

My player is an OB121. Sneaky Pete cocobolo and maple. Perfecct cue for me.
 
Can't play as much as I would like...knees are really giving me fits...but when I can, it's still this one:



Or this one for a change of pace:



Both are fine examples of the 'other' Brazilian woods still available...but maybe not for much longer.

I don't even know what my cue is and from. I've been playing with it for about 10 years already.

Who made the bottom cue with the blue points ?
 
I love wrapless cues but I like playing with Schons and one day I found a wrapless one and picked it up right away. I've had it forever and love it!


That's a great looking cue . Could I get a better picture of the points?
