Most Won't Want To Hear

I have a Dufferin I paid $10 dollar for years ago. I haven't played with it in a couple years. It is one one few cues I've owned which rolls absolutely 100% straight.

I might break it out and hit some balls with it tomorrow.
 
I bought a $63.00 two-piece Dufferin. Works just as good as my Cuetec R-360, my $350 Viking, all 4 of the DP's I bought and gave for presents, and a under $100 Mc Derm, and I'm sure the Duff plays as good as most any cue...no matter what the price. Johnnyt

Every piece of wood is different.
 
ive played with quite a few wooden house cues, some hit good some dont. ive played with some dufferins that are stiff as a nail and others that got some decent flex to them. some have that dead feel to them whereas others have some play to them. there is this one at this local bar i play at that hits really nice. i dunno, it doesnt feel like it deflects nearly as much as my custom cue. although, there are certain things easier i can do with my custom that i cant do with the house cue.
 
In fond memory of Gus Szamboti.....
I've read on these forums where they say Efren can beat anybody with anything...
....I got a news flash for y'all....
...Efren is VERY particular about what he plays with....as is Alex.

My guess would be that they are just looking for a particular feel in a cue rather than worrying about who made it or the cues value.
Or they are careful to only use cues that are made by the companies that pay them.
 
Look good!

What ever it is you like to do you should feel like you look good doing it. Life is to short to shoot with ugly cues or ugly guns. But, it is up to the user to decide what is looking good enough.

Heck, I have even seen some gals that look good in a dress or a pair of old cut off jeans.
 
Hey Scott, I think I have quit/retired about 2-3 times now from pool. For some silly reason this game ropes me back in! I'm only 35 too lol.

I hope you never quit AZ.....I come to AZ to see your avatars.....
....they are tasteful pics of beautiful women.

The ones who use skanks get old....real quick.
 
Didn't know it was possible to downgrade from a cuetec..

You can't up-grade to one, either.

Johnny, the last I heard you were at death's door. You had said goodbye to your wife and dog, and had donated half of one kidney and a glass eye to the local National Donate Life program.
So what's up? You felling a little better now? :smile:

As for you, my friend, I always thought a little splash of skank helped all women. :smile:

Being around skanky women too much is like having too much honey....
....it's abusing something that is great.
I will never get tired of graceful women.

Shoulder, back a lot better. COPD still a problem playing any longer than 30 min at a time. I've started playing again and when the weather cools a bit here in FL., I'm going to take some short road trips. I still think I can hold my own with "A" players on the BB. Anyhow, I'm going to find out. Johnnyt
 
Yep, and I can bang nails in all day long with a brick, but I'd much rather have a nice hammer ��

That is a terrible anology since a brick is not a tool for driving nails.

How about this anology? I can haul just a heavy load with a ford f 150 xl as I can with a xlt lariat for half the price .

The XLT and Lariat are two different trim levels, no such thing as being both. XLT is cloth seats with a few chrome bits and standard niceties inside standard. Lariat is leather seats and more niceties. Actually, I think you want the Platinum or King Ranch for your analogy and get you closer on the twice the price part.
