Production Cue you Swear By.....

Josey is a two year wait, at least mine was. I’d buy a used Schön or a. 90’s or older joss.
 
Even the cheapest of cue butts will play every bit as good as _____________ (fill in ANYBODY'S brand production or custom).

Find a cheap butt with your desired pin and then spend the bulk of your budget on a high quality shaft.

Oh I definitely talk to Josey, we're Facebook buds and he's done a bunch of tips and re-wraps for me.

A Josey is definitely in the cards. When I do get one, I want a little higher end.

Keep in mind Keith is quite capable of making a cue with old style sharp points and veneers. Mine was made in 2007. For production cues, my wife loves her merry widow style Jacoby. She says no if I suggest a new cue for her...

Yeah, that's why I suggested a Jacoby. It's a production cue like the title of the thread recommended we opine. :thumbup:

I have to give a shout out to Lucasi.
I've had the same Lucasi for 10 years and it is still straight and the finish is like new.
You can get a plain one for $200 or so.
As far as how it hits thats entirely subjective.

Your "mighty Lucasi" hits good, but the Lucasi cues I had hit better.
That's no shit
 
Well.... I went with a Mezz Sneaky, just pulled the trigger on it a minute ago.

I'm very appreciative of all the help guys, and if I lose any more games, it's all j2pac's fault! :D:D

Reading thread from front to back, consistencies found.
@1 Older
wood was very different then than now, we replant tree's and harvest wood between 10 and 20 years.
example: Brunswick used wood from trees aged 75 or 100 years, more.
That's no longer the case.

#2 Lucasi
The Lucasi custom cue is a strong player in the billiard Industry, consistent.
I don't know how they do it, their cues top out time and time again, Lucasi builds a good cue.
They know wood and how wood works, wood has secrets, Lucasi knows those secrets.

#3 McDermott
Older McDermott's are always mentioned, especially the C and D series.
Again, the woods used had been growing for a long time before harvesting,
pool cues made from 90 year old wood play exceptionally better than cues made with 20 year old wood.

Why didn't anyone mention Meucci :confused:
(just kidding)

Josey, Keith Josey makes a strong pool cue, excellent choice.

Lucasi's are made by TaiCan/Universal in China. That factory makes several brands(Lucasi, Predator, most ADAM,and others). They make over 30,000 cues/month. They buy a LOT of wood and cure it correctly. Very good cues.

Bill Stroud told me that he spent a lot of time teaching Lucasi how to make cues.
In Bills words "Lucasi makes a great cue".

GET A BRAND NEW DALE PERRY RIGHT OFF OF EBAY-
GREAT CUE-
PLAY GREAT ALWAYS VERY GOOD SHAFT WOOD TOO :smile:
 
Lots of $$$ made with Cuetec standard cues. $1,000,000 maybe? Strickland, Allison Fischer, SVB. The Prestige series can't be beat. $125 or so with the maple SST shaft. If it falls against a chair the chair gets hurt :-). They play as well as cues costing many times more.
