    Great experience with Varney Custom Cues

    Is TLV The Real Deal? Did The Legendary Varney, (herein now known as the "TLV") ever take cues to Valley Forge to be reviewed and critqued by someone other than the Varney Gang ??? The Varney Gang seemed to think that his cues were going to VF and that the accolades would be overwhelming. I...

    Fs Varney Jump/break Cue -- Mint!!!

    I Am So Confused With all the fantastic jump/break cues out there, at prices as low as $60, why would someone spend so much money on one of these? I'm not a world beater and I'm not the brightest guy in town so help me understand what's going on here! The J&J's are great, the Elite...

    So many cuemakers!

    Go Omen or Klein (Or Both!!) My personal preference would be an Omen or a Klein with the Dayton a close third. IMO an Omen plays and has a SW feel where as Klein and Daytons play a little softer. You can't go wrong with any of those 3. Never had a Morris so my not mentioning them is only...

    How much does your cue help your game?

    Agreed. I guess I am assuming that a person has gone thru a bunch of cues and finally realized the weight that works best, the flex in the shaft, the tip etc and has all that stuff dialed in. My emotions tell me that a new cue might help, but my intellect (or lack of) and my pocket book tells...

    How much does your cue help your game?

    Good Question There has to be some type of psychological benefit to having a cue or THE cue that you think is THE ONE. However, as the player becomes familiar and intimate with THE ONE, the magic and mystery could wear off. At that point, you either realize whats happened or its off to buy...

    Is Such a Thing as A 1pocket Concept?

    "Concept" Unqiue To The Individual I am not the OnePocket player that many on this forum are but I have got to believe that given the fact that the object is be the first to make 8 balls, the individual player has to play to his or her strengths in combination with their personality and develop...

    Radial Pin

    Makes Sense That does make sense Joey and if I hadn't noticed that the 3 radial pin cues I do play with or have access to hit noticeably softer I wouldn't have thought a thing about it. I have always thought and been told that hit and feel is created by many things of which the joint is not a...

    Radial Pin

    Other than customer choice, why would a cuemaker decide to use a radial pin or a 3/8-10 or 11 as his or her preferred pin over others? It seems like a couple of years ago a lot more cuemakers were using the Radial Pin whereas now, it seems like I see a lot more 3/8-11's. I always thought the...

    olney 6 pointer fs/ft

    It Does Seem Reasonable My wording may have been a little ambiguous. I was saying that $700 does seem like a reasonable price and was surprised no one had or HAS taken the cue off your hands. Have you not had any acceptable trade offers?
