If you know how to play a damn house cue will do the job. Pool is pool and nothing more. Put the time on the table and if you’re not running 3 packs within 5 years take up table tennis because pool is definitely not your game.😛
I collect cues but more importantly I play with them. And, in my humble opinion Steve and Wes Hunter make the best hitting cues. Solid and well balance cues.
