Who knows. :) The cue has a perfect record in professional tournaments. One tournament - one win!

My other McDermott plays pretty good, too. :) CJ Wiley was able beat Earl Strickland in the finals of the Million Dollar Challenge Tournament in 1996 with it. The Million Dollar Challenge Tournament cue is the one on the bottom in the two photos above. (The tape is where I was measuring...

I was surprised they were able to perfectly match the rings on the new shaft to a cue that was made around 40 years ago.

I bought this C-14 model cue new in 1985, when the D-series cues came out. I was playing with my second custom Richard Black cue at the time and I wasn’t in the market for a cue, but my old boss at the pool hall where I worked as a kid was a dealer and I was able to get it at a super-low price...

These Jackpots are too sweet to get rid of.

That is what I was thinking, too, but I wanted a second opinion. Thanks.

She would have got rid of the SW in a minute if she ever hit the Jackpot. :)

Not if that is what she spent the same amount of time with and had never used a SW.

I lived in Taiwan and have relatives there and go there every so often. I know how they think. Status is everything over there to the majority of them. Having a SW shows “wealth”. It has nothing to do with it being the actual best product. One, or more, of the first pros there became a...
