Well....I gave that fancy McDermott a shot. I didn't like the hit at all. Someone will - but I guess I just like what I like. Back to my Schon. It's like night and day difference. Trading the fancy McDermott and another cool JOSS to another buddy for a Schon R8 Dice Cue. Can't wait to get that...

Some of the members here are brutal. Archer is a living legend. Player of the decade in the 90s. He's had a few hiccups, but we are all human. Who hasn't? He inspired me to play pool back in the early 90s. He was the coolest with his big gold scorpion necklace, beautiful Schon cue...and winning...

I did play with a 3/8 x 10 D model years ago with a Predator 314 Shaft and really liked it.

Somehow, after some trading, I ended up with this McDermott Cue of the Year cue. I think it’s a few years old at least but was only test hit (supposedly). The workmanship is amazing. I don’t know if I like the design or not. There is a LOT going on. I haven’t really hit with the i shaft but...

Lou, a legendary one pocket player out of DC (who played 9-7 under Incardona and Grady - both gambled with him for high stakes) told me that he didn't stress missing or making a mistake. All he cared about was that he put 100% of his effort into every shot. He had a concrete plan for the...

Snapped a quick photo at home this morning of my NV cues. The one on the right was an old beater…my buddy had to replace the buttcap, and frankly I love the Delrin. Best $150 for a cue I ever paid.

I bought four different SIGEL models from Dick when he was selling them in 2009 as NOS I think. Great cues!!

Years ago I had the falcon version of the V-24! Sold it to a good friend.

Exactly!

I just purchased a New Old Stock Nick Varner World Champion Falcon (made in Canada) that Nick V had stashed away and recently wholesaled to Cue and Cushion in STL. The quality is amazing. It's like brand new - and has become my new playing cue. I absolutely love it.

I just purchased one identical to the second from the right. The owner had that cue with two original shafts, mint, ivory ferrules, and original Nick Varner case. I love it!

I was friends with Evan. We used to talk weekly. What a great guy and I love his Schon cues. I've owned many from the EC era. Well, I went two weeks ago to a billiard store in Springfield IL with a plan to buy a new Schon cue, just for fun. The store had multiple models for sale and from a...

You're playing twice a week? Once with a friend, and once to practice? It looks like you have a nice cue and shaft. I would advise that you just enjoy playing with your friend. Progression requires way more available time than what it appears you have to dedicate. On the 2nd day, I'd say you're...

So, I have a REVO and just don't like it. I do love the Z shaft. Well, yesterday I hit with my friend's $200 RHINO shaft. I must say, I like it much better than the more expensiv REVO. Just my .02.

I got on their list in 2005 I think...and it took around 16 years. I have a post somewhere on here about it. It was fun emailing Laurie once a year to check in...and she always responded in a timely manner. SW cues are legendary. I had mine a few years, enjoyed it, and sold it for a little...

I like the Predator Z shaft on my Schon cutt.

I'm with you, 100%. OR, in all of the FB cue groups every post is something posting a photo of a cue with a question "Value?".

Great cue. Same model McCready used in early 2000s and played so jam up with (used a Moori Med tip).

Josh's shop is near me and really cool. He is like a mad scientist in there...and his cues are amazing. And I love his taper/playability. Congrats!!

I just purchased a brand new JOSS sneaky Pete off the rack at my local billiard retailer (Cue and Cushion in STL) and I am INCREDIBLY impressed! Now, I realize this is subjective. I know…I know, BUT, the balance is amazing. The taper and butt size are perfect (to me). I think it has a...
