Very nice, hope mine looks as good and plays better than it looks.

Just one If I had to pick just one it would be Hercek, that is only because he completed the cue to a personal design. If it wasn't for that it would be Mike Bender, I have owned two of his cues and will have another (in process) but he is a friend I have shot with, drank with and BS'ed with...

I am hoping my favorite will be Pernambuco.

I am not posting anything new here but I will add my positive support of Steve Dunkel. The gentleman is very positive in correspondence, has offered his opinion and knowledge. Steve isn't the only Cue builder out there that does so, I have dealt with others that were as accommodating but some...

I almost asked best cue for under $400.00. I can't say it's the best cue for under $400.00 but I bought a Olney a year and a half ago to use as my car and on job site cue. For the money it plays excellant. I believe for the money it's a hell of a cue.

I just got a SS360-2 Shaft from Bob. I am impressed.

OK first off no disrespect to either builder, from what I have gleaned from this site both men make an excellent cue. This is geared towards those that have either owned and played with both. As a rule do they play similar any real difference between them. I realize that play is a personal...

Of the ones I have had or played with in no order Bender Hercek Searing

I am going to throw my 2 cents in here John's cues are all hand made and they play. I sold my second one to a buddy but just to fiancé my Southwest. I miss the cue it PLAYS.

This speaks to me This speaks to me

Here's One I have never seen another like it.

I am sometimes amazed at what we consider cheap. No offense I think the cue is worth the money but $1600.00 isn't cheap.

I didn't read the reply's administration I didn't wish to sway my answer. If you can play you can play, if the hit gives you confidence than yes.

Agree combo the 2-3 lightly slide the cue past the nine, cut the 3 come down for the 4, play to get a shot on the 5 into the side get an angle on the 6 to come off the rail for a slight angle on the 7 to the corner leaving a fairly straight shot on the 8 to the corner with some draw to bring...

Check out Bender Cues, his other half knows does the art . Now that's a marriage!

OK, take this from someone that has commissioned cues from; Gus Szamboti Barry Szamboti Bill Schick Mike Bender Perry Weston Joel Hercek Southwest Dave Kikel Eddie Faris John Bender and bought a non commissioned Gina Blackcreek John Bender Southwest and a few others, all were played a lot...

I know it's got to be a great player but from a personal view short points don't do it for me .

Not only are ALL of Mikes (pretty) they PLAY!
