    Ebony and Red Mallee

    Duane, Thank you I can't say Mikes Cues are the Best but I will say they are among the BEST. I have had 3 of Mikes cues over the years from a ornate cue to this simple one. The other two played and I am expecting this one will as well and really wish I had my first one back!

    Ebony and Red Mallee

    Talked to Mike Bender about 4 years ago and Christmas Eve got a text from him that it was done. Planning on seeing him in a little over a week. Mike is working in Anchorage and lives in Delta so I don’t believe he is turning out many cues. This cue doesn’t push Mikes ability at all how ever I...

    Probably done

    Yes I regret parting with some of them but circumstances at the time. There are four I’d love to still have in no order. Hercek Searing First Bender Southwest Couldn’t afford to do it though. The two I will have will have to do. I am very impressed with the Cocus Wood cue Steve Dunkel built...

    who makes the best playing cue???

    First I don’t know that there is a best playing cue as much as I’d like to claim some of my cues were made by the best. They were definitely made by those in the conversation as the best. I like cues made of good tone woods and my heart tells me they play better how ever my head tells me a well...

    Cue butt material

    BBB, Jamaican Cocus Wood was considered the premier wood for bag pipes but was about used up an near impossible to obtain so other woods such as Blackwood and now I believe Mopane are woods of choice.

    Cue butt material

    Cocus wood makes a great cue I know of two one made by Dennis Searing one by Steve Dunkel both play great. Finding a decent piece of Cocus wood is a chore and $$$$&. Pernambuco is also a great playing wood but also difficult to find. My personal thought is a good tonal wood has attributes to...

    Playing Cue

    I am going to go out on a limb here and state that the builder of a cue makes no difference to your win loss record. I’ve picked up a basic bar cue and as long as the tip is correct won games. I have had MANY CUSTOM cues and yes they provide a feeling of familiarity but they don’t mean i’ll Win...
