    billiardcue.com

I dont want to accuse them of anything but some of them look a little photoshopped so I was wondering how accurate the cues are compared to the pics. I know in general that pics dont always do a cue justice but I was just...

    Lizard wrap

    I was just wondering what type of lizard do lizard wraps come from and what part of the lizard? Ive seen some cues with genuine lizard wraps and its seems to me like that would have to be a pretty big lizard for it to be one piece. Is there any difference in the feel of genuine and lizard print...

    Cue Price = Quality?

    I know there have been threads on this before but I have to ask. Does the price of the cue necessary determine the quality of it. Will the more expensive cue play better that the lesser one.
