For me it's:

Judd Fuller JT-1
Scruggs Sneaky (actually sneaky)
Steve Klein Titlist Conversion
Richard Black (maybe one of the baron models)

I have the Judd, and another rare 6pt ivory Judd, so check those off the list. Still looking for the right opportunity on the others, though. I know Klein as well, so once I get some disposable income I'll probably check that one off the list next.

So what are your bucket list cues?

Tascarella is a close second.

Barrenbrugge.
And I'm itching for a South West.
There are plenty that I'd like to try, but those are two that I want in my collection.

I think (and hope) I'm done buying but I have a certain Doc Frye in mind. His Ebony with stainless rings and a nice Rich Q would be must haves.

Skins is right.....much to my ultimate chagrin.....I've spoken with Joel this year and he was terrific.
We discussed the specs I want and he said he's made cues like that but not a whole lot of them.
Naturally, his wait list is closed because it has just become very long.....he said approaching 13 yrs.
I was able to enjoy a discussion of full splice vs partial splice cues and his approach & thoughts too.

Nonetheless, Tim got it right.......the Hercek I want will be...and has been......very hard to locate. But
it keeps my motor running and I can live with what I already have, especially after getting my last cues
from Bob Owen & Jerry Rauenzahn. Both cues turned out just absolutely splendid and that helps to
ease my frustration over not finding the right Hercek cue for my small collection.

I'm also on Joel's list and should come up in the early 2020's. I might be on Searing's list but I haven't been able to contact him so who knows on that front. That said, I want all of the cues but my budget is pretty small.

I'm not sure how soon I should start trying to come up with a design for the Hercek. I could drive myself insane over the next several years!

I would say a Bushka rendition that would be considered one of the best.

All the best,

Like DJ they're ordered, but getting them now ?

Southwest ordered 2005 production to start 2-2017
Hercek ordered 2006 - Joel said I'm 2 batches out
Ginacue ordered 2015 - who knows anymore ?
Murray Tucker ordered 2014 -should have kept the one I had
Ed Prewitt ordered 2015

BlackBoar - only if franko lets go of the one he has that fits my criteria

I will only have a total of 12 keepers. I have 6 of them now.

Should I have to go with plan "B" on some
to make 12... I have them in mind.

I dont know how many cues Bill Schick made over the years, but he is my favorite cuemaker.

I like his diversity in his cues, and when you set one of his next to any other cue, its obvious why he is my favorite cuemaker.
