On Black Friday I bought a Dunkel cue from Steve Dunkel. I picked the cue up at his shop and we played a few games and told a few stories since we are both from the same field.

Anyway the cue is very nice, the finish is superb, it was perfectly balanced for my taste, and the cocobolo wood he used had a lot of character. A nice looking cue.

I'd been playing with an OB cue so getting used to the 4 oz maple shafts took a little time. Now after about a month I would never go back to the OB, as a matter of fact I unloaded them at fire sale prices.

This is far from his fanciest cue but is classically beautiful and suits my taste just right. I love the way it plays and would recommend anyone in the market for a quality cue to give Steve some consideration.

As you said the cue isn't as much fancy but at the same time is a stunner and the wood used in the cue is gorgeous.I like the wrap too and matches nicely to the rest of the cue.
So,you have be proud on your new pick up and have no doubts this cue plays superb as all Steve's cues:smile::smile::smile:

I own 6 of Steve's cues and have a 7th incoming. They hit great and his performance shafts also play amazing. He is also one hell of a guy. Live near him as well so get to stop & hang out with him too.

Nice!!!

Those are some very nice cues. I own 3 Dunkel cues. They are all fantastic.

And, Steve is a great man. It would be hard to find a nicer guy... :thumbup:

The more I play with it the better I like it. Well balanced with a solid, predictable, hit.
