Dennis Searing. Yes, Mr. Searing. I was fortunate enough to have spent
a few hours with him last week.
After seeing his work, it convinced there can't be a better maker
EVER.
if you don't make cues, you probably will never understand the level
of his work.
I can go on and on, but I might offend makers in the hall of fame.
Joey, give me a break,with all due respect. All the guys mentioned in this thread could be in the running for most underrated cue makers BUT searing. He is the antithesis of underrated. I've been on AZB for 9 years. No single cue makers gets more accolades than Searing.. His wait list... Price for a plain jane... Lol. I'm not saying he isn't good. He could be the best in the world. But underrated is laughable.
I think you're underrating him.
And what I mean is, as good as Dennis Searing is, he's even better. But, yeah, you're right. Dennis doesn't belong on these lists, but I still agree withe the message Joey is saying.

I was going to post these same words (like a tribute ).
In the same sense as Joey's post, I think Dave Barenbrugge is under rated. His work is as good as anyone's and I would consider him in the Top 5 of all cuemakers.
Mike Durbin, Travis/Blackcreek, David Treadway.
I'm sure there has already been a thread about this, but I was just wanting to hear about some of the less talked about cue makers that deserve some credit. Because I have a few of the big name players and I swear my "unheard of" cue out plays them all.
