The GOAT's cue??

garczar · Jun 15, 2018

Watching the AsianCulture event and was wondering what cue Efren is using? Some kind of wrapless full-splice. Anybody know? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDk9a3Bpf7oDid a little checking and found that the cue in question is the Diveney fullspice. Sames as the one in the DCC '15 pics.

This is from a few days ago when Efren was doing a exhibition at Club Billiards in Wichita, Kansas

The one in the pic and in that video is a Diveney. https://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=465792&page=2 Post #28. That cue is the same one he just used in Vegas.

Just my 0.2 worth, but I`m thinking Efren could use a broomstick with an elk master tip & kick the crap outta alot of players. Damn he can play Always enjoy watching Youtube videos of Efren.

I don't think Efren ever had a cue that he was known for. Some players were known to use a single brand cue for years (usually Joss or Meucci), never heard of Efren's name be associated with a single cue brand. I think he used whatever cue he liked that day and from some stories I read, to help a cuemaker by using their product.

Which suggests perhaps...just maybe

Diveney cues are excellent.

Thanks, Pat!

Shhhhhh.

Got that right. His sneaky's are waaay good. Pat and his son are great artists and good guys as well.

Afaik, Efren plays with a cue one collector contracts him to play with. With the agreement that that collector buys it from here after.
He's playing with full splice Diveney now afaik.

Efren has played with a Jessie cue ( the infamous cheap, long and very forward heavy cue ), Meucci ( one year under contract ) , lots of Judds after that and Mezz.

Efren with a dowel stick is better than me (and damn hear anybody else) with a Balabushka. Face it fans, he walks on water.

Equipment-wise, Efren is a testament and a constant reminder that all you need is a cue that feels right, MAYBE dead straight & a tip that feels great when shooting.

Someone asked him in Springfield, Mo and he said it was a Pat Diveney. It was the same Cue that is in your picture.

I agree, especially if that elkmaster has been through Jeffs hands.
Hope all is well with you Jeff, I'm still playing them, the best!

That isn't wholly accurate. The cue must also have black on it.

"Just my 0.2 worth, but I`m thinking Efren could use a broomstick with an elk master tip & kick the crap outta alot of players."

and in fact Efren said that he uses Elkmaster in an interview with Sam Diepp.

now broomstick without a tip, then we're Starting to work towards a spot...

... if he uses the brushy end, maybe.

Marky Mark · Jun 16, 2018

Lol @ Black-Balled!

Before he completely hangs them up, I would like to see him play 2 or 3 tourneys or exhibition matches using a Revo.
