Sometimes the cue must pay!
I was walking down the road one time with a buddy of mine. We were young, maybe 12 or 13.
We passed a yard that had a dog laying there just going to town licking himself.
My buddy said, "Man, I wish I could do that!"
I told him, "You better not, he'll bite the shit out of you...."

Gandalf didn’t have a magic wand. He used a staff.

I think if I tried to pinpoint the reason I changed cues last time I would have to say it's because I snapped mine in half
I just enjoy trying different things to better decide if it is something I would like or not. Once I find something I like, I will keep it and use it. I had to try a lot of different tips and shaft diameters before I found what I preferred. When i started i preferred 13mm, now I prefer 12.5 and find a 13mm feels odd in my bridge.
Sometimes i find something i love, sometimes i find something i hate. A friend recently got a Viking, and it was the first time we tried one of their LD shafts. it really hit nice.
I will never be pro, but i enjoy the nice toys.

I'm pretty close to this. Bought a Huebler and played with it for over a decade, still have that cue but now that I'm getting back into it after a 14 year hiatus I decided to retire my Huebler and found a Ned Morris I like. Two main cues in almost 35 years.
I've got a few others I bang around with but the Ned Morris is my everyday player.
Cause I have a bunch and I like to use them. "Getting dialed in" to a cue should not really be that major of an undertaking.
The stick dont matter

Nah, that was Sammy Jones!
I've played for over 50 years and I missed a ball one time.
I'm trying to find a cue that can make that ball.

The Lion showed up one time raving about a Z shaft he’d been running 100s with.....
...I felt it was a bad choice....set up a shot...4.5 diamonds long...half-ball cut..
...shot comes up at 9-ball once in a while....more often at 1-pocket....
...gotta hit with maxi inside english at a slow speed...told him he gets one shot...
...he hit the ball dead on....he wanted to set it up again..told him...if that was one shot in
a tournament or for all your cash....it’s all over.
That shaft handles a snooker ball better than a pool ball.
In golf, you can hit a green from 80 yards with a three wood....
..but a guy with a wedge will rob you.
I think a good cue is important
I used to travel with an 18.5 oz Joss and a 20.25 oz Szamboti.
...sometimes conditions demanded the heavier or the lighter cue...
...and the Joss was always for one-pocket.

Sometimes some used piece of toilet paper steals your cue.
Like my very ex boyfriend.
