I just purchased some items from them and received them last week. Been too busy to get out and see how they play. I played well some time ago but have not been on a 9 foot in years. Look forward to getting back in stroke and thought it would be interesting to try and do it with carbon fiber.
I purchased the Sneaky Pete with two Prime M 12 cm and two 12.5 cm shafts. I also purchased the break and jump cues and the extension. Hope to haul all that out and play in the near future.
Go get 'em.
Let me know how they play.
I was playing with my Becue today, with the white 12mm Prime, and was hitting them pretty good.
A young guy and I was banging around playing 8-ball and I asked if he wanted to play one-pocket, since a few weeks ago he told me that he liked to play one-pocket and nobody in Hawaii played it.
We flipped for the break and I won. I don't think he had a ball at the end of the game.
He broke the second rack and leaked me a ball on the first shot after the break and I think I won that one 8-1.
After beating him 8-0 the third game, he wanted to play 10-ball.
We banged around at that and he didn't fare much better, so he packed it up and left.
I've gotten so used to the Becue, that playing with a regular cue with a wooden shaft feels kind of foreign. There is definitely a BIG difference in the FEEL of hitting with the all carbon fiber cue and a cue made totally of wood. There seems to be more power with less force with the Becue. Maybe I'm imagining it, but, if I am, so are the other people who try it.
A lady who plays as a B+ in the tournaments has a REVO with a BK3 butt and she tried my Becue and was commenting on hit it seemed to be "more solid".
I have yet to try it without a glove. The painted surface is a bit more "tacky" than wood. I'm sure it would work just fine with a bit of powder, but I've gotten used to a glove and my bridge feels a tad too loose with the 12mm shaft. I played with a 14mm for dozens of years and I still prefer the feel of a larger diameter shaft in my closed bridge hand. I can't believe the muscle memory in my bridge hand still favors fatter shafts, even after playing with smaller shafts for the last few years.
That is one of the reasons I want to try the 12.5mm shaft.
and i cant influence your point of view in regards to a review by sponsored player. You have always an option either not to read such review at all or to proceed with extreme caution:thumbup: Fyi I am not pushed by Becue to write any review,thats my own iniciative to review my new cues (but they know i am going to write it). And if such review helps others to decide if they buy/test Becue or they stay away from it then all good. As you may know by now my reviews are very comprehensive and I comment both on positive and negative things, i really value my honor above all and Becue guys know very well that i am this way. My plan is to play with Prime-M for the next week to get the most info i can get from the cue and then i will relay that info here. Nothing more nothing less
