Jamie Crouch Custom Cue....Curly Maple
2nd cue from Jamie
Not lot of newer cue makers succeed to take my attention and certainly not this much but Jamie has and i was right....when i received these cues from him i was more than super delighted.
Fantastic workmanship, gorgeous woods used and incredible playability. Very stiff and kind of hit as to Sugar Tree cues but different at the same time.
At the same time, dealing with Jamie was super easy, enjoyable and pleasant from the very beginning. He was super nice, polite and helpful. Couldn't ask for a nicer experience.
Actually, i was so impressed with cues and everything so i ordered 8 or 9 more cues!
To introduce Jamie better to all of you, i pleased him to write me more about himself and here it is:Here's a little about myself. Thank you for the opportunity!I went to work with my dad in a job shop as a machinist apprentice in 1997. There isn't much in the way of tool and die equipment that I haven't worked on from manual to CNC. I've worked mostly in the automotive and aerospace industry during my 25 years in the field. I currently work in automotive as a Tool and Die technician for Nissan.
I started shooting pool around the age of 16 or 17 and have always enjoyed playing. I met Eric Crisp through a mutual friend and became friends around 2017. He invited me into his shop, where I spent many days helping out, mostly in the way I'm sure. I enjoyed picking his brain about his cues and cue making in general. After watching him build his cues for several years and a little encouragement from him, I bought my first cue building lathe in late April of 2024. To say that Eric has been an amazing mentor is a complete understatement.
And there's no way I would be able to work and build cues without the support from my amazing wife. She has been a saint through it all.
