2010 Cue of the Year

[Worminator]

I thought this might be fun... anyone can post a cue they received new from the cuemaker this year in this thread. After one week I will narrow it down to 12 cues, and then start a poll for the final voting. I understand my choices will be subjective, but I promise to be fair and not let friendship or other influences sway my choices.

I will start it off with the following cue. It was a tough choice for me between this cue and my Gilbert box cue.

not a stick of ivory but im pretty happy with this one especially since he only made something like 5 cues this year...

I am sure there will be fancier, but it does meet the requirements.
I'd like to think there is an elegant simplicity to it.

I didn't buy a cue this year, however, I wanted to say that this is a great
idea for a thread. Looking forward to seeing many more great cues that AZ'ers purchased this year.

Sorry guys but Steve's BB is above and beyond anything made this year without question. (posted in this section on 12/17.) It's not even close. Tony is on complete different level from pretty much anyone else building cues right now.

hey

Some real nice cues. Wish I could have a collection but I just dont need them. The Gangster cue is very original. The BB that tikkler has is phenomenal. But from what I have seen, the Evolution cue is the sickest thing I have seen this year. I say Manzino.
