Excellent guesses

You guys are right on ...the silver work says McWorter and the design does look like it could be Chudy's work to me too. Neither guess is correct though.

It is not Wes Hunter or Josswest either. Rep to you guys

I don't want to dangle the carrot too long so I'll offer a small hint:

I shot close up pics of the inlays so you would not see the ringwork. Not that the rings are especially fancy, but they are like a trademark for the maker and might give the cue away. All his cues that I have seen have the same rings throughout.

I'll post a picture of the full butt sleeve and rings tonight after work if no one has guessed correctly.

I would guess Gilbert or Manzino.

Scott
You know I'm a big Gilbert fan...he is really one of my favorites. You and Big-tattoo are right that the abalone inlay looks Gilbertesque but this isn't his work. Rep to you

I was hoping someone might guess Manzino...I think that might be what Nick was getting at when he guessed Captain Bob. Surely Manzino works wonders with silver and offers fresh new designs. I would have guessed Manzino myself. This isn't his work either.

Another strong guess

(Ringwork) Ed Prewitt
Ralf

Prewitt is known for his gorgeous abalone ringwork. Your narrowing it down Ralph, that was a good guess based on a really thin clue. This is not a Prewitt

Arthur Queue von Deutschland ??
Not Arthur

OK if the cueaddicts don't know then it is time to offer a more substantial clue. I don't take any pleasure in anyone's wrong guess, though I appreciate every risk taken by you guys on this thread. Rep to you

This cuemaker builds few cues and this is a tough one to identify with so little info. Here is a better clue:

I bought this cue from the collection of John Schmidt

Is it Ron Haley?
Another clever guess. We all know and love Ron's work. His rings are original and distinct. This one isn't a Haley, though he is working on a box cue for me. Good guess Rep to you

How about Richard Black??

Not Richard Black

For sure he could do something like this and he works often with silver. Rep to you

The joint pin on this cue is 3/8 X 11
