Best hitting cue you ever played with.

Ok, here are the rules. Hit is subjective, we all know that. But let's try anyway to compile a list of cues that we think are GREAT playing cues. The only rule is one vote per person. So think about it and pick the one cue out of all the cues you have been able to shoot with that you would keep if you could only have one of them for the rest of your life. Now of course you can put in a name of a cue you have never shot with just because you desire to own it and have heard it's a great playing cue but I hope that you will stick with cues that you actually had time to hit balls with for enough time to really get to know the cue. I will start, and this is a very tough decision for me because I have owned so many great cues. Keep in mind that just because a brand is someone's #1 choice the number 2 might be real close. But the object here is to see what sort of list we can come up with if you can only have one. I will update this post with a running list and vote count if it gets any traction. Sometime in the future I will tally the votes by brand even though there may be different "eras" and butt/shaft combinations. My #1 pick is Jensen. ______________________________________ The List - Brand - Votes George Balabushka - 1 (real Buska, not Adams) Joey Bautista - 1 Al Bautista - 1 Mike Bender - 1 Black Boar - 2 Leonard Bludworth - 2 Mike Capone -1 Cognoscenti - 2 Coker - 2 Dufferin House Cue 19oz - 1 (assuming original Canadian made Dufferin) Pat Diveny - 1 Billy Gibbs - 1 Mike Gulyassy -1 Greg Hearn - 1 Mason Houghland - 1 Huebler -3 Bobby Hunter - 2 Jimmy Ingram -1 Jacoby -1 Jensen - 2 Josey -1 Joss gold letter - 2 Steve Lomax - 1 MEZZ TA3, with the Hybrid Pro shaft. -1 Paul Mottey - 2 Kenny Murrell - 1 Chris Nitti - 1 Jim Odom - 1 Jeff Olney - 1 John Parris - 1 (snooker cue) PFD - 1 Jim Pierce - 2 Phillippi - 2 Jerry Powers - 1 Judd - 1 Kersenbrock -1 Kikel - 1 Hermann Rambow - 1 Edwin Reyes - 1 Bob Runde - 1 Samsara #1978, 314-2 shaft - 1 Dennis Searing -1 Schon (Runde Era) - 2 Schon - 3 Schuler -1 Schuler with pro taper shaft (not Schuler Pro) - 1 Chuck Starkey - 1 Sugartree - 3 Gus Szamboti - 3 TAD steel joint - 2 Tascarella - 1 Jerry Terbrock - 1 Varney - 2 Larry Vigus w/OB Shaft - 1 Larry Vigus - 1 Thomas Wayne - 1 (one vote invalidated) Mike Webb - 1 Skip Weston - 1 SouthWest - 1 Woodworth - 1 If I missed any let me know.
