I would add Tiger to the list. I know Dennis Orcullo would completely agree.

My favorite, which is the one I'm using now, is a 2005 Martin.
It features an unadorned curly and birdseye maple forearm, bushka rings, rosewood butt sleeve with four small ivory diamonds, old style green and white wrap, and a fitted Predator shaft with Moori medium tip. :smile:

i've said it before and i'll say it again. my votes go to andy gilbert ( the man has figured it out!!)
my second vote goes to BCM (Bryan Mordt)
Bryan has also nailed the cue making thing!!! also he's open to building what you want how you want it. his thin handle and long taper make cb control and ball pocketing easier in general!

Serves you right...
I've hit with a lot of very strong hitting cues over the years, but the best one.....bar none....was an older 6 point McDaniel with veneered prongs and flat face phenolic joint and 3/8-11 stainless pin. Man, that cue had it going on !!!!!!
This is incorrect. I'm in contact with the factory and he is in almost everyday around 10AM. He's very helpful and will answer all questions.
My favorite is Meucci. Sorry to the haters -I have nothing to hate. I was first given a custom cue as a xmas gift 09- Meucci Green Hornet. Great cue- Went by the factory a couple of months ago- They have built a family billiards room in the front of the factory. He gave me a lesson and I've been off and running ever sense.
My .02 after watching Bob shoot. Go practice- he shoots lights out - hands me the cue- yeah that same shot not so easy.
His 1st rule- chalk up before every shot.
rule 2.. hehehehe
Cheers,

Mike Cochran Cue
Then or tied with Tim Scrugggs Cue old tappers for old cloth and new tappers for new cloth.. Black Boar hasn't been tried yet though. Very old Meuccies and Helmstetters are sweet for sure.

great minds
I also played with schons and others and my current and last cue is my trusty custom jacoby and despite calls to a lot of cuemakers before i went with Brandon and Dave they hit a homerun on this build and i will never look back either.

I shoot with a late 60's, black label, 18 oz., Brunswick Hoppe Pro. I was wanting to have the thick butt turned down and replace the brass joint with stainless steel; but it shoots so good, I can't bring myself to change it. I'm scared it will change the feel.
