prev posted on the jimboarmy site on 2-8-10 but felt it should have some exposure here too.

to start lets get the overused lines outa the way 1st.
hits a ton and the pictures just don't do the cue any justice.

now, the cue arrived friday morning wich was perfect since my wife was home so it didnt have to sit
outside all cold and lonley. i only got one small look of disgust from her when i got home so that wasnt
nearly as bad as it could of been.

upon unwrapping the cue the first thing that hit me was the finish. so clean, clear, and shiny, the finish is perfect .

next the wood. through a not-so-disgusted face my wifey actually managed an "oooh thats pretty" reffering to the range in color and figure in the tulip wood. she normally cares about cues as much as i care what drapes she's putting in the kitchen this month. even though these are great pics of the cue http://bhqcustomcues.com/AVAILABLECUESFORSALE.aspx you just cant get the full effect of the color. nor the grain in the blackwood. also the blackwood in between the the rings looks great but in the pics it just blends into the phenolic. NOT SO. in person its pretty distinct and a great effect. nice choice brent.

now back to friday. horrible day. i had left work at around noon due to an evil EVIL stomach bug. violent. soo violent i was so dehydrated and my ribs are still sore today. so part of the torture was new toy in hand. cant leave house. yeah.

well i finally got out sunday evening for a few racks and took to the cue right away. nice lively feel, had whitey doing whatever i wanted like played with cue for years (doesnt mean i pocketed anything)

overall quality is superb. the execution the fit the finish the materials --all top notch this is a keeper.
(i just dont like the lepro)

jer <---- gonna be needing to add a butterfly to the mix

PART 2

I got to take the cue out for a lil while thursday night to sandcastle billiards in edison nj.
Harry, a guy i know there, does cue repairs so i had him change the lepro tip (not a fan in general)
to a tan kamuii med soft. and then had him take the tip down about 1/2 way which really gives
the cue an even crisper hit. a few people were curious about the cue and hit around with it and were
quite impressed. Wali Muhammad, John Woo, Harry, and a few others took it for spin. Harry also
makes cues here and there he said the cue was put together great, and was impressed with how
the shaft played. the cue was very well received with many asking 'who made that cue, who?'
