For what they were trying to accomplish, this cue could not have been better. My hat's off to Jerry and Sandra. Terrific work. And, of course, awesome photography by you.

As a recovering car enthusiast, I can't stop looking at it!

Recovering,lol,i know the feeling of getting out of the car scene,but to me pool is alittle more rewarding then drag racing or showing a car.
 
wow.. i really like the look of the alternating silver veneer in the points.. where it starts on one side of the points and then continues after the pic on the other side.. it really looks neat....

beautiful cue!

Haven't decided if I'm going to sell it, I only have four cues in my personal collection and I might make this the fifth.
Corvettes and cues are my two passions.
 
Very nice. Hold on to it. You might regret letting it go, but if you decide to sell it let me know.

Dick,

I saw this cue in person at the DCC, and it is spectacular. I hoped you would keep it for your collection, as it is very unique, and a spectacular piece of art. The Scrapbook to go with it really makes it very unique also.

Personal Collection

Dick -

I guess I am like the perverbal cat, I would love to see the other 4 cues you have kept as personal collection.

My pic would be your playing cue when I came out to visit you.

Your friend in pool,
Ken
 
Unique looking cue nicely done. A blend of cue/art. Thanks for posting it Dick. Maybe you can lend it to GM to use in a promotional ad. GM needs all the help they can get right now!

Z06

Is that your C6 Z06 in the avatar?

Very similar, except mine is black. My father always had Corvettes as I was growing up and I cannot imagine driving anything else. The '06/'07 Z06 with 505 hp is one sweet ride. Hold on to that cue, I hope to see it in person one day.
 
If you are really serious about keeping it -- Keep it!! I sold my collector car to buy cuemaking equipment. Wish I kept it and found another way.
