I go with my brand because it’s super expensive. And super expensive equates to better pool. Everyone knows this.

I guess we could start another political thread ?

I see you're only a few months in but you need to realize these threads have been going on forever and they all accomplish the same thing: nada. BTW, i use a Mezz(AXI-K). I got to test hit it, liked it, bought it. IMO Mezz makes the highest quality 'production' cue you can buy.

My bar cue is a inexpensive SCHMELKE. I also have a Schon for when I will be paying more attention.

I use Schon and Pechauer only because I can’t pronounce Joss and Viking

Use what feels best.

That’s the short answer to the question

My current is the best so far; henceforth BSF. It's a frankencue made by some Chinese guys and some Chinese machines in some Chinese place - probably places and probably in China.
#1 and #2 criteria after <good enough> are cheap and not gaudy.
I cannot play with a cue who's look I don't like. Definitely the arrow...

That is the only answer....

Played a tournament where the guy forgot his cue and went around picking up and checking tips on the bar Cues. He pulled a second place against a very solid field

I retired my Richard Black so I went with a predator. I wanted something with all this new tech. I wanted something with a Carbon fiber Shaft, Extension adjustable weight etc.

Cuetec Avid Era linen wrapped butt with carbon fiber shaft, at 19.5 oz.SS Kanui clear tip. I am not the best player out there,but definitely love the cf shaft.

Scruggs. I have others also, but I prefer to use custom cues that last forever and increase in value rather than production cues that lose value.

I like the ones that hit a ton and only have been test hit.

 

[FunChamp]

As long as it's straight with a good tip, I can play with anything. Actually seem to play best with a Players sneaky. Miss my Mike Irwin though

Nothing sucks more than ordering a cue and end-up with only a 3/4ton model. Brutal.

I got a Southwest I've had since 87 I used until I stopped mid/late 90's. A nice Joss I never really used. Starting to play again a little. Use a sneaky Preadator over a Mezz sneaky because I like the quick release extension. I like the Mezz hit a little better, just now used to the Predator. If something happens to it like disappearing or some damage, I'll still sleep. To be honest, my talent level seems about the same with all of them. On good flashback days I'll consistently run 30's to 60's straight pool with any of them. 2 days later I'm lucky to run 3 to 6 balls in an open rack with any of them. Who needs a rollercoaster.
