Cue Sticks of the Pro's

[Kevin Lindstrom]

I haven't been to many large tournaments to witness for myself. I was wondering if anyone could give some examples of pro's who play with "high end" cues as there regular playing cues and what the makes of cue would be per player.

At the U.S. Open, Shannon Daulton was using a Southeast Cue valued at $10 or $12 thousand dollars. It had a ton of ivory and silver inlays. The ivory points had wavy sides.
At their booth, Southeast also had a $30K version of the same cue, which include a lot of jewels.
I don't know how it hit, but it was drop dead gorgeous.

I read somewhere, that Jennifer Chen, of the WPBA, uses a Cognoscenti cue valued at about $30K. However, I have never seen that one close up.

Hey Rich,

Chalkers has Jennifer Chen's twin cue which you can check out at:

$35,000.

Also, I do know that Santos Sambajon plays with a PFD custom cue and Alex Pagulayan plays with a Schon / Predator shaft combo.

OMG!

Makes us paying $500 for a cue look like child's play.
