I recently purchase my Blackcreek cue also, it's my current playing cue. I'm impressed with the playability and workmanship of this young and upcoming cuemaker. Play well with your new cue
 
Here's a list of some of the bigger name cuemakers I have or once had in my personal collection. Some I've had only one of and some several of. As you can probably determine, I'm generally more partial to the older, more classic style of cues rather than new, high-tech, and gaudy...although I love my TW "Snap Dragon". :) Sean

Craig Petersens
Kersenbrocks
Omega/dpks
Libras
Burton Spains
Frank Paradises
Palmers
Rambow
Harvey Martin
Eddie Laubes

Barry Szambotis

I was a cue collector before it was cool! lol I've had 14 or 15 Szamboti's (12 at one time), 3 Balabushka's, probably 10 Bill Stroud Joss, a few Richard Blacks, 2 Mottey's, 2 Paradise, a Rambo, too many Hoppe's to count, a Tad, a Gina, Lot's of old Palmer's & Vikings. Unfortunately I sold most of them when I was learning cuemaking and equiping my shop. Of all the Szamboti's I've owned, I only had 2 that I paid over $500 for, and one was the only one I had made for myself. Had one that had belonged to Danny Diliberto, who gave it to Kelly Simpson. I got it after it had been fixed by Gus, when Kelly broke it over a pool table because she dogged a shot! lol Had a couple that had belonged to Gary Spaeth, one that had belonged to Daddy Warbucks. I was also once subpoened to court as an "expert witness" on high end collectable cues (primarily Gus's).

I've also had about 50 cars over the years that would rank in a class like "Bushkas or Boti's" that I also sold way too cheap! It's all a matter of timing and keeping food on the table!

Just more hot air!
