Fedor New Cue?

Indians didn’t use shitty arrows.. stupid saying

But they probably did. The ones with shitty arrows just didn’t survive too long.

High profile sponsored player is expected to switch to a newer model constantly. Essential part of marketing and creating a buzz over a new release. He’s/she’s paid to do that.

But he didn't change sponsor, just a cue.
The interesting part is both his last cue and this one are not of the shelf Viking cues while he still wear the Viking logo on his shirt and Viking are not on his sponsors list on his web site, just Triple 60 (which is still Viking), maybe they make customs for him, maybe they are Triple 60 prototype cues.
Some find it interesting without the urge to buy anything or thinking that getting it will make them a better player, just a point of view of a gear head.

I didn’t say he switched sponsors, I said they switch cues based on sponsors money. Sponsors always want them to switch and use the newest and latest offerings to sell them. Like SVB going to Cue Tech’s CF stuff when they came out with it. It creates issues at times as well. Kaci liked Predators “2” version shafts and squawked when they wanted him to switch to newer versions as he didn’t play as well with them. It’s always about pushing the latest thing.

SVB's case is a little different as he was closely involved in designing the Cynergy. Wasn't any 'strongarming' Shane into carbon-fiber. Filler went back to wood for a while until Pred made a shaft he liked. The players still have the final say in what they use.

I wish I could like this more than once. I MOST DEFINITELY shoot MUCH BETTER with MY CUE, period. I will do perfectly fine shooting without MY CUE, but I am 1000% much more comfortable shooting with MINE. Brian

It’s the Indian not the arrow.

You can’t play anywhere near Fedor no matter what kind of cue you use.

Instead of thinking about cues, you should spend your money on lessons.

Good players can win with crooked cues off the wall.

Ok now that we’ve got all that out of the way, it looks like Fedor was playing with a different cue at the Derby Bigfoot matches.

Got any info?

You forgot. "You don't need that cue when a Schmelke will work just fine."
