Unfortunately, I have had some bad luck and have to part with this beautiful cue. Travis completed this cue for the Valley Forge show earlier this year. The cue is absolutely gorgeous and I will try to post some better pics later this evening. I know these aren't that great, but they will have to do for now. The cue is in practically new shape and has rarely been played with.

Rosewood buttsleeve and points, signed "Blackcreek 06" on the forearm, Ivory joint with radial pin, ivory bushka ring above the wrap, chocolate lizard wrap, thick ivory hoppe ring in buttsleeve, 2 shafts with ivory ferrules (one shaft unplayed/chalked), weight 19.2 / 19.3.

Price: ----

I purchased this cue brand new from (Jamie)Worminator at New2YouQs, so he can attest to the quality of this cue and how beautiful it really is.

It plays even better than it looks. I wish I didn't have to part with it, but...
 
Do you know if Travis cut the cue at the top of the wrap to put the Bushka ring on? If not, and the full splice is intact, how did he do the ring? :confused:
 
Yes, he had to lose the full splice and since that was the case, he put the bushka ring above the wrap. If you notice, the points are very long compared to some titlists. I forget the exact details, but I believe there was something regarding the diameter of the original cue at the forearm that prevented him from keeping it a full splice.

I walked around valley forge six times and i picked this cue up each time. If I did not already have a cue on order this cue would be mine.:(

As soon as Worminator sent me the pics of this cue, I knew I had to have it. I am just disappointed that I have to let it go.
 
This is a great feeling cue. Well balanced and excellent feedback. The real lizard wrap really sets off the cue. Sorry you have to let it go Mark. Someone will get a very nice cue.
 
Cue is still available. Will consider near offers.
Thanks for the comments on the cue, everyone.
