Help with opinions about O'Min, or Cueroc pool cues?

[vintagecollectibles831]

I am curious if any of you guys have any experience playing with one of these O'Min, or Cueroc pool cues?

They look really nice to me.

They are very reasonably priced, from $400-$600, which seems reasonable compared to how much other production cues cost these days.

I really love the look of this Ebony and Bocote model O'Min, for example.

The Maple shafts are said to be made using a Carbon Core too, so I imagine the hit is very stiff, but I have never tried one.

I can't find any reviews on these cues either.

Anyways, I am curious if any of you guys have any experience, and opinions about these cues.

I also like a few of the Cueroc models, which I think might be a sister company to O'Min, but not sure.

These cues retail in the $400-$600 price range.

The Ebony with Carbon Fiber shaft model seems reasonable too, at just a little over $500.

Thanks for any thoughts, about either of these cues, if you gave any experience with either of them.

I do not think it is the same company who builds the pool cues.

One is from Thailand, and the other is from China.

Oh, a famous Pro uses Longoni. Niels Feijen. I really love the Niels Feijen model, but it is too expensive for me, lol.

I do not know. Maybe it is the same company, but the pool cues are made in China. The Snooker cues are made in Thailand. If it is the same company, and the snooker cues are high quality, then maybe the pool cues are also high quality.

I just wish there were some user reviews out there, to read, about them.

Anyways, I really love the look of that Ebony and Bocote (segmented handle) model. Very tempting, even for a cue that does not seem to be very popular in America.
