... and the smartest Indians choose the best arrows. Hence... buy a good cue.
The OP claims to be able to get out 8 out 10 racks...if he can see the ball. Now that's using his Players cue, with a good tip (which, imo, is really what's most important). Do you think with a higher priced cue he will run out 10 of 10? I think not... If he plays as good as he says, he should keep his money, and step up to play the big dogs...cuz they don't even run out 8 out of 10 racks (maybe once in a while).
To the OP...there's nothing wrong with the cue you have now, if you truly do play that well. The best players still run out, playing off the wall (house cue). If you want a higher priced cue...buy it because you just WANT it...not because you mistakenly believe it will help you play better (how much better can you play?).

Hello, I was wondering if it really matters when shooting with a high or low quality cue? For example I shoot with a players sneaky pete with a Tiger onyx tip and love it but Im wondering if im selling myself short by not having say a Joss, Predator, Or an Ob cue. Do you guys think it makes a huge difference? A little background may help, I have been playing for 18 years and i have always shot with a sneaky pete of the lower quality, first i had a 95-1 Meucci, then my current cue i purchased 10 years ago. I am a B+ to A player, 8 out of 10 times i have a clear shot i have the run out. I am thinking very hard about buying a Higher quality cue because i think it may make a difference, what do you think?

Save your money, if you're running out 8 out of 10 racks a different cue won't help you. I play with a cue that's worth around $3K and I wish for the day I could run out 8 out of 10 racks! That's strong in anybody's book!Hello, I was wondering if it really matters when shooting with a high or low quality cue?

its like having a b.m.w. or a chevy both will get you home but one has a better ride it want you like no more no less
pricier cues means two things, 1: design. 2: quality of material which means durability. You'll find cues on here that are 20 plus years old, still very much playable, that doesnt mean custom necessarily, well known manufactured cues such as meucci, joss, mezz and predator and plenty others offer the same quality and durabilty, but in the end its like others have mentioned, its a test drive kinda deal. plenty of people buy $2000 cues and never use them bc they dont "feel" right. NY pro Tony Robles is sponsered by predator, he can basically get any cue he wants for free, but he cant let go of his P2 with the 314 shaft, so basically that tells you all you need to know about cues.( i WISH i had that problem:wink![]()
