How do prather cues play?

I bought this Prather at SBE 2015. It is a well balanced cue that felt right in my hands when I played with it before purchase and still does today.
Prior to my purchase, I only knew that Prather supplied parts and was surprised to find they not only made complete cues, but cues of this caliber. The woods are cocobolo and kielwood.

They play jam up! I have owned a few. All were very solid players.

Hey,
i met Dan and his son in germany when they visited a friend /cuemaker/- they made buisness with him- and Dan also *taught* him some stuff. What i saw from Dan was really really impressive. It s not his main buisness to make super fancy cues- but believe me- if he wanted....he made fantastic cues. The playability was and is at a high level. The Prather family are great craftmen!
And to say *a price is worth*-- well that s very subjective. ON the collector market that might be right
But for very sure very good cues built by knowledged and expirienced craftmen.

I have 2 of Jeff's cues, one is a regular player, the other one sits at home for ocaisional use as I purchased it from Mike Massey after a show he put on. They play great and they are a solid build. I did have a clear coat issue after a year on the one I use quite often. It was repaired by Jeff at an honest price.
