Is your most often used cue and favorite cue, the same?

What brand/model/cue maker butt and shaft do you most regularly shoot with? In a handful of discussions that I have had, sticking with the same cue is recommended for skill development or to play consistently. Anyone disagree with this?

If you see these pointing at you, unscrew.

Is that bacote w/ebony handle on the right side? Standard maple shaft?

Nah. It's ash with jet black paintbony handle. Interesting it came with matte finish and some of the car care stuff I use got on it and it's now permanently shiny. Billiard Warehouse had 'em for 90 bucks lol.

Well maybe I am wrong but a Pool Player with Skill, can play very well with a House Cue.

A banger, is still a banger with a great Custom Cue.

I agree but I love playing with my cue, it just feels like it's made for me, I did play with a house cue a couple of months ago and won 4 or 5 games with it, made me realize how good my cue is for me......

I was just thinking if If I had the disposable, I'd be a low level whaler <_and_> whale. The expensive players would still be possessions and probably only of sentimental value.
