monster cues

I am with you on this one

As soon as I read monster cue or Hits a ton
or Plays lights out I leave the thread before I step in
any more Bull$hit.

Seems like every cue you see for sale has these cliché buzzwords , Monster , hits a ton , plays like Kong , plays lights out

Me being a cue collector who plays with every cue I own , always Wonder , if this cue is a Monster , 2 ton hitting , lights out player why are you selling it ?

If you base the definition of Monster on a cue you personally play best with and feels like a part of your arm . Then I guess my old mid 80s Huebler SP would be my Monster , Albeit its an ugly Monster no way anyone would look at that particular cue and say Man that's a good looking Monster you got there

If you define Monster by a Cues Aesthetic Value , then my Cocobolo Rat Merry Widow that Asisasdad was good enough to sell me is a Monster one of the most beautifully configured cocobolo Widows you will ever see , it plays well

Also if Looks alone define Monster my Meucci HOF-1 is a Monster the Cue is gorgeous , it hits like a brick , feels clunky as hell , would rather play with a house cue but its a pretty devil

Monster , Lights out players are definitely in the eye and hand of the beholder

at the Moment I own 13 cues, pretty humble collection , but I hit with all of them , when I am playing 10 ball at home in a two hour session I might play with 7 or 8 different cues , all have their good points and bad points in my opinion .

The funny part to me is the ones that hit a ton but have never been chalked, must be some kind of Osmois thing that just lets these seller know it hits a ton with out really playing with the cue.

because everyone knows only cues that cost north of $2K automatically hit a ton ;)
 
Some cues are just monstrosities but no one markets them like that.

What good would it do to hurt the cuemakers feelings, or even worse, his friends and family members.
Who wants to read that his best friends cues play like crap, or your dad's cues are ugly?
The ultimate insult would be for a dad to post that his son's cues are the worst ****ing cues he has ever seen;
"son, you were good at baseball, but your pool cues blow"
On AZ I only list terrific looking, monster playing, test hit, works of art, and locally I list all of my overpriced ugly cues that play like crap>:rolleyes:
