Good choice of cues, IMO I shoot with a Viking F85. It isnt expensive or near the best it is something I take to bars. I am gomma buy me a good cue one of these days.
I just want to point out that Smorgass Bored, our most prolific lurker, would post a lot more if his keyboard wasn't so sticky from.... well I guess from eating in front of his computer ??...
And one more thing to you and other lurkers coming out of that crowded closet. Many people here have been posting for years using real names and I don't know of anyone to regret it. So unless you are hiding from child support payments (where did that smorgass bored name come from anyway?), at least think about it...
