On TV, do you notice the looks of a cue a pro plays with?

I don't, but Sha Sha Lui is using a beautiful all white cue. but her's looks like the bottom half is painted?

Her's stand's out, because it's so simple. I love that. :wink:

I used to have nice sleeper, a solid chunk of curly maple from the joint down. Simple elegance. Didn't Predator make one like that?

I'm watching her vs. Park on stream.too far away,unfortunately. It's hard to tell what kind of cue a player is using on screen,for me.
 
I always thought it would be cool if when they announced the players for any kind of televised or stream match that they gave a little more information than just their name. Something like, sponsors, home town/room, cue they are playing with and maybe a few specs on it like weight and tip. Scott Simpson used to mention the players sponsors when introducing for accustats videos.

I often notice the cue a player is using. One that really stands out to me is that crazy looking Joss the Souquet used to play with. It was very identifiable, even from a distance. Another was a really cool looking wrapless Viking that Corey used to play with.

This is the best pic or Ralf's cue I could find. I couldnt find one of Coreys but it was the one that he won the 2001 US Open with.

Predator has an all white one that's pretty awesome.

Honestly, I never look at what their cues look like. Heck, one day I realized that I wasn't even sure what MY cue looked like! So, I took a picture of it in case it ever got stolen or lost. To me, it's just another tool I have of many types of tools. Now, the tip, that I know exactly what it looks like.:wink:

Is it me or is that cue about a foot too big?
