What does everyone think about Pechauer cues and how do they sell? I received a pretty good offer on a line of them and am debating on whether to take up the offer or not. Anyone wanna help me out?
I have several. I shoot regularly with a PL01 and a matched PL01 Jump/break with a cocobolo handle (it's a whooper at 23oz!)
There was a local guy who sold them, and pretty much introduced the whole area to Pechauer. I could easily count 15-20 people who shoot with them.
A friend of mine got a really sweet one at VF a few years ago. I has traditionally cut veneer points, not cnc. It's pretty much a one-off cue. From what I understand someone challenged Jerry Pechauer to make some veneered cues. He made 3 or 4, and this local guy picked one up.
They are very forward balanced. All his cues are this way. It took a bit to get used to, but I really like then way they hit.
I still shoot with a mcdermott when I go out, but it drives like a school bus compared to my pecahuer. The McD is really ass-heavy.
I think they are an excellent American made production cue. I can't speak to their pricing or how well they sell. I owned a lower end model when I was getting back into pool several years ago and thought it was worth the dough I paid for it.

I have owned one for a little over a month now, and I realy like the cue. The only thing I don't like, is that the shafts are real heavy and brings the balance point to 21" from the butt cap. I have the Ltd. 09 all Ivory. The quality is real good, in my opinion it's a good cue.
