Had these for a week and a half and just now took the
time to take a few not so good(shitty) pictures. I really
wanted a Craig Petersen and I remembered one that
was Kersenbrock/South West style at a good price so
it was right up my alley. I ended up with 4 cues and a
case, because I just can't control myself. I've wanted
an Omega/DPK for over a decade and a McDaniel
since I traded my Kun Fang Lee 10 years ago. Justis
cases are a no brainer for anyone and I couldn't pass
on an ebony on ebony Omega/DPK blank built by
Esoteric. Here they are and thanks for looking.
 
Here's the Petersen by itself. I know Sean of cueaddicts
is a big fan and so is Joey in Cali. Count me in the fan
club guys, Craig's cues look and play awesome.

Thanks again for looking, Jerry
 
New Cues

Beautiful cues, thanks for sharing. The Omega/DPK my favorite, I need to get me one. I still regret the one I sold back in the early 90's
 
Four beauties! Hard to look past the Peterson. He was a great cuemaker.

Thanks for showing your pictures. Have fun with them.
 
SBE shopping spree withdrawals?

Awesome multi-pick up once again Jerry. Good stuff here. That Peterson looks especially sweet in the line up. I'm not just saying that because I'm from Chicago and a Kersenbrock/SW style fan either. :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks gentlemen for the compliments. All the cues play great.
I've played with the 89 Omega/DPK the past 3 days. It may end
up being my player. Well balanced 19.5oz., ivory ferrule, and
very similar hit to a South West. You can really move and control
the cue ball with ease. They all play really good though.

Thanks again for the kind words, Jerry
 
Damn!! Four cues that scream...........play me!!
Love the Peterson. Very unique.

Enjoy 'em all..........:)

Have a great weekend,

I'm real sorry because...

Hy Jerry,
I'm really sorry but I almost couldn't look at your nice cues. Because I was already completely occupied by starring at your Justis Case. I think, it has been made either in Heaven or Hell! Hard to believe that something so fantastic locking with that fine touch of royalty, has been made from someone who's living between both!
IMO, that's for real one of the finest Justis Cases around. There isn't one single thing, which doesn't match together!
It must be a 1 of 1 and he made it just for you, like you wanted! Am I right? I saw Jack's signature and the year 2013 in silver, but I couldn't recognize on my monitor for sure, if the ornaments and lines on your case are also all made in (or efen of) silver?!
Btw, in only 2 and 1/2 months it's my birthday. So if you don't know what gift you could send me, what about that case! LOL
All the best from your Swiss friend, Roberto

P.S. Even if I'm very jealous i must admit, you can be very proud to call this case your own!

You're right Jimmy and these will get a lot of play. The Petersen cue is a real player. That Bill McDaniel cue plays like a champion, too. He may be the most under rated, under valued cue maker of all time. His cues hit like no man's business. Thanks for the compliments my friend.

al-capool, I got lucky on the Justis case. Someone else ordered it that way and it just kind of found me when I enquired about the Craig Petersen cue. Thanks for the compliments buddy.
 
Now that's some nice cues! I bet that Peterson plays as solid as anything you have tried!!!
 
Hey Jerry. I ALWAYS ENJOY looking at your cues. You have great taste not only in looks but more importantly playability. I am very happy to hear about your thoughts on the McDaniel cue. I just bought one yesterday and it should arrive tomorrow. I hope I feel the same way about mine as you do about yours. Congratulations on some GREAT pickups.

Thank you Mark for the very kind words and a belated welcome to AZB. I love good looking cues, but they have to play good, too, of course. These meet all of the criteria and then some. I prefer wood to wood, which is what the McDaniel cue is, but if you got piloted SS or ivory on the way, you won't be disappointed in your McDaniel cue. I think back in the 70's or 80's, Gus Szamboti said that Bill McDaniel cues were the closest thing you could get to one of Gus' cues in playability. I remember reading that somewhere. You'll be happy, I'm quite sure.

Thanks Shane for the compliments and you're absolutely correct, that Petersen has a rock solid hit and then some. Hope to see you at the 'Shoot Out' in a couple of weeks my friend and I may have 1 or 2 of these with me.

Don, some of these items should look familiar...lol. I enjoyed doing a 2nd deal with you and I'm looking forward to a 3rd when time and money (mostly money...lol) allow. Thanks again buddy.
