Professional Players who use Southwest Cues?

[Matt_24]

What pro-players use Southwest cues these days?

I know that DD from Roy's basement started a month or so ago with the "Southwest" cue experiment - and I'd say it was a big success based on his Derby City performance. This success goes to show that you can switch from a LD shaft (He was using MEZZ) to a normal shaft pretty quickly if you put in the time, energy, and focus. I really admire his game and look forward to seeing him win big for a long time. He reminds me of Nick Varner. He just gets down, no drama, just plays hard and never gives up until the end.

Does Kevin Cheng still use Meucci - or has he gone back to his Southwest cue yet?

Pretty sure that Wu from China and both the Ko brothers use SW's. They are quite popular with Asian players.

Cheng is still using Meucci as of last week.

Per Chris Nitti, he signed Tommy to a deal to play with one of his (Nitti's) cues

Well, SW does not give away cues.

AFAIK, SW doesn't advertise nor sponsor either.

Just imagine the pros talking to Laurie and giving her stories .
Heck, they'd pay to get a SW at current price and not get on the list.
I know of at least two pros who somehow "lost" their SW cues.
I don't know how they got their SW but both claims sounded like a story we've heard many times.
