I’m getting the feeling he may be the only one. Maybe not.Addressed in the references thread...
Well, yes, I did. I had to have the same brand and style as Irving Crane. I managed to do that.... Has anyone here selected their playing cue mainly because a pro uses the same brand?
I recently purchased a Harvey Martin because many of the old time greats also went with him.Well, yes, I did. I had to have the same brand and style as Irving Crane. I managed to do that.
It is smooth and has very little friction, especially with an open bridge. • It stays cleaner than a wood shaft, which can be difficult to keep sealed, clean, and smooth (with no scratches or dings). • It is easy and safe to clean with a damp towel. • It doesn't warp even under humidity and temperature extremes (so you can leave it in the trunk of your car in any weather). • It doesn't scratch easily. • It doesn't ding when you hit balls, bang up against furniture, or drop it on a hard and dirty floor.
MFGers only care that people flock to their brand. Investing some scratch in flag bearers seems to be the most convenient way. Trying to forge a monopoly is a little much.But I'm going to ask it anyway. Prompted by the thread about top pros dropping out of a tournament over a sponsorship dispute.

If you are never going to play with it; it is not a playing cue--which was the original question.I recently purchased a Harvey Martin because many of the old time greats also went with him.
Not sure if I'll ever play with it but that was the reason.
IDK if I'll play with it or not. It needs some minor work before I make that decision.If you are never going to play with it; it is not a playing cue--which was the original question.
Never.But I'm going to ask it anyway. Prompted by the thread about top pros dropping out of a tournament over a sponsorship dispute.
