I have some big Gus's and play with them from time to time, I dont baby them-I break with them etc. I'm good at handling cues, I have put 2 dings in cues since 93(in the same week), so I never worry about them Gus's are built to play with and they will be as long as I own them,
altho i cant really afford it and dont need it as i have 6 cues already i put a deposit on a very high end cue, for my budget anyway. i intend for it to be my main player. i cant really see buying a cue just to look at.
