The Greatest Hitting Cue Ever!!!

Rod said:
The word hit is used here so much it's sickning. Expressions like, it hits a ton, hits like a cannon, or I never hit with one or I hit with one etc. #1 its a front trying to sell a cue. Newbys or a pool fanitac who don't really know what they want in a cue. Or # 2 They don't know what the hell their talking about.

If I want to buy a cue. All I really want to know is it a good solid cue other than the specs that I'm looking for. If you tell me it hits like a cannon, you've just lost a sale. I've owned few cues in my life. Thats because I know what I like (very few do). I'm not out looking for an instant improvement and buying cues looking for the magic bullet.

I don't know what ever happened to the word feel because that's how we play. I don't know what a cannon or a ton feels like but I suspect I'd find out what their cannon feels like if I bought into such nonsense. It might be a boat anchor for all I know.

You guys just go ahead and HIT all you want. Hit is a violent motion, it's probably what you do when you play pool.

Add to that "you can draw the length of the table with this one" and "I ran many racks with it". Then they will say it was only used a few times for test hits. I guess you need to run many racks for test hits whatever a test hit is. Does the cue come with a performance sheet discribing the tests and the results?

Shorty was BANNED, but for POOR JUDGEMENT. But loves the Games, and Wheeling & Dealing Cues & Pool Stuff.

If i ever get to Florida I want to look Shorty up and buy him a Beer.;)
 
In my opinion sometimes with people said this is the best hitting cue ever well, they probably mean it or of course the BS tries to sell the cue.

In my case when I said this cue is the best hitting cue ever, I mean it however I ALWAYS BOUGHT more cue that I can afford. When I need the $, sometimes, well many times in my case, I have to part from the greatest hitting cue ever.

I'd rather spend $2000 to get a cue with points than $1000 plain jane cue from the same respected cue maker. The way I see it, if I'm going to spend some $$$$$, might as well show it to the world, look I got this fancy cue.

Just my 2 cents

Actualy, I made the the greatest hitting cue ever made just last year.
It is so good I wont even show it to anyone and I dare not play with it for fear of damaging it.

I also made the worst hitting cue ever made.
It hits so bad the but end plays best.

I also made the uglyest cue ever made.
It is so ugly I dare not take it out in public.

I am thinking of selling them on eBay as a set... what do you think they might bring?

I am sure he/she(?) will help you get the best price.
 
I did!!!!!!!!!!

I was an idiot and sold two cues that I owned that were the greatest hitting cues ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was the idiotic bug cue buying/trading frenzy I was on at the time. Hopefully I will get her back, but you cant look back just move forward.

It cracks me up when I see people who just bought a cue and then come on here and sell it. Everyone always says its the greatest hitting cue I have ever played with but it must go??? If its the greatest hitting cue why not keep it and sell another cue you have?? Are they all the greatest hitting cues?? If you go back and look at peoples post say they have sold 5 cues in all thier descriptions of each cue is "the greatest hitting cue I have ever played with but it must go my "collection" is too big and I gotta get rid of some cues" funny part is they just bought the cue a week before. QUIT SAYING its the greatest hitting cue IF IT WAS THERE WOULD BE NO WAY IN HELL THAT YOU WOULD EVER SELL THE CUE!

This is not directed at any one person I dont want a moderator or anyone else thinking this is to one person its to a bunch of people who keep saying its the greatest hitting cue.

By the way my espiritu/schick/scruggs/parrot/frey/szamboti/Black Boar and Hercek are the greatest hitting cues which is why I would never sell any of them.

Of course I dont have the szamboti or hercek yet but when I do I am sure they will have the greatest hit I have ever played with! :)

I will normally state the the cue hits really stiff or something along those lines, or it is one of the top XXXX cues in terms of feel, for me. I'm in it to "experiment" with the most cues I can, so I am always looking to trade. When I find something I like, I tend to keep it and play with it for a while (up to a year or two), and normally come across something else that is a little different.

When I come across deals, for the most part, I either get into them so cheap that the hit almost doesn't matter, or I get into it because of the hit/look/maker. However, unless it is a steal, I will not buy a nice cue that clicks or hits really bad, nor will I buy a butt ugly cue from a well know cuemaker, even if it hits good. It's hard to sell a wart!
 
I agree that the hyperbole is often a bit too thick when it comes to cue marketting.

Of my available cues, the best hitter for me is still my Gilbert, and it will never be for sale while I'm around :)
 
Honestly, one of the nicest hitting IMHO cues I have used is my wifes 10 year old Pechauer Pro-H with the old style Wood to Wood joint.

But, I snapped the shaft on it breaking with it a few weeks back.

So I sent it to Jackson Custom Cues and had Tony cut me a new Custom shaft with a black ring and cut it to the butt to match up perfect. He also used his special Phelonic Insert in the 3/8"-10 shaft and it hits 100% better than it did with the OEM shaft!

I hinestly believe the shaft is the "Hit" regardless of what butt you thread it on.

I'm a "314" guy so I could walk in the woods and cut down a Tree Branch and thead a Predator on it and love it instantly. I take my 314 off of my Pechauer and put it on my buddies old Schon LTD and it feels exactly like my Pechauer except with a Double Pressed Linen wrap.
