I have a Bob Hunter custom cue worth 2,000 dollars - Cocobolo with ivory stars and birdseye maple points. I have had it about 8 years, and after having this one, I have never considered playing with another.

I got to watch her play while in San Diego at the WPBA event. She plays pretty darn sporty with that Hunter as well!

Dislike me all you want.. You will really hate me if I listed all my collection cues with their prices... Anyways... you might dislike me but Citibank loves me.... :D
 
Gina, Tad, or Richard Black

All -

Typically play with a very plain Tad. Sent it back for some work, playing with the Gina. Its better than the Tad. The Black is something else too.

My Lucasi from eBay

I bought my Lucasi on eBay for $89 (in '02) - I love it!

My Balabushka that I played with for over 25 years "On The Road" was authenticated by John Wright (in '95) and has an offer with it for $23K.
All is in a safety deposit box.

Had a Schon Ltd 423 1000$

Meucci Original 350$

another Meucci Original didnt pay anything for it, but worth about 1000$

Predator SP paid 175$



The cue i am using now is a Espiritu that i payed 400+tax I love the way it plays and would buy another Espiritu in a heartbeat.

Ok. Memo to self . . . . . Add Zeeder/Zack to my list of bad people, right under Erik. . . . . . . ;)
 
I've got a Huebler Rifleman but I don't have the original shaft. It was given to me when my cue was stolen many, many moons ago. I have no idea if it's worth anything. It's been collecting dust in my case for many yrs. The friend that gave it to me made me promise that I would never get rid of it. I don't know that I'll ever see that person again but a promise is a promise. ;)

I have a similar story. A room owner gave me a very old but never used Willie Hoppe many moons ago. The catch was never sell it. I agreed, still have the cue. Guess they'll have to plant me and the cue together. :)

All of my friends know that I want a baseball hat, levi's, sneakers, & a pool cue buried with me. LOL, looks like we're both going down with our cues. :cool:

Rod and Timberly,
My dad gave me a Southwest - only catch was it had to be used ( he thought cues were meant to play with, not look at). When I tried out and switched to a Predator; I gave the Southwest to a good friend who uses the hell out of it (hasn't beaten me with it yet; otherwise I would have to kill him).

How does a Gina play?? I've heard that the hit is not incredibly stiff.

All this talk about expensive custom cues for play makes me wonder which one hits the best....don't nobody tell me it's just personal preference!
 
PRICELESS,,,,,,,,,,,,,Ive got at least one of Barrys cues with me all the time. I paid $900 for it but just got two more shafts made. You can find the same basic cue for sale on the net for 3.5 or 4k. Price just keeps going up.,,,,,,,,,then theres the fancy one he built for me,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
 
right now i play with an old Joss cue. I am not sure on the make #, but i haven't seen to many that look like it. I found one online that is just classified as a 1989 Joss cue. It hits great. I paid 300 for it and it came with 2 shafts
