What is the best cue you've ever shot for $120 ?? This includes those no name ebay sticks, and anything else readily available to you. I could care less about looks, Im looking for a good playing cue.

as are the entry level mcdermotts. i think the alpha series is $119. they play well.
Yes, the McDermott Alphas deserve mention in that group.
predator........was about 175
A used Meucci Sneaky Pete. You can typically find them for around $100 from someone moving up. For a lot of people this is the first "Good Playing" cue they buy. In my area it seems to be an up-and-comer and hustler favorite. And a new one is @$200 (Out of your given price range but maybe worth saving for.)

I bought a Josey sneaky pete with a 314 shaft from a friend of mine for about $120 a few years back.
direct from the company...$150 for the shaft...$25 for the butt...3 of them total under 200 a piece......sneaky petesBrianK74 said:Where the heck did you get a Predator for $175?.
I'll take 10!.

I think you are just too young, that's all
So speaking of sneakys, I have a Dufferin Phantom that I take out to bars on occassion (mostly the occassion is my brother-in-law is in town
). Now the stupid bar that we play at has these black fibre-glass cues. My sneaky pete sticks out like a sore thumb 
I'll vote for the low end McDermott. I have an older Brunswick (by McDermott) that would retail in the $120 range, it's a good cue.

I don't know what the lowest end Lucasi is now, but a few years ago you could pick one up for that. Damn Lucasi's are a really decent cue.

Scruggs sneaky's in the 90's where I lived sold for 150 new, and weren't regarded as anything overly special. We used them for break cues mostly. Up until about 4 years ago you could still get all you wanted for 150 used, and 200 new in a plain one. I brought one of the last ones to leave the scruggs shop for 200 + 10 bucks shipping. I didn't know until after I sold it they had stopped making them, or I'd still have it. My plan at the time was to just buy another new one.
Man i have seen a lot of cues named but i have to say the cheapest cue for 100 bucks i pick up last year in Sc .the cue was a Omega cue the japan made cue ..Not bad hitting cues . for the money .Danny 314 said:

Under $120 is Dufferin, Action, Cuetec, Players, Schmelke, GW.
I know a few people who play with Dufferins. I like Players.
