Hey all, I was just wondering where Huebler cues rank nationally as far as production cues go. Here in Missouri they are reasonably popular but where do you guys think they fit in compared to Schon, Joss, McD, et al?
 
Huebler

I believe they make some of the best full spliced cues on the market. I have one from their custom shop. Very nice work indeed. I would definately rank them up there with Joss. I bought this one for my wife. It is one of four cues I have purchased for her.

I really like the veneers on this one. Nice and clean!

I shoot with a Huebler that I bought used over 20 years ago.

I can't say I have ever shot with a cue that felt any better or is better constructed, regardless of cost.

Of all the production cues, I have to say Huebler is one of my favorite. Solid build and it shot really well. I sold mine (my very first cue) to a friend and he enjoys it.
 
In my opinion, Huebler makes a very very nice cue. They are very soft hitting, the ones I have shot with anyway. Not as stiff as a Schon, but you can really baby a ball with one. The one's I have owned were lightweight as well. Really pretty cues also...usually simpler designs...but nice balance.

I have always felt the Huebler production cues were good cues, and their custom shop cues are great cues. I think of Huebler as more of a production custom shop like Schon than I think of like a McDermott production shop.

I have always believed Paul Huebler has been underrated as a custom maker. Besides the cue maker skills, he is very patient. He probably sorts through 200 blanks to get a custom shop shaft, which are among the best shafts I've ever owned. I have a custom shop US Open, an Ivory Twist, an Ivory Chess, and several of their very early cues. Considering how much of the work is done by hand, no rounded edges, these cues are amazing.

The Huebler quality was best, in my opinion, in the 1980's and 1990's with their full splice cues. The later cues do not excite me. Huebler luggage cases are really nice too.

I do not think the company will continue once Paul retires.

i hate 'em.

the club i used to go to had them for sale, so i play with a lot of them,,,the managers loved them and said balukas played and loved hers.

never liked the balance, hated the grip(too coarse too thin), designs are atrocious. i've only played with schon, mcdermott, meucci, helmstetters, and fury, and prefer them all to huebler. the only cues of note that i haven't played with are mali's and cuetec and some of the other latest incantations.

so i'd rate hueblers last of the production cues i've played with.

Sorry boss, my wife won't let that one go. I did talk to Huebler and they will make another one (without ivory) for about $800. That's the truth.
