I have a very nice looking and playing Paul Dayton Bacote SP in your price range. I've had the cue for about 1 month and like it so much I've ordered a new cue from Paul. If interested PM me with an email address and I'll send pics and specs. David

As I mentioned in the main forum...check out my JOSS. It may not be a custom cue from a guy with a multi-year waiting list, but it's a GREAT shooter, and there aren't a million more like it, like some other production cues. It's retail was $525, and I'm letting it go at the bottom of your price range......I'll bump my post to put it near this one, so you can look at the pics, and check out the website it was offered from. :)
 
Excellent Choice!

I've had the opportunity to see this cue up close and personal....it is a very nice looking cue and it shoots FANTASTIC :)

I think it would be an excellent choice and I'm sure Dave will give you a good deal too ;)

Otherwise, I might end up buying this cue from Dave :eek: :p :D
 
I have several in your price range check out my Ebay store. Let me know which one you like and we can work out a great price.
 
If you want a new McDermott let me know. I have plenty in stock in your price range.
 
wow i'm a tool, post editted good lookin out gotulane lol lets keep what happened between us.

also, if u email joe before u buy anything he'll always give u an even better deal so if u see anything u like just email him. look up blow out in his store and u'll see great prices.

i found this deal to atone for my previous retardation:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=280058379633&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=018

he's selling that cue for 70 dollars less than any where else i can find. and it's well under 200 dollars for a decent cue.

of course u could always just get a dominiak with 2 shafts, or get 2 dominiaks or 1 with extra dominator shaft. many possible combos here cuz his prices are so low.

Pechauer - Shaft only?

I think the auction is just for the SHAFT! Didn't see anything about a free butt. And I am alwyas looking for free butt. But once again, I agree that Joe @ Nielson Billiards is a great guy to deal with, and has some great prices that would get you something nice in your range.

There is a guy selling a Tiger cue with X shaft and maple forearm/butt with stack wrap

hes asking for 340, but i tihnk u might still be able to knock it down a little .IMO, that is a very good cue for the money.
 
Pechauer - Blue Stained Tiger Maple

I've got a very nice older Pechauer.....it's stained blue -- Tiger Maple, $225 shipped with insurance ;)
 
Wayne Robinson

You could also have a custom made cue to your specs from my buddy Wayne Robinson. You guys that have made purchases already are gonna be stunned on how good these cues play. I mean JAM UP... Truth be told. Ill bet money with anyone that once word gets out on how these cues play the orders will be stacked up.. I've played with a lot of good cues in my 14 years of playing. Southwest, Richard Black, Gus Szamboti, JW, Jensen, Rick Howard, and the list continues. I can't compare the hit to a Gus or Black but these Wayne Robinson cues really do play JAM UP.... If you can play with the likes of those cues and turn around and be just as happy with one of these then what does that really say? JAM UP...:D :D


Thanks,
Josh Hillard

Ask Brent Hartmann (BHQ) here at AZ.

He will build you a cue just to your specs for your price range!!!

His cues hit awsome and look pretty well!!!! And he´s a nice guy, too!

You can´t go wrong with Brent.

I'm a fan of a lot of cue, I just got myself a new Pechauer.. I love it..

But to tell the truth, I think the BEST cues on the market right now (and it makes me kind of ashamed of myself)... are Lucasi's.. I wouldn't buy one - pride I guess - it's stupid I know.. but they are built solid, they look good, and the new 8 piece shafts hit (IMHO) WAY better than Predator shafts (I've owned a few).. I think Lucasi is the way to go for that price range... I know a cue maker who looks at lucasis and goes "I can't believe it... look at this.. it's beautiful, and it's $200.. how can I compete with that?"..

I'm all for buying cues from custom makers and keeping that alive (and there are a lot of cue makers who make cues WELL WORTH the price they ask).. but these new Luc's are SICK.
 
Great Deal

Check out this great dealhttp://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=57643&highlight=tiger+shaft

This cue is a great deal and it is right by your price zone. If you are looking to get a high quality cue that will out last one of those $200 dollar cues a hundred times over, This cue is a steal. The cue is a Maple Tiger cue with a X shaft and sniper tip and a leather stack wrap that retails for $589. This cue is being sold by Tanner Pruess, he is a great guy with an even better reputation. He is looking to sell it for arround $340. It is a little outside your price range but I think you will find that if you can get a great deal like this you take it rather than trading up cues for 5 years and spending about 800 to 1,000 to get a cue of the same quality.

Excelent cue for a Great Price!!

PM him for pictures if you are interested and tell him you are a friend of Michael Kendall's and he will take care of you.
