I got it...subtle but nonetheless understood...I will try to refrain from posting more ramblings and pleas for help in the future.
I was anticipating that at some point other readers might find my persistency irksome or annoying....I won't even beg in this posting for help.

Your posting message came thru loud and clear. If you and the other readers don't mind, I do not want to abandon this search on the forum for this cue and I'll will just refresh it from time to time with a bump so it can stay pretty current. Thank you for setting me straight.....Matt

Hell I thought this was kind of fun myself. Hope you find what you're looking for and I hope you will share pictures of it when you strike it rich....Good Luck sir.
 
Lets hold your bumps to one a day and tone down your rhetoric.

Making even your veiled threats is uncalled for and are more than enough to find yourself in timeout.

Clear?
 
this is mine tim

It Really looks Like It's a Great Cue

The photos don't due justice to the cue's veneers which can't be fully appreciated in these snapshots. The finish looks oustanding andyou certainly have more than an ample supply of cue shafts. You're in great shape to take it on a road trip....Nice cue.....Matt
 
Checking In

PMs are dropping off ...doesn't look too good for the search....no private message the past two days....I was instructed to curtail my written pleas and rhetoric, which some readers apparently complained about but it was at least producing some leads. But it's only right that I must comply with established forum rules like everyone else.

Soooooooo.....maybe money talks better than my rhetoric did....we'll wait and see.... Bounty offer is raised to $100 for any lead on a original Tim Scruggs Bushka Tribute cue that results in my purchase of the cue.....Matt
 
This one is a Beauty

During our prior PM exchanges about your cue, I previously told you what a great looking James White custom cue you have and just to go public...since my forum postings have become pretty widely read and perhaps deservingly criticized...this one is a beauty.

James Whits is a revered cue maker and your cue has classic Bushka Tribute design which some forum readers have a mistaken understanding about. The difference with another White 4 point muti-veneer pronged cue are subtle but nonetheless still very significant and your cue illustrates why. It's really well done.

Best of luck with your listing and it's a beautiful looking cue....Matt
 
Thanks To Everyone For Their Efforts

Thanks To All For Their Help With This "On-Going Search"....Maybe This Week? BUMP IT.............
 
OH BLAH DEE OH BLAH DA....The search goes on.....

Bump It To The Top.......so far nothing....even the lead I had has seemed to disappear.
 
Thank You Tatoo

Earlier this morning I noticed that Tatoo posted commnets on a new listing for a Scruggs cue and mentioned to the seller that there was someone on the forum looking for a Scruggs Bushka Tribute cue. I never expect that any forum reader would have any reason to recall my identity, although I've given a few readers cause to do so because of my behavior and rhettoric which was borderline acceptable.

But it was a great feeling to actually see a fellow AZer recalled my postings and pass along to a cue seller there was someone looking for a Scruggs Bushka Tribute cue. It was like watching the forum in slow motion action and I wa able to see how little things can come together and lead to bigger things.....other forum readers have also tried to assist me with this search such as Nick Serdula, Hitman, JMurphy, nasc, calibration, fast n' loose, Toomnyq, and several others whose names do not immediately come to mind but there's been lots.

My deepest appreciation is extended to everyone for their kindness and interest in trying to help.

Thanks to all who tried to help.....and I want to apologize to any who've tried to help me only to have me decline the cue because it isn't a Bushka Tribute cue. Surpisingly, some folks have seemingly gotten annoyed with me and tried convincing me the cue in question is really a Bushka Tribute cue when it isn't. The Bushka Tribute cue design by Scruggs, and most other reknown cue makers, all pretty much emulate each other almost exactly. Sometimes a cue maker might deviate with some additional rings or dots but pretty much all of the cues resemble each other very closely.

Now I'm not here to criticize others' cues and in retrospect I now realize some of my comments probably incorrectly inferred that to some readers. But please don't misjudge, or criticize me, because I know what I'm looking for and I have a pretty good idea what the cue should cost. I've already encountered 2 Scruggs Bushka Tribute cues and they have a distinct look all their own. For those who are unfamiliar, check out the website www.ilovecues.com and see firsthand some of the best Bushka Tribute design by Scruggs....then go back and compare the design with these other cues....the designs are not the same but sometimes they can be close....what's the saying...close only really counts when it comes to horseshoes & hand grenades. I don't want close...if I did, I wouldn't still be posting messages on he forum asking for help.

There will be countless numbers of cues by Scruggs and others that admittedly are "Bushka" designs but right now I'm not willing to settle and there's a dozen Scruggs cues right now that have Bushka Designs but none are legitimately a Bushka Tribute cue. Someone might own a souped up, gorgeous old mustang with air dam & scoops but that doesn't make is a real Shelby Cobra Mustang....the car is still a nice Ford but it just isn't a Shelby.

So thanks for all your help to everyone but please don't consider me as being unreasonable or not knowing what I'm talking about. If you don't want to help, fine....but don't try convincing me that the cue in question is something it isn't. I just want to find an original Tim Scruggs Bushka Tribute cue, When I give up my search, I'll settle for one of these other cues that others mistakenly have considered to be a genuine Bushka Tribute cue. But until then, I am going to continue searching for the real thing....NUF SED!
