I have 40-50 bucks to spend on a super cheap pool cue for a buddy who is just starting to get into pool. PM me if you guys have anything interesting to offer. Please send pictures too. Thanks!
I'd go with a McDermott Lucky set. They're made pretty decent, look nice, and have a 3/8 x 10 so he can swap the shaft to something a little more notable if he wants to down the line.
Gives em' a case and some chalk, shaper, etc to get started too.
That's the 52$ one. There are 72 and 92$ ones also but this isnthe cheapest to get started. Personally I like the look of tje 72$ better but that's all up to you lol. Good luck!
