If you are a beginner and aer looking for a good cue - ABSOLUTELY IGNORE THIS VIDEO. Ask a local vendor or take a look at reviews of cues from Pechauer, Mezz, Cuetec, Lucasi

Whoever made this list has zero clue on cues.😂 1 out of the 5 are considered *good, and that's the P3. The other 4 are trash. I've been playing competitively for almost 30yrs, and I've played with just about every single quality built cue and a few not so great one's, and quality wins every time. Currently I play with a custom Joss/pechauer rouge 12.4 carbon shaft. But trust me when I say.., this top-5 list is a joke.

you ever heard of a Tim Monk cue? wonder if its any good. also, what makes the custom better? asking for real information. I'm torn between custom and something like a meucci or predator
@DrClawizdead Жыл бұрын
@curtisnstacey What makes them better is the materials used and the quality of craftsmanship versus mass production. I have never heard of that maker. Predator. School and J. Flowers are probably the best outside of custom.

Longoni, Cuetec, Meucci, and Lucasi completely suck. If you want a production cue to be seriously competitive you would need to look no further than Pechauer, Schon, or Mezz. And not necessarily in that order. More like M,S,P. A fourth would be Predator. 5th would be Jacoby. 6th would be Joss. Notice I said production cue, not custom cue.

IF YOU ARE A BEGINER and you found this video because you are looking for your first cue, here you have some tips : The Fury awp is good for beginers, the other 4 are pure trash and the low cost carbon fiber shafts are not even playable due to their exagerated deflection. Trust me, I had one. You dont have good carbon shafts under 400€, it’s the reality… So for a beginer is better to chose a nice wood like the fury, mcdermott, buffalo, viking, etc. Then when you become more “serious” in the game you can chose a lot of good material like Lucasi, J Flowers or Poison (great deals) or Predator, Longoni, Mezz, Cuetec if you want to put the price. I don’t understand why people make videos like this if they don’t know nothing about pool cues…
