        Agreed with this, of course.

        Now that I've seen your other post re. PQJ's previous post, I also agree with your "does it really matter". Don't encourage him, whatever you do.

          I have to ask you something Keith,are you also a Robin cues fan? As I have noticed that you are always recommending him...

            I just think that Robin makes excellent cues at a very good price, and he's not one of the cuemakers that are mentioned first when people are looking for a new cue. Don't misunderstand me, I think Trev, Mike, H&O, JP et al make fantastic cues, but they're not the only guys who can, so I just like to remind people of this fact and get them to look around a bit more before making their choice.

              totally agree with you on this Keith. In fact when I started to look around for my cue I only new for JP and Peradon... Now I would like to have a cue from each cue maker just to compare them. It is a big and expensive task,but I was thinking to contact let's say 7-10 cue makers,and to order a cue with same specs from everyone... That would be a real fun

                You should talk to Chatlag, that's his wish too - he'll tell you how expensive it is! I started off wanting to do that, and I now know that there's no point in doing it at all, because when you get a good cue made to your specs by a good cuemaker, then why want another one? All you're going to do is confuse yourself! I know I did!!
                As long as you know what you want and you get it made by a good cuemaker you trust, then there's no point in buying another one by any other cuemaker - it's just a waste of time and energy. Problem is, though, that if you like cues, and love wood, then it's very hard to resist ...

                  You started a thread asking for info/advice/opinion, and I responded with my honest opinion, and what I know as facts. When I see false info being passed as facts, I feel obligated to point out. I was just trying to be helpful. Whether what I said matters to you or not is for you to decide.

                    Please don't be mad at me I was just joking. I respect your opinion. And I believe you that she is using Bill Mcdaniel cue. I just said that Robin has told me that he is making cues for her. And i said "does it really matter" in context does it really matter which cue is she using she is great whatever the cue is her hands. No hard feelings. I am sorry if I have insulted you

                      I must admit something. I was thinking that Parris ultimate and H&O black plate cues are something really really special and that I will be knocking in centuries as soon as I get one of these two Yes I really love cues and I admire to all cue makers as I can not imagine how much patience and hard work is needing just for one cue...

                        I believe you have actually made up your mind already. Please show us pictures of your Robin cook cue(s) when you have them.

                        A cue is only as good as how much you love it. So, go with your heart.

                        I never felt insulted, no hard feelings my friend.

                        Cheers.
