I use a Riley Burwat, not one of the recent ones, but from the 1980's.
Anyone know anything about them? Seems to be hand spliced & well made.

Both are great! (Tried over 50 cues)

Butt is made of Brazilian rosewood, spliced with one front face of snakewood over a thick maple burr veneer.

Balance @ 17" from butt
Tip : 9.7mm with Moori M tip

Had a high break of 35pt on my 2nd frame of the game.

How would you compare Aurora to other top end cues mate

I would say that pooljunkie's workmanship is indeed top notch, the shaft selection is also excellent. But there is something that can be better is the usage of lacquer on the front splice to make the splices more outstanding.

In terms of playability, the cue is well balanced even thou it is on a lighter side of 17.60z. Will highly recommend the cue to those who enjoy cues the likes of Deroo etc.

I use an Aurora 1-piece with specs of:

17.3oz (pqj - I took off the lead tape)
57"
9.6mm brass ferrule with pro granite tip
29mm butt diameter
ash shaft (very good) with ebony butt with maple and other inlays.

I have been using this cue (sometimes with adjusted weight) for the past 4 months and am very happy with the cue and poolqjunkies workmanship.

I would highly recommend Aurora cues to anyone looking for a very good cue at a very reasonable price as this 1-piece is the best cue I have ever owned and I have owned at least 100 cues over the years, maybe 200 (never counted).

High break so far in practice is 132 and in match play 89. (Match centuries are eluding me at the moment)
