What cue and where from?

[pdwhelan]

I might just go to all of them over the next few months and see what cue feels right, my budget should be higher aswell wich will be good.. (but the missus isn't to know) lol

i used to use my snooker cue at pool, changed to an 8.2 mm tip now much improved. dont have to cue at edges of the ball and offers you the ability to put mass side on if you ever need it (which obviously aint often but can be useful for some position shots in tight spaces.)

what mm tip is ur current cue? if anyone in your pool team has a small tip ask them to borrow it for a week. im certain you will want a smaller tip then 9.5 if you play pool more then snooker =]

My current tip size is 8.5mm, if I can get a decent cue along with a 2nd shaft I will get a shaft with a 8.5mm tip for pool and 9.5mm for snooker but.

I do have a cue craft snooker cue that I picked up for about a fiver and I think it was brand new.. Rileys were selling loads of gear and the customer got to pick the price (£5 min). It is a good cue with a 10mm tip but I don't like the joint in the middle nor do I like it on my Peradon cue for that matter. The stubble on my chin sometimes snags lol

Kev doesn't have a table and doesn't often have made up cues.
Craftsman will change a lot wants in from week to week but like Mr O said they might not have a lot in to suit you. Might be worth ringing first. They do sometimes have really interesting second hand cues in. And they do trade in too.
For your budget and if you want to try them fisrt it's the only option I know apart from maybe Greenbaize. Now that is a drive.
I was in Whitby and thought how long could it take to nip up to Stockton to Greenbaize. The answer was a bloody long time.
Then to top it off Stu was going on holiday and was out. So always ring first

you want to forget going through Preston and come off the motoway at Kirkham... past the grammer school, then the open prison and you're there... 30 mins from Wigan / Bolton

If you could get down to greenbaize then i would recommend doing so , i have one of their cues and they are very nice indeed .

Did you take the B1257 road ? (Helmsley to Stokesley) - one of the best biking roads i know of & even if you went the direct route over the moors to Guisborough thats still an awesome road on a bike

Can't remember it was a few years ago now. Might have been 4 years or more; it was before I got my Trevor White and I've had that over three years definitely.

It was I nice run now you mention it. I think I went a different way back and followed the coast as much as I could.
