I remember getting a Jimmy White two piece from a catalogue my Mum had when I was a kid. Made my first 50 with it Sold that and got a 3/4 Peradon (9mm)...made my first ton and max with that but the ferrule kept snapping so eventually got another (Powerglide,10mm) which I made numerous ton's and couple max's with. Had a few other cues since then...mainly due to my head not being right and never got used to the cue(s) I purchased..haha. Had two JP's since (3/4 for two years, 9mm & one piece for 1.5 years, 9.5mm) and had a good few ton's and few more max's. I think my main issue I have found is that with a smaller tip, the amount of side and screw I could generate was far better than a 10mm, but the 10mm gave me much better control if that makes sense. Anyway, I am receiving my Trevor White next month so hopefully I can stop searching for the Peradon I loved and cherished. At the end of the day, if you pot balls with a brush then that's all that matters. Cheers for the post, brought great memories back.

20 years ago I played with an old Thurstons and managed a fluke 72 break with fairly regular 40's in matches. I then stopped playing for about 15 years before starting again 3 years ago. Unable to find the Thurston, I purchased a 3/4 John Parris. With a combination of not being totally happy with the cue and playing like an old fart, I have only managed a 41 break since returning to the game. I don't have a lot of confidence in a 3/4 cue. The joint always strikes me as a weak link. I am at present waiting on delivery of a 1 piece Trevor White purchased via this forum. Hopefully this will at lease boost my confidence.

Been playing snooker for about 10 months now after switching over from pool, started playing with my pool cue (8mm tip), highest break was 48 with that. Bought a cheap cue off ebay, 9.5mm tip, had it about 7 months and had a 67 with it, also had a 63 and a 61 with it. All made in practice against people, haven't made a notable break in a league match yet.
