    Only going on how they felt for me.
    One man's meat is another man's poison I suppose.

      But the feel of a cue has nothing to do with the craftsmanship , one can only make them to your specs as accurately as possible after that its pot luck . I,m referring more to the finish , attention to detail , cleanliness and quality of woods .

        I haven't actually said the craftsmanship was bad, just that they are not quite at the level shown from Mike Wooldridge cues.
        This can't be disputed if you look at cues from both makers.


        I did see two TW cues bought to be identical apart from butt design that were 1cm different length and totally different tapers.

          It is true, you don't see many MW cues up for sale. That speaks volumes of the product in itself.

            well you can't use the argument against Parris cues in general because they sell more than Trev, MW, and many other cue makers put together. So its only to be expected with more of his cues around that there will be more for sale. But on a pure comparison of Ultimates vs anyone else I would say you don't see that many Ultimate JP models for sale either, unless they are being sold on deliberately for profit of course!

              That's a fair comment.

                What on earth is this supposed to mean?, if you are going to insult ppl learn to do it properly and type something that makes sense will you for gawd sake man...

                Can you read this now fella?, do i need to type in a mixed language like yourself for you too understand...

                I'll have to work on this mixed language you speak, if i can find any literature on the subject that is. I just need to find out wtf it is you speak first though...

                    Has anyone ever tried a Reg Wright cue? I'm thinking of having one made by him,his current waiting time is 3 months.

                      Personally i dont think cues come any better than Trevs , as good as from quite a few makers but i aint seen any better .

                        Still not sure why hotpot let go of the one I'm using. It's just so so good..

                          It is special muck . Only reason i let it go was because i use badge down so the arrows need to be on the opposite side . Yours and the one i sold to Poona are awesome cues .
