Well you have gone up ten fold in my rankings - you sound like me addicted to trying out new cues - and I totally agree - the one thing that I cant understand is someone who buys cues just to collect though - it would kill me to have Henry's cue or Ronnie's Ultimate and have it laying around collecting dust not being used.

Too many players chasing the cue that they already have.

I did the same with Ronnies cue, I bought it for my friend in Singapore and again after enjoying the cue for a few weeks I sent it directly to Singapore, it was actually delivered by my neighbour who was working in Singapore at the time. Again I sold it for the exact price that I paid for it........I am just addicted to trying out nice cues. I always play with the cues, can't see the point of owning them without using them. I have also bought cues from quite a few top 32 pros. At the moment I am playing better snooker than I have for years with an old cue that cost me £70!!Terry Davidson

Don't blame him
If I remember right - correct me if I'm wrong - Parris made 4 or 5 cues for Hendry and the collector got one of them.Last edited by bolton-cueman; 14 February 2015, 05:12 PM.#jeSuisMasterBlasterBarryWhite2v1977Luclex(andHisF ictiousTwin)BigSplash!
