I just wondered of any of the pro players still use a centre jointed two piece ? they appear to have somewhat gone out of fashion watched lots of snooker on T.V. but cant say I have seen one only in a very old video of Dennis Taylor.

I think most of the Canadians did in the 80's and I noticed Cliff used one in the Legends tournament/exhibition. John Spencer won 1 of his titles with an Adam Custom and Dennis Taylor did use one for awhile but I think because of endorsements.
Even here in Canada they are a lot less common than they used to be. Hell, I even used one for awhile in my early days.Terry Davidson

For some reason i keep going back to my centre jointed cues (2 of them) even though the 1 piece and 3/4 cues ive had felt and looked more professional. For me it seems i just seem to play better with a centre jointed i guess? I have even been thinking lately if it would be possible for a cuemaker to replicate the butt end of the cue to the exact same spec and have it made with 4 splices of jet black ebony?? That would be good..

My favourite players: Walter Lindrum (AUS), Neil Robertson (AUS), Eddie Charlton (AUS), Robby Foldvari (AUS), Vinnie Calabrese (AUS), Jimmy White, Stephen Hendry, Alex Higgins, Ronnie O'Sullivan, Dominic Dale and Barry Hawkins.
I dream of a 147 (but would be happy with a 100)
