Because that's 3 different people you mentioned there 😅

[Snooker man Stevie]

Lol so wats H&O and Obyrne ?

[jrc750]

You get Will Hunt cues
You get Robert Osborne cues
You get Hunt & Osborne cues
you also get Hunt & O'Byrne cues

I think O'Byrne bloke was some salesman type ?? but these cues are the one's that bring the money

I'm sure other members have better information

Aww a get it so O'Byrne didn't make the cues ?

Aww a get it so O'Byrne didn't make the cues ?

He was the business side of the company.

So why is his cues so sort after if he was only a business partner ?

Jimmy White possibly ......he used them originally . And this was the place to go and get cues if you were a Londoner .

Very expensive at the time as well , compared to other makes .

Like anything ......very hard to find . Hence a very high price .

Same as Hunt & Osborne , Robert was the main cue maker out of the 2 of them .

i spoke to Will when I went to Osbornes and he could never understand why people craved over Hunt & O'Bryne cues , as he said that the cues he was making with Robert were far superior .

So O'Byrne was not a cue maker then ?

[Neil Taperell]
