Robert Osborne Cues

[thai_son22]

Does he not buy his cues in from Thailand still. I know he did going back about 3 years ago. I've been down there many times and looked through many many cues. I'm of the opinion that cues made by some of the Thai makers are as good as anything ever made.

Not sure but he did address it that he wouldn't need his workshop if that was the case.

There will always be speculation to be honest.

I was there not long before you, and got this.

I love Robert, he's a good laugh. His cues are top notch. Played with all of them, and liked this one, so decided to buy it, just to see how the other half live.

Cue was £500. I can't remember exactly what both extensions were, but i think combined they were £60.

He makes them in batches and then sends to China, so if you wanted to try a few out keep checking in with him to see when he's made a few.

Yes it's not bad. There were better looking cue's there, but this one and actually a couple others felt pretty good to me, so eventually settled on this one. I've had my Parris for 25-26 years, and come from the Hunt & O'byrne era. Every time i played with those though, i never could get on with them. Always felt like playing with a rod of iron. Obviously that would simply be a coincidence with those cues, but as i've got older and have a little more time to play again, thought what the hell....................... lets see if i'm missing anything, so went to see what Robert had.

Thanks for that hope it plays well for you

Could be down to the joint which is hefty to say the least. I'm not 100% sure if the cues he makes now use exactly the same joint as back then or a slightly slimmed down version of it.
