    Decent quality cues for the money, but they don't excite me tbh. I've played shots with friends And went to Gary Taylor's shop once and tried several different ones and although the quality is ok, I didn't want to buy one. Again the bigger Thai brands (maximus, Ton praram, phoenix, Tom Classic, and Master cue) seem to have really designed cues that suit the modern game and balls. Many have a more forward weighted cue where the balance of weight is well distributed down the cue, usually you will be able to see this in a spec where it says the balance point is around 18.5 inch from the butt. This really seems to give a more solid hit that I didn't find with TM cues, but again, although I think this style is more popular these days it's not everyone's cuppa tea.

                  He is a top bloke, I've bought a mini butt and extra Tom tips from him, good service. I've dealt with him via WhatsApp after contacting him via eBay initially. As said dlcustoms is his eBay shop. If you contact him mention the forum and he pop up on here too.
