If those are genuinely his specs then they are the exact ones I have, and I can assure you I can't play like Ronnie :snooker:

Try holding it the right way round lol

I appreciate your comments. My original question was just simply curiosity. Still not answered though. Does anyone know what cue Ronnie was playing with in the Judd final Pct in Antwerp. It didn't look like a Paris and was a broad grain ash. Nice cue. Chers pal.

Already answered bud...

It was the same cue as mentioned up there quoted from parris and others ^^^^^

I am surprised in this modern day that some one has not got this info, today's sport is all about stat's I think that the BBC could make this a feature of the next world championship.

Parris has the specs of every players cue who have let him take them, he then builds a replica to the exact specs of the cue they have in the hope that one day the one they have somehow fooks up so he can sell/give them one so that you all then think his cues are the dogs and then probably go and pay over the odds for....

Its interesting to know what the elite of the game are playing with. I would love some follow up threads on the greats past and present cue specs.

I've wanted to know what specs he plays with as well. Purely out of interest. Thanks.

i want to know all the pros specs because i am getting a parris cue and it would be great to know what the pros play with so it can help me make my mind up with my dimensions and yes i know i will not be able to play like them lol. but my theory is that they would generally use the same dimensions for a reason?

Well i think they all play with different specs to each other so how is that going to make your mind up ??
Best thing to do is have a go with lots of cues and find out what suits YOU best

top advice mate, read somewhere jimmy whites advice about cues, having the same spec as someone is likened to using someone else Dentures to eat with. they wont fit properly and you wont be able to use them.

i see what your saying but im really just wondering about the average tip size they use obviously im not going to get the same length lol i will get right length for me and my old cue was 19 oz so will go with that i just think it would be nice to know what the pros use

I can't seem to be able to start a new thread. Is anyone else having this problem. My new thread was has anyone in the past has a problem with poor cueing and snatching. I seem to snatch most shots and Iam fining my timing needs help and I just can't build a back pause into my action. Thanks.

are you sure its a timing issue and its not your action? whats causing you problems in adding the pause?

[paulstreetboy]

It is the action which includes the lack of
Pause. The front pause is easy but. Can't seem to bring the cue back to my handas you are supposed to and jab at the ball with a quick one each time. I am working on it but can't get the smooth action needed to score heavily.help.
