Wached them all too these are gr8 videos for me as im a total beginner my game has improved alot thanks Dr Cue!!!!!!!!!

[crazydude75927]

Did he mention weight, taper, shaft diameter,hti, or feal? These are major factors in choosing a cue!!! I dont think this was greatly informative. I do apreciate what doctor cue does for the begginers in our great game.

@vaginasweat123

this is true, but there is nothing wrong with choosing a cue for it's aesthetics as long it is a good quality cue that fits your needs. some people prefer a plain looking sneaky pete. others prefer a cue with gawdy paint schemes/decals/over-used inlay's (i have no problem with inlay's... just some people i know somehow think that the more inlay's their cue has... that the better shot they are)

@tofusauce hehe i see what you did there ;)

After watching Dr. Cue, I learned that its all about the shaft, the hard wood, the hard tip, and a tight rack.

Really poor and should be redone.  It should include discussion on joints, cue weights, tip diameters.

Whats the average price for a decent starting cue stick?

[bigdaddyofaz]

I got a old dufferin sneaky pete does the job love it wish I could get another plays the way I like. sucks when Im drinking though always mix it up with the house stick that I grab to break with.

[crrazyy]

agree, better then most house cues. I got a $15 cue with Guiness logos on it... ooh yeah =D LOL -- Happy saint patricks day!

I think the Dr. Cue is just covering the basic. I met Dr. Cue awesome person. If you a beginner stick to a$150 cue an under. As you progress you can move up. Shot making is of course a major part of the game so is understanding it. You can a be a good shot maker and lose to someone who is a mediocre shot maker that has a better understanding of the game. I currently play with a Joss Cue that was bought very slightly used for 150 and I am thinking about a Tiger Shaft.
