Knowing little about pool much less the art (pardon the pun) of the cue
the wood is exquisite.
In total that cue is magnificent. I hope it brings Marc joy every time he lines up a shot.
My pal Marc received his Denali cue yesterday . . .
. . . and it's very, very special. The handle is made with a Mexican solid ziricote forearm and butt, while the grip is made from a 150 year-old olive tree. "Why," you ask, "is it so special?" Well, the ziricote timbers were given to the cue-maker by none...

Chances are the ziricote Bob received from Sam . . .

WOW!!
For it's $73,00.00 cost maybe this is the cue used by the "Great One" in the movie The Hustler
Well, all I can say is that I've played with both vintage Tad and Adam cues . . .
. . . and neither were even remotely in the same ballpark as Bob's. ...
