Great Cue. I already have about 40 hours of use with it and I see the change in my game. I know a cue won't necessarily change your game entirely unless you know how to adjust to it. I can tell, especially when I use it versus others that I allow to use it.

Including the case with the cue is awesome. I can't think of anyone else that was selling it that way. Thank you Billiard.City.

Plus, the cue is sharp looking and I get a lot of compliments on it

Hi Eric, we're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the McDermott Star S17! It's great to know it’s making a positive impact on your game and that you love the case and the look of the cue. Thanks for sharing your experience and for choosing Billiard City!

Product was in stock when all other companies wouldn’t have it for months from the supplier!

And even that was questionable!

Thank you very much for your review, Alecia! We truly appreciate your order and are very glad we were able to provide the shaft when it was difficult to find elsewhere. Thank you again for choosing Billiard City, and we hope to see you again in the future.

Slight wobble at the joint, but for a $22 shaft? Likely best you can expect. My birthday is coming up and i might surprise my wife by getting s new cue from her. She loves surprises.

Thank you very much for your review, Bill. We truly appreciate your order and your honest feedback.

We are sorry to hear that you noticed a slight wobble at the joint. That is not the experience we want our customers to have, and we would be happy to review this with you and help with a replacement or return if needed.

Thank you again for your feedback and for giving us the opportunity to make things right. We also hope you have a wonderful birthday.

This was exactly what I was missing from my bag. I was able to clean up the tips on my cues with ease and I noticed a big difference in my play.
