Equipment Info:
1. I use a Lucasi Hybrid cue, Lucasi Hybrid BB2 Break Cue, and a Lucasi Hybrid
Air Hog jump cue. A “LePro” tip is my choice of leather. I have heard a lot of
good things about Kamui tips, but my style of play is fit for what I already
use. I use these products because they
are wonderful and they help me perform at my best level possible. Thanks a lot
to Cue & Case Sales, Wes and Jamie Bond, and all who are involved in
production of Lucasi products, your awesome.
2. My Shooting cue is 18.5 ounces; breaking cue is slightly lighter at 18 ounces.
3. I also have multiple gadgets in the billiard case. The note a few, I travel with a Cue Shark tip tool (cueshark.com), a Wild Eyes Creations cue stick holder (wildeyescreations.com), the London Bridge, and a Cue Extension from (JWHager.com).
