About 7 years ago, i was in the market to get a cue, and since trying to understand every part of efrens game, i knoticed in alot of photos, of how far the cue came up to his heigth. So i figureded it to myself, and wanted a 62" cue. So i had Lenord Bludworth make me 1. Also i had Joe Porper make a 1 cue, 2 shaft case, as the cue came with 2 shafts. Took forever to get it, it was the prestige edition susposidlly. I was very diasapointed when i got it, ans the tips were junk, so i spent $50 getting a new layered tip on each shaft. Another reason i was disappointed, which i can care less about cosmedics, but for what i paid for it, you can tell a little on the butt collar where it was viced. i talked to Lenard at least 6 times on the phone, and he let me know since it was so long, that both of the shafts had a tiny wobble in them, which really didnt bother me. On top of that, he said he is going to make and send me 2 more shafts, and never did. No blood dot on it.

  1. The forums at easypooltutor.com and azbilliards.com both have sections where you can sell your cue. You should get a much more fair price from the people that frequent those sites that this one.


  2. Doesn't sound at all like him but.

    For height  Im bout 6.1  and the only thing i notice is my grip is farther back than most people I dont think a longer stick would help me Thats just my habits I cant shoot holding the wrap portion of the stick

    If it is better for you go for it

    OK Bone to sell it I would think you should get a decent offer. If Kevin answers he can answer better I think he has some Bludworth cues

    $150 ha ha

    Bone Im sorry you prob told me-Are you in Tx.?

  3. In my opinion Donald made it, probably while set up at a little pool room just off the square in Quitman Tx. The value is not tremendous to collectors but if you find a 6' 10" player they may love it ...who knows.

    That said does the case really fit this looong cue?

    Will Leonard certify as Bludworth?

    Will Leonard honor promise of extra shafts?

    You can get the 100 here but maybe someone wants it more, hope so.

    Luck

    Kevin
