I have been an avid pool player for about 43 years and played McDermott cues all through the '90s with good results. Played other cue for past 20 years, again with great results, but decided I wanted some fresh hardware and chose the G series 229 McDermott cue. A great cue with great looks. Jury is still out on performance, mostly due to my lack of recent play and my getting used to the feel of the cue. The G-Core shaft and Navigator Black Pigskin tip definitely has a different feel but I am sure that once I get accustomed to it, I will love this cue. Overall, I would have to say that the G 229 is a great cue for the price if you are looking to step up your game.
I purchased this cue as a Christmas gift for my father, he’s an avid pool player and has been wanting a McDermott cue. This is his first McDermott cue and after he played with this particular cue he said it was truly amazing.
Also, Jason at Billiards.com was great at handling my questions and phone order. Thankful they had the cue in stock and surprisingly were able to ship the cue out the same day as the order was placed. Overall, I was very happy with Billiards.com.
. For my skill level it handles great. Has helped improve my game, making shots much greater, thus improving my enjoyment playing. Wood finish, color is super if you like beautiful
wood. Seem very well made so far. Would order it again !!!
Great Cue! Looks really nice and very smooth and it gives good cue ball actions. Thanks to Billiards.com for a fast delivery and a free case to go with it.
