I recently rented a home in Tempe, and very fortunately, it came with an 8-foot top-quality pool table. There were four decent house cues, but I wanted to purchase a high quality cue of my own. I hadn't played much since my teen hangout was a pool hall, back in Philadelphia, more years ago than I wish to remember. But with a table in my home... I was not going to let this go to waste.
My second bit of good fortune was the discovery that I am only a 5-minute drive to G Cue billiards. So I took a run over and was helped by RJ and met Robert, the owner. RJ could not have been more professional- he clearly knows the why behind the what, answered my questions patiently, and sold me exactly what I needed. They have a great selection in all price ranges. Nice guys, too. So... professional, friendly, know their stuff, great selection, nice to do business with... I can't imagine a reason to ever go anywhere else.
