The McDermott Competitor Series Velocity Pool Cue is a lovely cue designed for serious amateurs. This high-quality piece is constructed entirely of hand-selected North American Hard Rock maple. The forearm and shaft are coated in McDermott's imported European organic-pigment stain, which provides wonderful uniform saturation of the wood and consistent color. Maple index inlays accent the areas surrounding the butt and joint of the cue for added aesthetic appeal.
This cue features the exclusive McDermott Impact Control Ring, made from a polymer matrix composite developed by NASA.

With decades of cue-building experience, Wisconsin-based McDermott puts craftsmanship first. Over 150 separate operations go into the construction of each McDermott cue. All shafts are made from the finest kiln-dried, hand-selected North American Hard Rock maple, and turned 11 times. All forearms and butts are hand-crafted from the most unusual and high quality woods from around the world. The wood is aged for up to two years and is machined three separate times to ensure straightness.
Highly developed skills, exclusive finishes, and the latest technology all go in to the creation of a McDermott cue. Play with the best.
