Brunswick Master Stroke Cue

Brunswick's Master Stroke Cue

More often than not, the first impression that others receive about you as a pool player has nothing to do with your game. Long before they ever see you break a rack, they've already judged your gear. Intimidation starts in the parking lot. Pulling the right equipment out of your case is essential to getting an early psychological edge, and other than being named after a city, nothing says "hustler" like a personal cue. When it comes to billiards equipment, nobody does it better than Brunswick. Just walk into any pool hall or game room and see whose name is on the table. After decades of setting the standards in product quality and design, Brunswick intends to carry the tradition forward with their Master Stroke pool cue.

Constructed from hard rock maple with cocobolo points on the forearm and inlayed on the butt sleeve, the Master Stroke is not just eye candy. Milled to perfection and flawlessly balanced, the feel and responsiveness of the Master Stroke is as close as you can get to actually pushing the cue ball with your fingertips. Every component from the black Herculite butt plate to the 13mm Triangle brand tip is designed to give the player the ultimate in smooth, controlled contact. The combination of the custom molded rubber bumper and Aegis linen ferrule ensures that the transfer of power goes where it should: into the ball, not throbbing in your elbow and wrist.

Also worth mentioning is the distinctive look of the Master Stroke. With a light maple shaft with brass inserts and a classic dark handle with white-specked black Irish linen wrap, this cue is definitely easy on the eyes. And the UV cured, polyurethane finish guarantees that the Master Stroke will be around for your grandkids to enjoy.

Bottom line is that the Master Stroke from Brunswick Billiards is a smart buy for any pool player at any level of play. Rookies will love the forgiveness, ringers will love the power and control. Available in 58-inch length and 18-21oz weights, the Master Stroke runs about two hundred dollars and change and can be bought at one of the dealers listed at BrunswickBilliards.com.
