Hands-down, the Cheyenne pool cue by Sierra Custom Cues is
one of the most beautiful cues you will ever hold. The
custom cuemakers at Sierra have always stressed materials
and workmanship over flashiness. Here, you see a great
balance in attractive wood tones, using accent features to
bring out the beauty of the wood itself. The forearm is a
lightly cinnamon-stained birdseye maple. It is spliced with
three tall and thin ebony points, alternating with three
shorter thin points. The wraps, double-pressed and polished
Irish linen, black with white specks, are set off with
silver rings.
The butt sleeve, one of the best looking
parts of this cue, is done in two parts. The top 4/5 of it
is a piece of cinnamon-stained curly maple. The grain of
this wood is simply incredible! It is separated from the
lower 1/5 with silver and black rings. The bottom part of
the butt sleeve is natural birdseye maple. The lightness of
this wood, set between the cinnamon and the black of the
butt plate, draws your eye into the cue. Dashed rings of
maple and ebony ease the transition from the butt sleeve to
the butt plate. The stainless steel joint, with 5/16 x 14
joint pin, is bracketed by Sierra's signature dashed rings.
These three-layer rings are black on the outside (one thin,
one thick), sandwiching a thin ring layer consisting of
sixteen maple dashes alternating with sixteen ebony squares.
The maple shaft is crowned with a 13mm
fibre linen ferrule with a Le Pro tip. If you are after a
low-production custom pool cue of great quality, showcasing
the beauty of woods with an elegant design, you should
consider Cheyenne. Joint protectors are included.
