马奎尔也换了,以前他用ash,现在好像改枫木了 莫非的球杆历史好像很久了,快80年了,http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/5-3-2005-69461.asp Hinde, a retired cue maker, was visited by Murphy two weeks before the Embassy tournament in Sheffield and fitted a new tip on his cue. The cue itself also came from Hinde.
"It's about 80 years old," he says. "It's a Tom Newman cue. He was a famous billiards champion. I've got a collection of cues and I chose this one to give to Shaun when he was about 14. It was too small, so I had to lengthen it, build extensions and also work on the weight and balance.
"But, essentially, it's the same cue and it cost 17s 6d in the 1920s. It lets you feel every shot through your arm and, as every pro will tell you, the cue should feel like an extension of your arm." |
