We at AZB just love announcing these monthly winners, especially on days like this when the prizes are so awesome. So here we go, our OB Cue winners!
Our Grand Prize winner is robusto99! Robusto wins the OB-135 “Darts” Cue and is going to be enjoying the super-sharp points and all of the following features: The OB-135 has a Birdseye Maple Forearm with 6 Cocobolo Dart Points, a Cocobolo Handle, and a Birdseye Maple Sleeve with 6 Cocobolo Dart Points re-cut into Ebony. The cue also features Straight Line Core (SLC) engineering. The SLC construction guarantees a cue that is Straighter, Stronger, more Stable and Stiffer. This means that your cue will be built straight, stay straight and hit great. The OB-135 also features a Centralized Balance System that places weight in very specific locations throughout the butt of the cue to create an evenly balanced cue with feedback that is crisp and lively. It really has to be hit to be appreciated!
Our Second-Place winner will also be receiving a magnificent cue. Donkin the 8 receives the OB-130, known as the Eight of Diamonds. This cue also utilizes the Super-Sharp Infinity Inlays and it features a Birdseye Maple Forearm with 8 scalloped Ebony Diamond Inlays, Irish Linen Wrap, a Birdseye Maple Sleeve with 8 Scalloped Ebony Diamond Inlays and the Straight Line Core construction. This cue also features the Centralized Balance System as previously described to give you that crisp and lively feedback that every cueist treasures.
Our third-fifth place winners all are fortunate to win this month as they also get a cue! Mearlin, CMD and thekaiserman all win the new OB Lift Pro Jump Cue. This cue will get you airborne! It features a 13 MM OB Jump Tip, a Patented laminated maple ferrule, a North American Maple shaft and a 3/8 X 10 wood to wood joint. It also delivers an 18” two-piece Butt, a micro 3/8 X 10 jump joint and is finished with a Midnight Blue stain.
As mentioned, everyone gets to choose the OB shaft that they like the best! The craftsmen at OB Cues have been producing Low Deflection and Ultra Low Deflection shafts that make aiming so much easier since 2006. They now offer the original OB-1, the OB-2, the OB Classic and the OB Pro. The OB-1 delivers a soft and quiet hit with a tip diameter of 12.75 mm. It has a modified pro taper and is a Low Deflection shaft. The OB-2 also delivers the soft quiet hit but with a tip diameter of 11.75 mm and a modified conical taper. This shaft is an Ultra Low Deflection model. The OB Classic gives a firm, crisp hit with a 12.75 mm tip and a modified pro taper. It is a Low Deflection shaft. Finally, the OB Pro also gives the firm and crisp hit but with a tip diameter of 11.75mm tip and a modified conical taper. The OB Pro is an Ultra Low Deflection shaft. All five winners will also receive two AZB patches and five pieces of Sky Blue Master chalk!
I will be sending PM’s to our winners today to get their email and mailing addresses. Then I will put each in touch with OB to pick their shaft and arrange shipping.
We have more cues to give away in June. This will be our Father’s Day giveaway and will be announced the last week of this month. Stay tuned for more great prizes thanks to the advertisers on AZB. Please support these folks. They are certainly holding up their end of their relationship with AZB members.
