Viking Pool Cues - F106 - Viking DeCues Dragon Pool Cue Stick
Unleash your pool prowess with the Viking F106 cue. The symbolism between the power of mythical dragons and the power behind Viking products is not lost on this instrument. A UV polyurethane coating protects the black stained Birdseye Maple and ferocious dragon overlays on the forearm and sleeve, and a black Irish linen wrap with green specks allows you to maintain control of every shot. The proprietary ferrule and pro taper shaft give great cue ball control and shot accuracy, encouraging you to push the boundaries of your game. This is a structurally sound, straight cue that offers a soft to medium hit due to the plastic joint and collar. In business since 1965, Viking is the oldest manufacture of cue sticks made in the USA. With the exception of the tips, weight bolts and bumpers, Viking manufactures all of the materials used to make their cues. Pro players including Dawn Hopkins, Denny Coulter and Larry Nevel play with Viking cues.Weight Changes: Viking cues have a changeable weight system.
