McDermott Defy Hybrid Carbon Fiber Pool Cue Shafts

Jacob Michelfelder about Star S74 Pool Cue

Jul 17, 2023

This stick was my replacement cue for my old vintage mcdermott, that stick had a thinner shaft. After working in my kamui soft tip the stick is shooting like a dream perfect balance point. My issue i had with it was the shaft didn’t come finished properly but its not unplayable or something it just needed to be smoothed out around the end shaft better. Design is beautiful and wrap is solid feel to it, i overall can say this stick shoots like a high end market stick for a very good price. Shaf... Read more

Purchased my Diamond table from Heath Manning and it was honestly one of the very few times in my life that my expectations were were exceeded. Heath was truly a pleasure to work with during the entire process, he really couldn’t have been better. And the final product is absolutely PERFECT! Can’t recommend Heath Manning or Diamond Pool Tables enough. Read more

Robert Piungree about Predator BK RUSH Sport Wrap Break Cue

Sep 6, 2022

Hi Heath, I just wanted to say how impressed I am with your service. I really liked the way you called me direct and did not stop calling me, even though I hung up on you 2 times in a row thinking you were spam. Then you told me that you apologized and wanted to let me know that you oversold, but would have a shipment next Thursday and would get it out to me as soon as you could. Now I get an email at 8:40 AM my time saying the order was complete and has been shipped. I can't ask for... Read more

The Diamond professional pool table is well constructed and a beautiful addition to my recreation room.

djpstacked about Predator BK RUSH No Wrap Break Cue

Mar 29, 2022

Great break cue. I upgraded from my bk3 which I honestly had no issues with. I wanted to get the latest and greatest. Well this break cue hits hard. I feel the transfer of energy is very good and an improvement from the bk3. I dont have to put as much force into my break as I did with the bk3 and I can still spread them very well. Also I feel I have a bit more control as well. The tip is very hard but not phenolic so it gives you a bit more forgiveness if your a tad out without miscueing. I... Read more

Gerald Rogers about McDermott SL11 Pool Cue

Feb 28, 2022

I want to give you my review of the newly-received McDermott SL-11 Carbon Fiber Cue with the DEFY 12mm tip. I took it to a pool hall, having never played there, and found the new cue very lively from the get-go. It was easy putting English on the cue ball, either left or right and putting a draw back on the cue ball. What I have been told by the owner of the pool hall to keep in mind when using the carbon fiber cue as opposed to a cue with a wood shaft is to not pull back and jab at a ... Read more

Albert Speziali about X5 Forward Cue Extension

Dec 28, 2021

The X5 is perfect for taller players, like me, who need something longer than a standard 58" cue. Without the extension, I was stuck with a bridge length of 5 to 6 inches (at most)if I wanted to position my grip and forearm properly for a pendulum stroke. Now I can bridge at 10-12 inches and use a much smoother stroke when I need power. It's a huge advantage. Aimee Reid at Manning Cues helped me return the butt extension I bought without talking with Heath or her (dumb move on my part) and se... Read more

When I ordered the table I really couldn’t tell the exact color based on the pictures on Manning cues site. Once it arrived I was stunned on how nice the table was. It plays great rolls very true. From day one of ordering the experience with Manning cues was amazing. When you call you always talk to the owner of the company he went over every option for the table to make sure you order exactly what you want. I also added things to my order after the initial order with no problem. Heath also g... Read more

Jack Robinson about Diamond Paragon Pool Table

Oct 11, 2021

The 9' rosewood Paragon is absolutely stunning! Working with Heath Manning has been a real pleasure. All aspects of the table is perfect...3 piece slate is actually 1.25 inches and is as level as can be. The rails are lively with plenty of action. The simonis cloth is very reactive and although had a little skid to it at first is making the ball do what you want it to. The finish and legs on the Paragon are speechless and everyone compliments. This is my retirement gift and I'm looking forwar... Read more

I was told my 9' Professional would take 4 months but I received it in 3. The installers were professional and friendly.

The table is absolutely gorgeous and plays as good if not better than any table I have ever played and I've played on a lot of different tables.

Heath communicated very well, was not pushy at all and was very transparent about pricing, process etc. I was in process of construction for the room that would hold my diamond table and Heath was able to hold my table for approximately 6 months after production to allow time for my construction to be completed. I have already to l referred Heath to 3 friends who a... Read more

Love the Simonis, I never thought that cloth could change the way a table plays by this much.

I waited a few weeks after receiving it to review this cue and I can say that I am extremely happy. I was hesitant to try carbon fiber but found that for me it hit even better than my maple Jacoby Hybrid LD cue. Everything I researched suggested that there would be a "learning curve" when first using this shaft, but I had zero issue on shot number one. I was also pleasantly surprised with the Tiger Sniper tip and the ease of keeping the shaft clean. I ordered on late afternoon on a Thursda... Read more

I purchased a Diamond Pro-Am 9 foot pool table w/ 1 piece slate after owning a mid-level production table. A comparison would not be fair to the Diamond. It is world class in every way; from ordering, delivery & set up to the fit and finish; you will own the best pool table made. I had several friends at my house for the delivery; one friend, who is a carpenter, was impressed with the materials used to construct the table.

I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the 7' Diamond Pro Am that I received from Heath Manning. The wait time was excruciating, as the Diamond factory was shut down for a period due to the COVID mess, but even the extended wait was worth it. Heath even worked with me to divert delivery and install to a local shop when I contracted the virus. I thought many times of settling for a 'lesser' table, but am very glad I stuck it out. Quality and service speak for themselves. Read more

As advertised, Mr. Manning personally answers the phone when you call. He kept me completely informed throughout this whole COVID fiasco and made some late changes to my order at my request.

The Diamond Pro-Am table is spectacular! It is a true players table. I have owned many different brands of pool tables (Gandy, Olhausen, Presidential to name a few) but the Diamond is by far the best playing table that I have ever owned.

Once deciding to order a Diamond Pool table, i began searching and reviewing on where to purchase from. More times than not, Manning Cues kept coming up. As I asked around, I heard only good things about this company.

I recently purchased a used pool table and was in the market for an upgrade on billiard balls. I contacted Heath about a lower end set that was not Aramith and he advised me that anything in aramith line up was a better option in my original price range.I began to research and found that I could buy a set pretty much for life and decided that this investment although expensive was my best option. Upon arrival 3 days after placing order I was shocked in the difference in play and and immediate... Read more

ChrisW about Predator BK RUSH Sport Wrap Break Cue

Feb 4, 2020

I ordered this cue at 21oz and quickly found out its really not about the weight. I locked mine in at 19.02oz and haven't looked back. About 200 breaks on it and it just keeps getting better. If you can justify the cost, this is probably the baddest break cue out right now. Ran the app against a couple other cues and the BK Rush outperformed every time. IMO, worth every penny if you play.

I ordered my 7ft Diamond Pro Am from Heath Manning at Manningcues.com. Everything went well. I won’t say the whole process went perfectly because there was a longer delay than the original 10 weeks due to a large tournament around the time my table was supposed to be delivered. But, Heath addressed all my concerns promptly. The table itself is amazing. It’s exactly what I hoped and expected it would be. Read more

On another note, Heath went above and beyond in assisting me with this purchase, including going out of his way to have Balabushka reduced the shaft to 11.75mm. He did this so there's no question as to warranty. Manning Cues Customer Service is second to none. Also, Manning cues offers more options with each cue ... Read more

Life is full of disappointments. My 9' Diamond Professional pool table is, emphatically, not one of them. It's beautifully designed, beautifully built and installed, and beautiful to the eye--and it plays pretty much perfectly. I'm not sure what more one could want of a pool table. Whatever the opposite of Buyer's Remorse is, I'm experiencing it right now. Read more

Eric Clarke about Diamond Professional Pool Table

Jun 22, 2018

I had my 8 foot Diamond Professional installed yesterday and I am extremely happy with the table and the installation team. There were a couple of issues along the way with this table order which were completely on the Diamond Billiards end but Heath always took full responsibility even though these were issues at Diamond that were beyond his control. Heath went out of his way to make sure I was happy at the end of the day and even with a last minute issue (a mistake by Diamond), Heath came u... Read more

Reece Arlin about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Pool table is excellent! Heath was a complete professional from front to finish - he even advised me properly on the material of the pool table to get. He was also hands-on with the process the entire time. I would highly advise this experience to anyone. Read more

Hank Powell about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

May 5, 2018

I ordered the Diamond Pro-Am 9’ table with the tournament blue Simonis 860 cloth and couldn’t be happier with the table. It plays perfect, just like I knew it would. I’ve wanted one for many years now and decided to order from Manning’s Cues because of all the positive reviews I read online. Well, they were spot on accurate. Heath Manning handled my order personally and kept in touch with me every step of the way. Heath called me to notify me that the table was coming sooner than he had ... Read more

Kevin Fehr about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Apr 28, 2018

I recently purchased a 9’ Diamond Pro-Am table from Heath at Manning Cues. After researching the project, I was a little scared because of the significant financial investment; however, after my first call with Heath, that slight fear was laid to rest. His attention to detail and customer service was the best I’ve ever seen in any industry! The process was seamless and I was informed every step of the way. The table is the best table on the market, and by far the best table I ever played ... Read more

Kevin Fehr about Diamond Player's Chair Unit

Apr 28, 2018

Excellent quality product- very sturdy and well made. Makes a wonderful addition to a billiards room. Cue cut outs in the chair arms are padded, so you can feel safe housing your cue at your chair when not shooting. The hardware did not ship with the chairs for the basic assembly of the bench in between the chairs, but no worries- I called Heath and he got a hold of Diamond and they will send out right away. Again, customer service at the highest level! Read more

Jeremy Shavers about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Apr 26, 2018

This is the one and only place to buy a Diamond table. From the 1st initial call to the installation Heath is top notch. Everything came as promised, the table is incredible, install was quick, and it came 2 weeks early. If you want service, Heath is your guy. A+ all the year at around. 8’ Pro-Am, Cyclop balls, Bridge rack, Table cover, matching wood triangle rack. Read more

Unbeatable customer service. I purchased my Diamond Pro-Am because of Heath's numerous outstanding reviews and he certainly went over the top to ensure I was happy. From the first phone call, to answering numerous questions while in production, to calling after the set up, he was always there to ensure I was happy. Cannot be happier about the purchase and I intend to purchase all my billiard products from Manning Cues. Read more

David Burton about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Feb 6, 2018

I upgraded from a very nice looking "furniture grade" table that I thought played pretty well. The difference in the old table and the Diamond Pro-Am is like night and day. Even with the pro-cut pockets, it just seems easier to play on. There's no doubt that it banks and rolls more predictably. Ordering through Heath couldn't have been easier. It's rare to find the level of customer service that he provides. He explains exactly how the process works, and will take the time to answer ... Read more

David Burton about Diamond Professional LED Panel Table Lights

Jeff Hannans about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

My Diamond table plays "Awesome". The wait was worth it. Heath was on it, communicating every step in the process of my order. Starting with the initial order through Diamond factory build, through delivery timelines, through communication of the installers and after the final table setup/completion. As the saying goes "you get what you pay for", this statement is true for both the product (Diamond Pro-Am 8' table) and Manning Cues. Outstanding Product and Service. Read more

This table is by far one of the best tables I've ever played on. It's only surpassed by the customer service that Manning showed during the ordering process. Manning was absolutely fantastic dealing with all of my questions, and guiding me to the right purchase. He didn't try to sell me things I didn't need, and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy. He called me back after I had sent an email into his site in about 10 minutes. He also called me and responded to questions after hours... Read more

Nick about Diamond Professional LED Panel Table Lights

Jan 1, 2018

The light came in when expected, and really looks solid above my 9ft pro am. I called Manning and he talked me through various options to have the light hung, or to hang it myself. Manning went above and beyond o talk to me about installation ideas, and even offered to get on the phone with me and my friend to talk us through installing it! I got an electrician friend to come help me mount and hang the light, and it was far simpler than i had originally thought (just like Manning had said). Read more

I recently ordered a 9ft diamond pro-am table (blue label) from Heath Manning of Manning Cues and I was one of the lucky customer to have it delivered and installed a week after I fully paid. I couldn't be more happier as I was told that there's a waiting period to get one of these beasts. I had the 3 piece slate with pro-cut size pockets and it plays really great. Heath Manning even go above and beyond to send me another ball rack (Oak Rosewood, the one I got was black) as I ordered. Even a... Read more

Christian sae about Diamond Professional Pool Table

Oct 13, 2017

I've been a long time customer of heaths, but only of small products like cues or wax. This is my first diamond table ever and I can honestly say everything was great. The installation was done by diamond experienced table mechanics, and Heath was very responsive and pleasant. He always opted to call rather than email me, which I think shows a lot about his care for his customers. The charges for installation and delivery were also reasonable and better than most other dealers i spoke with. Read more

Great cue! Great customer service... more than 30 emails replying all my inquiries.The cue finish is Impressive.

I have paid more expensive cues in the past with less quality and finish, the balance price/quality in a McDermott cue is something worth it to highlight. Read more

I have been using the cue for roughly 30 hours so far. I find that ist' nothing compared to my Mcdermot cue.

I did purchase this cue for the bar box league and feel that it will most likely be better suited for that table. Read more

Heath was able to find me one quickly and it shipped the following day. Cheers Read more

I give a 5 star review on the entire process from making the choice of purchase to the installation and the follow up. Keep up the great job Manning what a professional way to run business.

jerry about Stealth STHBK01 25oz Break Cue

Dec 12, 2016

This cue is hands down a great deal. The Dooley handle and the solid feel of 25 oz is awesome when breaking. This was my first purchase from Manning and I can say I will definitely order from him again. Mr. Manning called me personally when there was an unexpected delay in my order. I have never had anyone do that and I order things all the time on the internet. Family owned by someone who takes care of his customers. From San Diego, California thank you! Read more

Clinton Ticer about Littman LED 5' x 2' Aluminum Tournament Edition Light

Sep 9, 2021

If you are looking for a table light then you can stop here and not look any further. The Littman LED is incredible and casts the perfect amount of light on the table to eliminate shadows. The low profile (about 3 inches high) makes it perfect for hanging in places without a high ceiling to still keep the light well above the table. Installation was relatively easy. The product is lightweight, my wife and I were able to hang the light by ourselves without any other help. The light has a cabl... Read more

Alan Shaw about Cuetec 6" Cue Extension with Replacement Bumper

Apr 14, 2017

I must say I love my new Cuetec Smart Extension. This new version will not only be able to screw into the back of a new weight adjustable Cue with the enclosed adapter,(it replaces the existing chrome bumper) but it also screws right into the back of the Older models that have the round bumper with a hole in it. I own both. Attached is a photo of how it works with each. This is a great, quick to attach, extension for those longer shots where extra reach is needed. Read more

Mitchell K about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Mar 13, 2017

Heath was informative, helpful, and extremely efficient. I submitted a request through the site to be contacted, and he even called me past their listed business hours! I couldn't believe I got a response so quick! Then he took the time to answer all questions and thoroughly explain the process and pricing. Not only this, but I ended up getting my table in 1/3rd of the time that he said I would! Someone cancelled so he called me to bump me up on the list. Great guy. If you want the bes... Read more

Gary LeCompte about Diamond Smart Table

Dec 21, 2016

I purchased 2 Diamond Smart tables from Manning's Cue's for my bar. Heath is a very professional guy. I could not be happier with my tables. They are great. I would not hesitate to go through Manning's Cue's again if I would need to buy some more. Matter of fact I wouldn't buy them from anyone else. Heath is great to work with and takes care of you every step of the way. Thanks Heath Read more

sergei kvartler about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Nov 7, 2016

This is the best table on the market in my opinion to have at home. The ball return is very fast and barely makes any noise. I looked around for the best price and Heath had the lowest. One downside of the process was that 1 part came broken, however it was neither Heath's or Diamond's fault but the shipping company's instead. Took about 1 week to get that part replaced, which wasn't bad at all. Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase and recommend not only this table, but the amazing... Read more

John Galik about Diamond Professional Pool Table

Sep 30, 2016

To anyone wanting to purchase a pool table: I've never in my life felt the need to put any of my opinions on the internet, but I feel I owe it to Heath Manning to take the time to write this small blurb. When I read that he would be personally involved in my purchase of a pool table from Manning Cues I was a bit skeptical. However, Heath himself answered my phone calls and emails promptly. He worked with me to get the exact table I wanted, and I truly believe Heath's prices are some of the... Read more

Nason Dumont about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Sep 30, 2016

I spoke to different people that was selling the Diamond Pro Am tables and decided to go with Manning's, due to the fact that he took the time to explain and answer all my questions and also gave some good advice. I felt very comfortable dealing with him compared to the other dealerships. Manning stayed in contact with me with updates on when the table was going to leave the factory, be delivered and set up. When the table was delivered there were some scuff marks and 1 scratch, I called Mann... Read more

Matthew Parker about Diamond Pro-Am Pool Table

Aug 31, 2016

I just recently had my Diamond Pro Am delivered that I purchased from Heath Manning of Manning Cues. With Heath I had a great experience from when I first spoke to him about a price quote to when the table was finally delivered. Heath took the time to answer all of my questions throughout the process and gave me updates on the progress of the table while it was being built. If you want to purchase a Diamond Pro Am or anything else billiards related, Heath Manning is your guy! Read more
