Like a wolf in sheep's clothing or a machine gun in a violin case. The Hit and Run sneaky Pete by Mystick Cues looks like an innocent bar cue. The innocence ends there.

Since its advent, Sneaky Pete has been the stealth bomber of billiards, the cue of choice for hustlers trying to masquerade as socially acceptable people while scooping out their pockets. No longer just for hustlers, the appeal of this institutionalized standard is today at an all time high.

Designer cues now cost what we used to pay for a pool table making damage repair an expensive pain in the neck and theft a constant threat. New airline security now makes it almost impossible to have your cue as a traveling companion. Instead of your cue watching you sip Martinis in the passenger cabin, your designer classic now travels in baggage playing shake, rattle, and roll wiht packages weighing up to 60 kilos in a holding cell that goes from +90 to -50 degrees in minutes.

If that's not enough, should your cue arrive in one piece it must then run the gauntlet of baggage handlers who can smell a cue case clear across the tarmac. Some of them just waiting to play finder keeper - looser weeper.

With all the playing qualities of the finest custom cue, and a lot more than some, Mystick Cues "Hit and Run" is the answer for any player who needs to leave his custom cue home while he and his A-game go out on the road. Hit and Run cues are 60" long, parabolic tapered shafts and 3/8-10 pins with wood-to-wood joints. Handles are compound tapered allowing maximum hit and thin grips. Weight bolts are never used. Weight and balance are never compromised.

The Hit and Run sneaky Pete is available with Bacote, Rosewood, Purple Heart, or Cocobolo handles. Use one when you want to hit them with your 'A' game, but don't want them to see it coming.

Get past all the marketing hype: If you can’t see the difference and you can’t feel the difference, then there is no difference.
