Get a Grip

The G502 is a nice quality cue. The Lizard Italian leather wrap is real grippy. Just what I wanted. The G-CORE shaft with the Tiger Everest tip is a amazing combo. Durable contact and for me it’s the superior you can get for what the cost of the shaft is. I also use a Lucasi Hybrid shaft which is about 60 dollars more but the G-Core performs just as well. I’m quite pleased with this cue. If I buy another cue I’m gonna go with McDermott again.

G502

I purchased this cue stick a little over a year ago and paired it with a kamui clear black soft tip and I absolutely love this stick. I have played with much more expensive cues and the g502 feels just as good if not better than most.

McDermott Pool cue G502

From my perspective, i purchased a McDermott carbon fiber shaft for an existing cue butt and decided I wanted to change the butt a few weeks later. I called several places but no one sold butts separately. Finally, I called PoolDawg who had no trouble selling me a butt. I picked the G502 from a vast selection. The butt is gorgeous, well built and fits my carbon fiber shaft perfectly.

Weight & Balance

This cue is offered in WBMCD, Yes. A lighter cue is easier to accelerate for a whippy, spin-friendly stroke; a heavier cue plants more solidly and drives the cue ball with less effort. Most players settle between 19 and 20 ounces.

Questions about this cue

What joint does the McDermott G502 Cue use?

It uses a 3/8X10 joint. That means any 3/8X10 shaft will thread straight onto this butt, so you can add a spare or upgrade later without changing cues. If you are matching a shaft you already own, check its pin against 3/8X10 before ordering — joints are not cross-compatible.

What shaft diameter is the McDermott G502 Cue?

This cue ships with a 13.00mm shaft. Thinner shafts put more spin on the cue ball and feel crisper through the stroke; larger diameters feel fuller and are more forgiving on off-centre hits. Neither is better — it comes down to how you like the cue to hit.

Is this a carbon fiber or wood shaft cue?

The McDermott G502 Cue comes with a Classic Wood shaft. Carbon fiber will not warp, ignores humidity and deflects less; quality maple gives the traditional feel a lot of players still prefer. Both play at a high level, so pick the one that matches how you want the cue to feel.

What is the McDermott G502 Cue built for?

It is set up as a playing cue. Playing cues are balanced for control on shot-making, break cues are heavier with a harder tip for power transfer, and jump cues are short and light to get the cue ball airborne. Using the right one also protects your playing cue from break wear.

What kind of grip does it have?

The grip is reptile skin. Irish linen wicks sweat and stays tacky, leather is plush and premium, and a no-wrap finish is fast and needs no maintenance. If your hands run warm, linen is usually the safer pick.

Is Quarter King an authorized McDermott dealer?

Yes. We are an authorized McDermott dealer, so this cue is genuine and carries the full manufacturer warranty against warpage and defects in workmanship. Warranty claims go through us — you do not have to deal with the factory yourself.

How fast does it ship, and can I return it?

Shipping is free on orders over $98 in the contiguous US, $5.50 flat otherwise, and you get tracking as soon as it moves. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery on unchalked, unused product — contact us first for a return authorization so it is credited without delay. Because this one is over $600, a 10% restocking fee applies to the return.
