    Pad

    What is the purpose of a "pad" underneath the tip ? I have seen it on both ivory ferrules...and on non ivory ferrules. I'm thinking its for a "cushioning" effect, but am also wondering about the wood to pad, pad to tip bond. Seems like a middle man that doesnt need to be there if tip to shaft...

    I'm curious to know how many guys use an aftermarket shaft on their custom cues. I have a couple Richard Blacks, and a Capone that I have Predator shafts for. Thats all I play with. The original shafts (all with ivory ferruls) are put away. I just like the way the Predator plays. I recently...

    Put em in order

    So I was thinking...I know there are alot of variables (so lets not get into that right now), but lets say you had 4 cues...all pretty much the same (price, weight, inlays). Put them in order for me as far as future value, all around playability (including hit), and general desire by players. No...
