Hi all,
I was feeling adventurous and one night I ordered a Cuetec Fusion shaft at at bargain.
For all who don't know - it's a Snooker shaft to fit right onto your normal Cuetec butt instead of the R360, for example.
EDIT: And on the whole Internet there was absolutely nothing to find about the shaft!
And fun I was having. 9mm tip and proper ash.

Sounds weird? Not at all.
The shaft feels awesome, silky and not sticky (it's fully coated).
The ash looks nice enough (but has no dark grain filler), has a canonical taper, brass ferrule and is nicely balanced.
The 9mm tip was not shaped at all (completely flat) and after some handywork to round it off was ready to play.
I expected to miss just about everything. Instead the first CB hit went just about straight. Playing some 14.1 lead to excellent result, even on long balls.
Playing a CB close to the rail never was easier, too. Excellent feeling for the hit.
A revelation: finally you're able SEE where the hell you're actually hitting the CB. The brass ferrule has a nice contrast.
And as for LD: it's a cheap shaft but the deflection is a tad better than a Tiger LD at 12,75mm without any funky business.
Every now and then I would use my main cue with a Tiger LD and think: is that huuuge. I can't see a damn thing!
Wow. I haven't had that much fun in a long time. And I plan to use it regularly for training and precision exercises.
Cheers,
