I go by maple shaft, long ferrule and BHE. No confusion whatsoever.

Deflection isn’t just squirt. It is the sum total of squirt and swerve.

Wrong!
Swerve is a factor of spin and speed and the arch of the swerve has nothing to do with how much the CB squirt.

I just got done shooting an old school cue today with a maple shaft and its one of the best hitting cues.

Deflection could very well be a myth. If anything, a carbon shaft gives me more trouble.

Not a myth. You probably don't understand it, and you compensate for it without even noticing by force of habit.

Damn it - when you think the opening was clear as windexed glass.

That is the point - that kind of cool died with them. But their artistry made all three immortal. Lucky for us!

I have 2 wood and a carbon one.
Still not sold on carbon

Billy had his moments. Did he have a miss worse than Zielinski on the 8 at hill-hill? I didn't catch the Gangflot match

about the same. billy's pocket was more blind but both shots were shots they wouldn't miss if it weren't for the pressure

Oh, yeah. He looks like a very interesting character, with stories to tell.

I don’t think I would have seen it coming .. the odds of the scratch in the side our so minimal if I’m shooting that 8 I’m just focused on a smooth medium stroke. I know the scratch is possible but more times then not it won’t . That’s the way it goes sometimes.

The 2 railer to the side happens to me just running the CB off a cut. I think the outside spin you had on it sealed it. There's also a 3 or 4 to the corner off your bank.

I periodically apply a light coat of Renaissance Wax to my cue shafts after wiping the shafts with a damp cloth or a cloth towel moistened with rubbing alcohol. The wax really leaves a glossy smooth finish that creates a coating. It seals the wood pores opened by cleaning the shaft. It is important to apply at least 2 coats after cleaning the shaft otherwise a single coat of Renaissance wax regularly applied keeps your shafts like satin. I’ve been doing this for years with all my cues and for friends. Before Renaissance Wax, I was using Craftsman Cue Wax (Birmingham, England) but it’s hard and expensive to obtain.
