This makes me think the tip shaping devices that puncture deeper in to the tip may cause crevices that will hold chalk longer and cause more frequent skids. Just a thought.

a STEAL is right bro!

A couple of thoughts.

The comment by a customer that it is good for tail shots makes sense. I have the Pat Fleming Counter Weight and it does help on rail shots or when you are bridging over a ball.

Second, I think these cues might be beneficial for very short players who of necessity have their grip hand much farther forward.

As an extreme example I know a dwarf who plays about 500 Fargo (despite knee and hip issues that mean he also has to use crutches). Because he’s so short he has to hold the cue very far forward so the balance is off. And a shorter cue also doesn’t work well because he often has to move his hand back and use a long bridge to reach certain shots. Unfortunately these cues are out of his price range.
