If I am buying a second hand cue, or anything else, defects covered under the original warranty would have already surfaced.

Depends... I just sold an expensive shaft that I had only owned for 4 weeks, and used maybe 5-10 hrs. I wish I hadn't registered it so I could have handed over a warranty.

Good stroke feels soft,efortless, smooth.

The tightness and stiffness in muscles is due to lactic acid build up. To eliminate this, when you finished your routines, take a brisk walk for 20 minutes. Problem solved plus it is great for your entire body.

14 years ago you said 15 minutes. Any reason for the additional 5 minutes? Not ridicule, just wondering.

Is this for the legs only or does it release lactic acid in the whole body?

I've heard its way better/faster under new owners. That being said i'd still go with my man Cody Cash(PK Custom Cues) in Wichita or Proficient.

Cody quoted me a 12-month backlog on new cue orders and four to six months on repairs...

If you want something back sooner, it's going to have to be Proficient.

No.

If you buy quality Cue should not fail.

Really? Name some quality cues?

I've seen split shafts, broke ferrules, warping on butts and shafts, butts peeling, loose joints on all sorts of different brands. I don't think defects discriminate.

Got to go!! Drop to $1,300.00

Late 70's probaly 76-79, brass pin and pill bumpers are the giveaway.

I'll say shoulder or neck are most likely to affect my play. Possibly biceps too. Soreness in other muscle groups has never been noticeable while playing, but I only play for a few hours at a time. All day tourney warriors might be affected more.

For random other stuff, I'd advise against doing heavy upright rows. I nearly tore my shoulders up doing those as a young-un. That exercise is on the no-no list by some weights experts anyway.
