Breaking ground on new backyard pool hall

Ordered my carpet today at Ward's furniture store in huntsville texas. Won't get it for two weeks but i guess I'll wait. 3300$ and change. Blueish gray color, shouldn't show dirt bad but i do have a vacuum! Lol. I did put a door knob lock on my front door today so all i need is my pool table! I owe a little over 1700$ for carpet and i think that's my final spending so I'll try to figure out my total cost soon. I ordered two swivel bar stools with arm rest for a little over a 1000$ probably will get two more but my first two stools are still almost two weeks away. Probably are on a slowboat from China!
I know I asked before ...who is setting it up?

Sold RARE BLUE STAIN VARIANT McDermott D17 Pool Cue Stick

RARE BLUE STAIN VARIANT McDermott D17 Pool Cue Stick

This stain and the cork wrap are factory options that you could order when they were producing the D series.

This cue is in Pristine like almost new condition.
Only issue i can see is on the ring of one of the shafts a little flacking with the clear coat as you can see in the pic, and on the butt cap a black spot the size of a pencil tip which is actually very hard to see but I got somewhat of a Pic.
And to be honest it's smaller then the tip of a pencil.

Both shafts roll straight together and apart, they have slight taper roll.

Cue Overall Weight - 19.8 / 19.3 ounces
Butt Weight - 16 ounces
Shaft 1 Weight - 3.8 ounces
Shaft 2 Weight - 3.3 ounces

Shaft 1 Diameter - 13.35 mm
Shaft 2 Diameter - 11 mm

When it comes to choosing a shaft, Is deflection the only factor?

There is no such thing as a no deflection shaft because of the laws of physics, low deflection means there is some deflection and like every shaft ever made you will have to account for some deflection when the cueball is struck off center, I like that I have to account for less with my Becue shaft,
so it deflects less. how much less. if you dont know you still dont know where to aim. only would a no deflection cue would allow that.

so with either shaft you have to know where to hit in your adjustment.

unless of course you just use the correct bridge length and angle. and then most times there is none to worry about.
