Ooops forgot the pool stuff.
The morning after ass says mint of competition in league.
The new swing thought worked well. A couple of shots I slipped and fell. I did manage to get my mind right and finished the fight.
Well that was round 2 in the 9 ball. Got my ass kicked in 8 ball. He shot Real good! I missed 1 ball and lost them all. He shot good but I have seen a Girl put 5 racks of 8 ball together with opponent in the chair. 
The morning task is refine the the final part of the program as my mechanic all is all good er uh available when I have my mind right (reference self hypnosis).

Reasonably priced, fairly cheap, vintage cues with the most amazing hitting shaft wood?

For the 80s / 90s price (and even today) the hard rock maple wood (NA grade AA) McDermott shafts setup with the usual 3/8x10 big pin thread is a great shaft for what you pay:
I think some of the E series McDermott cues from the 90s still hold great looks and hit with many white and black joint collar choices in the same 3/8x10 big pin with the shaft above:

Not a fan of their EK series which has a different joint (I think goes for the EM series). I wish they used the same forward balance weight bolt system (now and back then) as Jacoby (and many others including Carmeli and Pierce). Plus I wish McDermott could pick a standard joint diameter and stick with it (.845 or .850?), plus maybe a little less diameter "flare" for the butt handle area.
