For anyone that's used becue shafts with both the white and clear ferrules - do you have a preference? Is one lighter than the other? Stiffer?

I have the Prime II 12.0, I have used the Engage 11.8 shaft, I have only used the clear, I love the way my cue hits with the clear, that is why I never tried the white.

I’ve got the Xmas spirit

There have been so many books written about guys like Kenny. Ask Jay Helfert or the Beard. Part of the lore.
We eat it up but on a personal level people act differently, or the majority of us do.

No doubt the likes of Crane, Balsis, Mosconi, etc could clean up no matter the equipment.

It’s not so much the large size of the pockets on these old GCs, but the number of available shots beacuse of the open pocket lanes that make working through congestion/clusters easier. Still, you have to know how to play smart educated patterns.
