Thanks.

I have the opportunity to purchase one from a friend who has long retired that cue and went on to more fancier cues. He recommended me taking it off his hands and I will be test driving one soon.

My friend gave me a warning that I may not like the cue because the butt is a big bigger than modern cues. So I'm assuming Ray built this. It has his signature. He met Ray in a Vegas show and bought 6 shafts from Ray. So look out for different tapers?

He also made the mention that the ferrules are a bit smaller than the cues of that era. So I'm assuming Shuler was ahead of his time.

I'm just curious in how it shoots but the story of the guy is pretty fascinating. Seems like was well known.

Anything I should be aware of?
