IMO, the important part is the consistency amongst the entire set and the cue ball weight in relation to the object balls. My Dynaspheres Bronze and Rhodium sets (all phenolic) are the tightest of all the sets I own including Aramith Tournaments. Cyclops Skittles and Hyperion are right there as well which makes sense being as Cyclops evolved into Dynaspheres. I believe the Dynashperes set you are referencing is one the their Dynaphex resin sets. I don't have any experience with those.

can the discrepancy in deviation between the sets have anything to do with the amount of use of the sets?

Oh, I see, I have seen some cuemakers installing a qctp on the Cue Companion that’s why I was asking.

The Hama cue highlights the similarity between hybrid cues and regular carbon fiber cues. The difference is that Hama cue's carbon-fiber shaft is only about thirteen inches long --- the rest of the cue is wood.

How different is that from a carbon fiber cue with a 30 inch shaft?? Why should that have such importance?

Having a five-piece cue means many joint protectors:

Again, slight differences in tip placement, stroke speed, and aim can explain what you are seeing.

I disagree. Any decent shooter following the procedures in my videos (using the golf tee and making sure the cue is over the rail diamond to help with tip position and aiming, observing CB motion, and taking lots of shots) can get repeatable and reliable comparisons among different tables. I certainly knew when shots were bad or not, especially with the banks. If I did not get a stop shot, I knew the aim or tip height was off slightly. And if the CB turned in place at all, I knew I had unintentional sidespin. If a player cannot get relatively consistent results, they probably should not be shooting kicks or banks in games. Did you see how consistent the shots were in the video? They weren’t all perfect, but the comparisons among the tables were certainly clear and reliable.
