Best All-Around Production Cue for ~$1000 (Value, Playability, Durability, Support)?

I prefer traditional looking cues. I like Joss cues quite a bit. The stuff I find ugly is more along the lines of every carbon fiber shaft ever put on a traditional cue. I ordered a Joss 20-37 with a 12.50 mm HP shaft from them last week. I have it now, and it was $857.44. Shipped the same day I ordered it, came with joint protectors and a polishing cloth.

Looks nice, you'll have to post pics when it arrives

Fargo rate question

I play in an 8-ball league on Tuesday nights.
On Monday my rate was 575 last night I won all 5 games and this morning my rate dropped to 572?
An average day has 35,000 - 40,000 new games added to the system. This in general gives us a better understanding of how everybody plays, including all your opponents and you. This part, even without new play from you, could raise or lower you by a few tenths of a point or even points. Any effect of your new games is happening at the same time. If you only played a handful of games, the former part can dominate the change you see.

2 rail banking?

If a player does not have the cueing accuracy to avoid unintentional spin, then he should be working only on fundamentals and ball pocketing basics, not kicks and banks.

Systems are a huge distraction if you can't even hit a ball with precision. They can also be a distraction even if you can.
This is 100% correct , however we all know like much good advice it will be acknowledged then ignored.

I practice kicking to fine tune my ball striking. I know how to cue accurate and I know how to kick. Kicking let's me know if I have gotten sloppy.

Fargo rate question

Are your Tuesday night matches showing up yet even? It's often 5-7 days before I see my recent matches show up in Fargo.

But it's not uncommon for a rating to move a point or two just randomly like that. I've had mine move by a point when I haven't played at all but it's never more than a point or two.

FWIW, our LO enters match results from all her various leagues on Friday, regardless of when they were played.

Current Joss models are not that traditional.
There are quite a few cues that I almost like but I hate the narrow points and the big gaps between them.
There are a few that look really nice but they are 5 points and I’m not sure how I feel about an uneven number of points
