True sneaky from Rick Howard. Bocote and maple with the big pin and full shaft. I’ve had the cue since 2012 and guessing it’s around 15-20 years old. No logo, has ‘RH’ initials on the joint face. The joint diameter is identical to my other Howard so confident it’s one of his cues.
Note: The butt has some cracks in it and missing a bumper. The pics show that. I bought the cue like that and they’ve been the same since. The points are even within a sixteenth of an inch.
The butt rolls straight and I’ll say the shaft has a very slight roll. I played with it last weekend and it shoots fine, solid and stiff hitting. It will make a good break cue as well.
Specs:
Butt: 15.53 oz., 29 inches, 3/8x11 brass pin, no bumper, some finish checks around the base of the points.
Shaft: 4.13 oz., 28 15/16 inches, 12.9mm at the tip, looks like an LBM ferrule, Triangle tip, some blueing as seen but has plenty of life left.
