I have a Lucasi ld shaft with many cracks in the ferrule , Very unsightly but it still plays okay . Cue is out of warranty so will have a local repair man fix it . What would be a good choice of material ? I am not concerned about losing any low deflection properties . Thanks Chuckg

I played one of the guys at our sr ctr the other day ,none too happy with my breaking . We play BCA rules .I go to 8 to his 7 . All said add done I won 3 of 4 sets ,game count was 26 to 17 . I broke 26 times and made a ball twice...how bad is that , Table is an OS Gandy 8 footer ,rack was one of...

Many years ago MaGoos in Tulsa had a cue maker tournament custom builders . I recall Stroud Scruggs Blud and Searing . I am sure there were a few more but that was way back when . Chuckg

I have been playing mostly with a cheap Crical cf cue . I play better with it than any of my wood shaft cues . I love my Owen cue and still use it ,,,sometimes with an ld shaft sometimes with one of Bobs . At 69 my stroke has a few hitches in it so I mostly use whatever inspires confidence ...

I have a 3 x 7 Buffalo case ,well over 25 years old . No issues ever except the brass rivets show some oxidation . fully loaded it weighs a bunch . I guess it is because the cues in there all hit a ton . Chuckg

I have been using the cue for 3 mos or so and have come to like it a lot . I think I play better with it than any of the wood cues I own . I have more confidence when playing harder shots ,especially inside spin . I am leaving the tip as is ,have not even shaped it yet . I have not put away my...

Our pool room is kept pretty cold so I wear a glove most days . I left my glove at home one day and i felt that the cf soaked up the cold , i am a senile senior so it could be all in my head or hands . Chuckg

I play a guy pretty regularly and he has a habit of taking balls out of the pockets when I am shooting the game ball . I never pull the trigger, in my mind he has just conceded . I have told him numerous times not to do it . still does it tho . Am I wrong ? Chuckg

I am not going to complain about how the cue plays , pretty good for a entry level cue . I intend to put a softer tip on soon . It has a layered Japanese tip according to their website . I doubt it is a Moori ,Glad your pleased with yours George . Chuckg
