I have the 11.8 "Must" and the taper took some getting used to. I suspect its an attempt to replicate the taper of the Revo more closely. I would assume its just as LD as the older rhino. The stock Nishiki tip is actually pretty good imo, feels very similar to a Kamui black medium. Had Dave's...

One big benefit I'm thinking I might get out of switching to CF is the potential to use my playing cue as a break cue, and still get a bit of LD or at least a similar pivot length to the OB shaft. The fancy wooden ferule on my OB1 has always kept me from breaking with it. And I figure with a...
