It's very possible that he made one similar to mine.

Dick Abbott's cue was made for one of Cal's daughters. I was dating a different daughter when I received my cue. Cal and myself are the only ones who have handled it to my knowledge.

When I machined the replacement butt plate, I made it the same length as the original. I'm sure it added a few ounces to the weight. The balance point is 16 inches from the butt, which is a few inches up from the grip.

Thank you for your post Dick. I don't think the pictures do the cue justice. Cal was a perfectionist and an innovator.

Thanks guys. Yeah I know the butt plate issue takes some away from the value, but I had no choice. Hopefully someone will appreciate it as much as I do if I decide to sell it.

Thank you cuebuddy. I actually got to watch Cal work on this cue. He told me it was for a friend that was about my size. Little did I know it was to be my Christmas present. He was an amazingly talented man and mastered eveything he tried. There's no way I would have the patience to hand checker...

Last pic. 60 7/8 inches long. 28.8 ounces. center of balance 16 inches from butt. the stainless steel butt plate is not original. it was machined by myself many years ago because the original broke. Dick Abbott at billiardcue.com told me in an email that this is definitely a Cal Hedden cue.

Some more pics.

Here are some of the pics of the Cal Hedden cue.

Sorry guys. Been busy emailing Dick Abbott about the cue. Will post pics of the cue tonight.
