    The Timi Scruggs Razor Blade Cue

    Nick that is a beautiful cue :thumbup: I love the razor blade "windows" in the butt section. Mike and Tim never cease to amaze me. They keep coming up with new innovative looks and ideas and yet manage to maintain a classic styling as well. Enjoy your cue; and feel free to post more pictures ;)

    Tim Scruggs

    Can't imagine playing with anything else! Love both of my Timmy Scruggs cues! :cool: The six pointer is my regular player, but I bring out the four pointer at least once a week and enjoy playing with it just as much. There are some subtle differences between the way they both play...

Most of the pros...

    How long can someone go without playing b4 they start losing their skill?

    I found the same to be true for me. Over the past year I took a few trips ranging in lenght from 5 - 12 days (where I didn't play pool while I was gone). I was expecting to be a little rusty when I returned, but I was amazed at how sharp I felt when I resumed playing again.

    New 6 Point Tim Scruggs Cue

    Nick, You said it in a nutshell... :D I continue to be amazed at how effortlessly one can move the cue ball around with Tim and Mike's cues (sometimes less is more..., less force = more action/result) ;)

    New 6 Point Tim Scruggs Cue

    Don, It's coming in at a shade over 19oz. The scales I used are decent, but there is a little +/- error to them. I measured the butt section at 0.96 lb (15.36 oz) and the shaft varied between 0.23 - 0.24 lb (3.68 - 3.84 oz), for a combined weight of 19.04 - 19.2 oz. When I get a chance I...

    New 6 Point Tim Scruggs Cue

    A couple more shots... Just thought I would share a few more photos: Joint protectors off... The diamonds/inlays line up nicely with the shaft on... Close up of ivory joint... Points/veneers (sorry for the flash reflection)... I don't take pictures as good as Guy does, but hopefully...

    Thanks Ralph. Also, I appreciate the input you provided to me a while back, when I was just starting down the road of having Tim and Mike build this custom cue for me.

    New 6 Point Tim Scruggs Cue

    Thanks Guy! I think I may have you to blame/thank for getting me started down this road in the first place. I was so satisfied with that first TS cue that you sold me, that it eventually led me to add another Scruggs cue to my collection. This is where it ends, right? ;)

    New 6 Point Tim Scruggs Cue

    Hey Sam, come on down anytime; you know where I can be found ;). The lizard skin wrap is definitely a change for me. It doesn't have as much thickness or density as the leather wrap, so you have a more direct feel of the cue beneath the wrap (there is a slightly thinner distance between the...
