Glad we are getting 2 tries coz I did have a 2nd response:In know...just giving the railbirds and woofers something to watch.
I like non-matching colors, err... collars.
It usually ends up that way when you have a nice shaft.
That's what The Crazy Redhead told me anyway.

Thanks Paul. Here is the rest of it and a couple others.
This one is 31” and he was used to playing with a carbon fiber with a black ferrule. He didn't like the white, so I switched it out later.

I'd like to hit a few with that. See how it responds.
I have a couple of old shafts with similar grain that play very well I might add.
Looks much better w black.
These shafts are flat faced wood big pin Kielwood shafts that are not cored or use any weight inserts.
The KW shaft diameters are 12.6mm, 12.75mm, 12.81 mm and 12.85mm. The lightest shaft is 3.82 ozs.
I still chuckle when I think about all the forum static I got when I started my search for heavier version all
wood KW shafts the did not have to be 30”, 13mm diam, or use inserts to increase the weight of the shaft.
For players still using maple shafts you owe it to yourself to try playing with a KW shaft. I still enjoy playing
with my orig. maple shafts but when serious play is needed, you’ll see me switch to playing with a KW shaft.

Got my vote.
Imo, they resonate even better than standard hard maple.
But I'm medicated, so...

Performance outweighs looks when it comes to shafts.
Ron is right but when you can have both and it doesn’t cost any extra, it seems pretty obvious what to do.
However, there’s also another consideration that matters just as much which is affordability. Because a cue
already comes with a shaft, then adding a KW or CF shaft is more akin to a luxury rather than a necessity.
