    Purpleheart Shafts - Opinions?

    I have been using a PH Break Jump cue for about 3 years. Yes you can hit the crap out of the balls, but it is not always productive. It's nice to get all the ball to scatter all over the table, but if you don't a ball. It a great break for the other goy you are playing. What I have found is I...

    Schon refinishing question - R-12

    Thanks for your answers. I knew leaving it alone was the best bet. Yes shafts are not originial, but I love the way they hit. They came with the cue. I play with the 12.5 shaft, but the 13 doesn't even look like it has been touched. I just wish I could figure out the year and how many were made...

    Schon refinishing question - R-12

    The butt on this cue has been refinished because there is finish on the butt cap. I understand that schon will replace the butt cap on refinishing Jobs. The foraem is in perfect condition. New wrap would be nice. The butt has a nick/gouge below wrap. I have 4 options I think. 1-Send back to...

    anybody knows the model of this schon

    Mine needs new finish I have the same model that needs a new finish job on it. I agree that it is a 1993 model. That pin seams to be an indication of a 93. I have seen 3 or 4 and never could fine anything about them. I even e-mailed Evan, but no answer. Mine came with a shaft like yours, Most...

    Schon~ R-8 Dice Cue

    Nice Cue. If I did not just get an R-12 Red and Blue, I would consider this. With the time the way there are, it seems prices have fallen a little. Good Luck with the sale. I bet it plays like a monster. Jeff

    New Jumper Fool Lomax for me Throw like a dart for short tight jumps with 2 sections put together and add little butt for long over hande jumps. It's also nice to have a jump break. The jump part is a little heavy but great on a 9 foot table. It's Purple Heart and you drive with it. Good...

    How to carry a 3 piece Jump Cue

    I really like all your ideas, but I forgot to mention, I also have a hard head. Lomax said just put a 11 inch 3/4 dowel in a butt hole and then your done. Since I'm such a space case, I would be banging my good cue on the dowel all the time. A while back I gave my local cue maker a good bit...

    How to carry a 3 piece Jump Cue

    Thanks for the replys The case above is cool, but who want another bag, so being a simple guy, my Idea is; I'll just make a custom cap for the butt 11 inches long. That way I can just drop it in a but hole and when I have the stick put together, I can put the 11 inch Cap in the sleave in the...
