Not sure how this turned into a Joint Protector thread.....I've had cue matching J/P's too, black delrin, white delrin, every kind of wood you can name....Don't really care, only time they are on is in the case right? Lols.......

Ebay....bawdypartz209 is the seller........

^^^^^^ So what's your point?

How many other folks like the look of 4 "sharp" points with bright veneers, steel joint, Crosses and Dots inlays, White delrin butt cap? For me personally it's mandatory....I've owned a bunch of different cues over the years, always this style...is it just me?...My current lineup....

Brunswick KU bumper i scored for my Scruggs, hard to find...but cool !!

I like an Old School cue just as much as the next guy but....don't think i would spend that much on a "wonder who made this" cue? but that's just me......

Their are a few reasons i'm not that worried about this right now #1 I've already got about twice what this cue is worth in it, ....#2 It plays good like it is....I might look into a reface sometime if that's what it needs? Not ignoring it....i know the issue is there.

Thanks Tate, cue does hit good...Not as strong as my Scruggs sneaky but good, i'm not going to worry too much about the lift...I shoulda kept that Model 3/5 Palmer you helped me I.D, i sold it last year

Hey hang on folks, I am in no way blaming Proficient Billiards for the issue with this cue, they are the best in the business, they work with what you send them....I should have checked it before i sent it for finish work.

When it's rolled together with either shaft, it raises and drops at the joint...not all that much but you can see it,both shafts are strait, I assume if you are looking/aiming down a strait shaft, the lift has no affect on the cue ball? Like i said before... it's in my head that it's there...

Good advice, my main cue is a dead strait Scruggs sneaky so thats my go to, The Adam is what it is....do wish now i didn't drop so much $$ in it, I've always done well on reselling cues, gonna take a hit if i ever sell that one..

So i bought this old (early 70's) Adam cue off the bay....for more $$ than i really wanted to spend on an old Adam, but i liked it, anyway....the same day it got delivered i looked it over, boxed it back up and sent it to Scot @ Proficient billiards for a refinish, replace butt cap,re-wrap...

Deff Scot @ Proficient Billiards, repairs, re-finish, whatever.....The Best!

It's all good, Only time the J/P are on.....in my case:grin:, Same on my Tim Scruggs. Looks like "Walking Dead" when they are piled up in there....

I've always been a sucker for old school white Delrin butt caps. the orig Adam w/logo was still in good shape....just didn't like the look, now i gotta go knock some balls around & see how it hits.......

These guys (Scot) can work magic, if you ever need cue work done, they can do it all. here's a 70's Adam "Ritz" cue they just did for me....Was pretty beat up...

So after much *****in and cryin on my part, Scruggs finally shows today....some dents n dings but overall pretty decent shape, just glad it showed up! might even go knock some balls around with it 2day....:yikes:

Update, Cue is in Sandston Va, 8.9 miles from the post office where it started over a week ago....should be here around June at this rate! nice job U.S.P. S!!!

Thanks for the positive reply's, I'll give it another day or 3 before i call a total loss......??

Dont think it was insured...
