Yes. Maybe I was hyperbolic with my initial statement. The ex pro is the perfect shaft for me, YMMV. Very low deflection, nice taper, stiff hit. My friend set up two balls near a corner pocket, practically in the jaws. At the far end of a 9' table, 1 diamond from the head rail, he hits very...

Well, I've previously tried a z2 and a 314-2 and could feel the hollowness, especially the 314. I like the Jacoby Hybrid shaft but the ex pro is stiffer. I can move the cue ball with less effort. Also, the Zan tip is providing excellent feel and spin. A very strong teammate did a deflection test...

I actually started using a Mezz Ex Pro and cannot imagine a more perfect shaft. Fits great on a Schon too. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Mike started to appear on the CDX website just before last year's Super Billiards Expo but that company was driven into the ground not long after.

Before I finished the thread, I was going to suggest this exact cue. I recently bought the dark stained curly maple model with the ex pro shaft. I recommend the ex pro. If you think you want one of those cues at Manning's, give him a call about upgrading to the ex pro shaft. Seyberts only...

I don't know what vcash even is, but I recently picked up an ec7 with an ex pro shaft, dark stained curly maple. I wish the maple had more figure but the cue is very nice. Well executed linen wrap, snug joint. Truthfully, I was only interested in the shaft but worried about the shaft not...

I could show you my receipt from my picture, priority mail, USPS. Unless the recipient tried to put one over me, it was delivered in that condition. Since the buyer was still very happy with the shaft, I doubt it. I recently bought a cue from Seyberts and it was sent UPS in a tube. Sent from...

At the 2003 PGA championship, I watched Jim Furyk practicing chips on a practice green. I walked around collecting signatures on a flag. Two hours later he was still chipping onto that green! Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Have you actually tried this schon hybrid shaft? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

You are correct but it was well packed with bubble wrap which is why the shaft came out fine. It was much better packed than the CDX shaft that came in that box originally but that is a story for another thread. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

This is what a recently sent package looked like upon arrival. There will be a pvc tube inside the box whenever I send out another cue or shaft. At least the shaft came out of the box unblemished. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Generally, low deflection shafts have wood removed from the first few inches behind the ferrule. Some replace the space with foam or balsa wood. Predator leaves it hallow and I could always feel it. The Jacoby Hybrid has been my favorite on my search for the holy grail. It still deflects a bit...

This is interesting. Could the day come where only custom cue makers make standard shafts? Joss, Samsara and now Schon are making LD shafts. The market is getting crowded. I think this shaft would do better if they shortened the ferrule. I'm more interested in trying the Samsara. Sent...

Their own site lists MSRPs. Their prices are still reasonable at the online vendors. I will admit that as you move up in model lines, they do get expensive. I'd rather have a custom four pointer than a $1k Schon. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I split boxes of OB and BD chalk with a buddy at the expo. I loved the OB chalk so much, I haven't tried the BD cube yet. I also have some MC and like it too. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I think a thinner shaft will happen before 3/8-10. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I spoke to the Predator staff at the APA Nationals about selling shafts for other pins. She said they are probably only going to do radial pins. Concerns over consistency of the pins. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

You can order a red dot shaft from Budget Billiards for 170 to fit any of those cues you recently bought. First thing is to stop the bleeding buying all of those cheap cues you will never get your money back on. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Would like to see if a used shaft is out there before I order one. United joint, please. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
