That's actually a great suggestion! Every time he bounces the cue ball ask him to come watch the shot...every shot if that's what it takes!

It's not just when I can feel a "lip" between the ferrule and the shaft that bothers me. When I'm purchasing a brand new custom, I don't want to even see glue lines between the ferrule and the shaft...and that's a common occurance for some makers. Picky you say? I say yep! It's my money I'm...

Did you ever watch a commercial over and over and over and over and over again...and that commercial caused you to go out and buy whatever they were advertising despite your best efforts to keep yourself from buying it because you knew that's exactly what they were tyring to get you to do...

Not about this particular behavior...but there is about unsportsmanlike behavior. If you feel he was purposely doing it (which if he didn't stop when you said something to him...means he was) then I'd contact the league operator and file a complaint. Leagues are meant to be fun...and mutual...

Love the OP's idea for this. Pretty cool! My state's already been spoken for otherwise I'd participate too... :embarrassed2: Any chance that those who have the ability to post pics can do "updates" of what the cue's looking like along the way? :)

I understand what you're saying...and it's a big "pet peeve" of mine too! I can't stand it when the shaft isn't flush at the collar! I play a Mezz WD700 right now and sent my Mezz in for a rewrap. I'm playing the WD700 on a Schon butt...and there's just a "hair" difference between the two. I...

Too funny! :D

I'm thinking there's a reason why no one wants to get rid of theirs! LOL

"House Rules"

It's sad too...but I have to agree. I've had several Jacobys and one in particular I still regret getting rid of it. It was in the top 10 playing cues I've ever owned. Radial joint like the OP's.

I liked watching that video. It makes me want to go practice my jumps! :)

Are you referring to the cue...or the cantaloupes??? ;)

I had one of Andy's Titlist conversions in my hands for awhile...I regret letting that one go. It was a stellar player. I believe you're going to be VERY happy with the purchase! :)

Yep...What he said! Elegant to say the least!

I think the left one is too much...butt not the right one! (Purposely spelled incorrectly :) ) You are very much ok with your thoughts...it's all in the small details that makes me want to go back for another...and that's a small detail that is a BIG deal to me as well.

Since "The Shark" was mentioned (it is Shark Week on Discovery!)...I suppose I would liken those who shoot with a sidearm stroke to Jim Furyk. He doesn't do anything "right" with his golf swing...yet is amongst one of the best players...or has been at least!!! Furyk's swing was described as...

I have a Tascarella cue that is...well...pretty "expensive" compared to other custom cues I've owned. Is some of that "name"? Sure. Is some of that marketing? Sure. Is some of that craftsmanship? You bet. Does it play more "solid" than other custom cues I've owned (and there's been plenty)...

You know, I absolutely see your point...and agree that respect should be expressed on BOTH sides. :)

Well put JoeyA!!! :)

That's an awesome story! Thanks for taking the time to share some "positive"! :)
