Interested in this club myself. Sharp looking stick. Anybody have any first hand experience?

That's what I've always thought too. When I first heard about the tip, I thought it sounded like a great idea, but then I read about it and always felt they did it backwards. Although when you read their explanation for why they put it together the way they did (i.e. the phenolic on the...

Isn't it funny how you can talk yourself into it being "more you than the cue" when you have something you play well with? I think the same thing applies to golf (for me anyway). I had a set of irons that I just SMASHED. A club and a half longer than anything I have ever hit. I got rid of...

I had Jim Baxter make me some JPs and the Post Office lost them. We BOTH spent days on the phone listening to them blame the people we just got off the phone with while giving us someone new to talk to next. I think it is built into their business model to give you a substantial amount of...

Yeah, it sounds a little shady to me that the #2 "magically" never appeared in any of the photos. If the guy never mentioned it was a factory second, I think you are well within your rights as a consumer to expect something to be done.

Great post. What field did you commission into?

GREAT post! It's this kind of detailed response that moves you up my imaginary list of "guy who is going to build my next cue." (Not that you weren't already at/near the top).

I thought you were "bored"/done 4 pages ago???

Is this how you do the sheet rock vs. Kamui chalk test?

Love mine and if you keep an eye on the sale forum you can get decent deals all the time. Mine was like brand new for $135 (thanks, Kidwill). I don't think that's too bad for the peace of mind it gives me protecting the $2000+ worth of junk I carry in it.:smile:

Thanks, brother. Appreciate you taking the time to answer all of our questions in this thread.

My home table has tan/camel cloth and one of the pleasant unintended side effects of choosing this color cloth is that I use tan/brown chalk which is really good about not staining your shafts/ferrules like is typical for standard blue chalk, but the premium chalks all seem to be coming out in...

Lol. I agree. Pretty cool.

Hey, what kind of wrap do you have on that thing? They don't make those with wraps. LOL.

To me, it's like golf. Even when you are "free stroking" it, it's fleeting/temporary. You rent the ability to play perfect pool, you don't own it. How often have you heard a pro golfer shoot a 65-66 and tell you they feel like they left 3-4 shots out there on the course? Granted, I'm no pro...

I have a brown one I could probably be talked into swapping out the colored portion of the butt with if you're interested. It's in mint condition, if you were worried about it. The cue breaks down into 3 pieces and the colored section of the butt is all we would have to swap. Just a thought...

Logically, you would think it is likely more a case of the instances where you got perfect shape/safe to be more memorable (and therefore seem to happen "more often"). But, with that being said, if I had a dollar for every time I got left "in jail" by someone I KNEW had no idea what they were...
