    OB Phoenix 11.8mm 30” shaft initial review

    No mine came with the piku trifecta tip and I’m not sure if I like it or not. It’s already glazed over and that’s only after two nights of play. I’ll probably replace it with a hard precision tip once this one need changed.

    OB Phoenix 11.8mm 30” shaft initial review

    Huh? Their called Low deflection shafts? I’m not going through and screenshot thing every shaft. But this is the shaft that came with my katana cue. Actually the katana shaft is considered one of the best LD shafts lol. Especially since it’s not over priced marketing junk like the brands that...

    OB Phoenix 11.8mm 30” shaft initial review

    I’ve tried a bunch of LD shafts. Katana, meucci’s, predator and McDermotts. The kielwood is supposed to be a low deflection shaft more so then regular maples. Because of how light they become and forward mass is less then that of a regular maple. Then the shaft also has similar traits as carbon...

    OB Phoenix 11.8mm 30” shaft initial review

    I ordered a new Phoenix 30” shaft fro OB cues. One of the last 11.8mm shafts that they made. They no longer make the 11.8mm. My initial thoughts are that it’s an awesome shaft. I’ve always like the torrified wood hit. The taper is a conical/pro hybrid. You can’t really tell with the conical part...

    Joint material question.

    That’s what I was thinking. Like I said I’ve put my black dot shaft onto a stainless joint compared to the meucci plastic joint and it stiffened up a lot compared to the meucci. My custom im having built I’m going with a black juma joint with a tomahawk ferrule.

    Joint material question.

    Then maybe it was the ferrule of the stainless cues I’ve used. I did not know that. But that is kind of weird. Not saying it is anything, maybe I’m just crazy. I’ve put one of my black dot shafts onto a cue with a different stainless joint and it stiffened up a bit. Might just be a pore...

    Joint material question.

    I’ve been looking to get a custom made finally. So my shooter right now is a meucci that’s from the early 90’s. It has some brown plastic material as the joint. I kind of like how the hot feels, it’s softer. I have shot with a stainless joint on a couple cues and I never liked them. I ended up...

    In search of a cue maker to make one piece cue into two piece.

    I have been given some really old 1 piece cues(maybe 50’s and 60’s) that were at my grandfathers table and then my fathers and now mine. They are at their last leg of life. So instead of letting them die, I’d like to revive them and get one made into a 2 piece cue with some added inlays or...

    Purchased a crappy $50 cue from Amazon.

    Yeah I was looking for some cues for around the house. And if it’s someone I know that won’t destroy a shaft I’ll let them shoot with a good shaft on it. I’m probably going to buy another so my other black dot can go on it. I shoot with the OB Phoenix on my meucci.

    No it has gator on it. It cost $45. Made by champion 8 or something like that.

    Purchased a crappy $50 cue from Amazon.

    So I bought a shitty $50 cue on Amazon with threads that were 5/16x18. Just wanted to experiment with my shafts. I have two black dot shafts, a regular meucci shaft from the 80’s and also a OB Phoenix shaft. So it got here and I threw on the black dot and OB shaft and dang the cue actually shot...

    Questions regarding ivory and travel.

    Very informative, thank you for that. I was generally curious to the whole ordeal and what happens. My uncle has a sneaky Pete from the 80’s that has a ivory ferrule. I’ve never owned a cue with ivory in it. This information might become useful one day due to my uncles cue will most likely come...
