Anyone else miss the J Hagger Cue Extension?

CocoboloCowboy · Nov 12, 2019

Had one, it worked great, was lightweight, price was reasonable. Sadly the company apprently went under, and also sadly no one purchase the rights to remanufacture the product.

Surprised some entraupneur offshore has not done some sort of clone and started selling an item that worded, as advertised, and was a great product.

Can't remember (old age) which one that was. Picture?

Is that the one Johnny Archer used to use?

I prefer using the Tony Ryan cue extender that is wood and close to the size and feel of a cue butt.
It comes in 12” & 18” versions & any shot requiring more extension reach is best played either left
handed (opposite shooting hand) or else the bridge which is my last preference to use on any shot.

Could be wrong, but seems the "Drill Instructor's" cue extension is pretty close. I use and really like it.

I had one and loved it until the outside shell cracked and broke.

I now use a Tony Ryan extension.

The Bazooka seems to be a modified Hagger.

The only difference is the neoprene rubber sheath on it and the obnoxious logo.

(one reason I like the Hagger is that it was very plain)

Black tape takes care of that

Think the Hagger was under $25.00 no fancy graphics, just some minor branding on the butt end. Simple, Cheap, and Worked.

Hard to find something that works as advertised, Hagger did it.

I think the one Johnny Archer used to use was more like this one:

Well I just finished watching the guys 53/4 minute U-Tube like he took a Hagger, reverse engineered it, and is calling it his. Same basic design, with some tweaking. $50..00 seems pricy.

I am sure in 6 months they will be on e-bay, after someone off shore copies, and clone it. Honestly it IMHO not a $50.00 Accessory.

Hagger came in different lengths, mine was 16", it was cheaper, and I am a DUMBA** for selling it.

Is that it?

I thought you (many times) blamed the American education system for not making you a better student?

I owned one and it reminded me of holding a vacuum cleaner pipe, way too big diameter. ended up getting a Tony Ryan and it's much better, imo.

How Hagar did the inside was very clever though.

When the rubber-ish innards worked its way out of my Tony Ryan extension, I fixed it in this manner:

I took a pair of my wife's black polyester ankle socks, put one inside the other, then stuffed the toe end into the extension and rolled the cuff over the edge of the mouth of the extension. I then used some black electrician's tape and heartily taped the cuff down against the outside of the extension's mouth.

Works better than the original method...and far easier on a cue's finish too.
