I have a couple Schon cues I use, one is my primary player. I have a couple 314 pre-cat shafts I've used for years and like them. I think the 314's are about 12.6mm.
I also have three OEM maple Schon shafts I don't use anymore. These I believe are about 13mm and feel like I've screwed a club on the end of my cue, (and hit like it) since I've used the 314's for so long.
It is possible to take the Schon shafts down to match the 314 12.6mm od and shorten the Schoen ferrule to the 314 spec and improve the deflection of it? This would enable me to get some use out of one of them.
I also have a Schon Hybrid that plays about the same as the old OEM maple shafts even though it is a segmented shaft. I think it's about 13mm too with a longer ferrule than the 314's. Maybe this shaft is the one I should experiment with?
Any thoughts on potentially imparting some LD properties to one of the 13mm shafts by reducing the OD of it and shortening the ferrule would be appreciated.
Thanks.
