I just got another Zorro/Jackpot cue yesterday. It looks good and feels good with the weight and balance.
This one is 60' and my original one is 58". So now I got several different combinations of butts and shafts I can experiment with. 30" butt with 30" shaft, 30" butt with 29" shaft, 29" butt with 29" shaft, 29" butt with 30" shaft, and I can switch back and forth between butts and shafts since they all match.
It is different than the original ones that were made. It has a camphor burl handle (cored with purple heart) instead of the maple handle.
I can't wait to hit some balls with it, when, and if, this virus situation gets under control.
Nice looking batch of cues you have there.
Give us a "comparison" when you have a chance to try them all out at the table at once.
nice looking cues
i bet you hhave some great players here
Thanks for the mention. Great looking group of players.
I really love those two bulldog cues, and the rest are lovely too
Thank you, Lee for the post! You were great to work with and I enjoyed our conversation immensely. I can't wait to see the cues you make from the wood you have collected!
Thanks for the kind words Snooker Theory!

Great looking batch of cues, I would think they are great players too. I don't like "gaudy" cues at all.
From top to bottom
1 conversion from Kevin Joiner at Joiner Custom Cues
2 custom from Ryan Jones...Bishop
3 & 4 conversions from Skip Thorp at Bulldog Custom Cues
5 new Jackpot/Deano from Dean
I plan on taking them all out for a test drive just as soon as the world opens back up for business.
