Imagine how silly the guys clinging to their maces must have seemed when the "modern" cue came onto the scene.
From what I've heard of Lassiter and his cues, I bet he would have been one the first to give carbon fiber a shot.

Your right tennis and golf players aren’t closed minded old idiots who don’t think or want anything to change.
Nothing wrong with CF shafts. It makes a great CueHorn

You can't just go half way. If you are going to choose a cue based on this you need to wear a suit and bow tie on league night.

Perfect! :grin-square:
And most do.

Coos Cues
I would like to see some evidence that anyone's fargo rating increased by simply changing to a CF shaft, or an LD one for that matter.
Doesn't have to be scientific I would settle for strong anecdotal evidence.
Let's hear the stories.
I have my doubts truthful ones exist.
Count me in for straight hard maple.

I agree, electric guitar is just the item that holds the pickups. Some people with a real good ear can say the wood makes a difference but I am not that good of a player to really know.
To the others who own Fender, love them as well, I use a Fender bass, American made of course. ( I have a room full of other instruments but back to pool.)
Would love to tour the Gibson factories, have seen many videos online. The best line comes from their custom shop video when they talk about the wood they use vs the regular shop. Quarter sawn all the way, just like the wood I use on cues and shafts.
Amen... :yeah:
I asked quite a while ago what Carbon Fiber shafts do that my wood shaft can’t.
...one reply was “durability”.....so I mentioned my ‘68 Joss...still original....
...that stopped that approach.
I’d also be worrried about a carbon tax in the future....
...’course I guess I should be worried about termites with my cue........

PT - What you do is, buy the MOST toxic insecticide you can find ( hit up Google and/or Amazon ), and just SOAK your cues in it right before sticking them back in your case.
PROBLEM SOLVED. You'll never see another termite anywhere NEAR those cues. I promise you...
And make sure you wash your hands.
Reallllyyyyyyyyy well.

Better than EZ Fiber or Fiber Supplement?
I thought I would put this up here again.. just substitute low deflection for carbon fiber lol The strange thing is I haven’t heard anyone say that they immediately played better because of a Revo shaft. They just liked the way it plays so they use it. What the hell wrong with that? Isn’t that why any of us play with the current cue we have.. we hit some with it and liked how it played?
I have loved this game for 30 years but I honestly have to say pool players are some of the most negative worst people I’ve ever been around. All we do as a hole is tear ourselves down. Any new ideas or equipment is put down as fake and silly by people who most the time have never even tried them. I also play golf and it couldn’t be more different . They are happy to embrace new idea’s and no one cares why you like to play golf ... all that matters is you do so your part of the brotherhood.
I don’t care if you like to gamble or play leagues or play tournaments or any combination of the 3. If your playing pool your cool with me..

Do you use a jump cue? Wimpy would be WAY more against the jump cue than a non-wood shaft
Never have and wouldn't even at gunpoint.
You obviously don’t play guitar.
