Some players like a cue with more weight toward the tip than the back. Get a real forward-weighted cue from Black Blade Cues that nearly triples shaft weight and drops butt weight by a third.

Options allow a less forward-weighted cue with shafts available in weights 6, 7 , 8, 9, 10, and 11 ounces AND butts at 10, 11, and 12 ounces.

$550. Money-back 60-day guarantee except return-shipping cost.

Even so, this could be an expensive alternative to The Counter-Weight that helps some to hit over a ball or shooting off the rail. It places a weight on the shaft.

I have seen a couple of them in the video "reels" on Facebook. They look impractical for serious playing across several dimensions. As well as being just dumb.

I wish I could like this comment 100X's. Brian.
 
why not just have a better player shoot for you. this takes away the need for all the stupid gadgets.
 
Give the company credit for being innovative. Look close at the middle cue in my original post on sale now. "Liquid Weight" is written on the cue. The company's earlier name was Liquid Weight and it had ball bearings in liquid in the butt (and shaft, I believe) giving it a dead-blow hammer effect. Later, magnets were used instead.

It no longer has those movable weights in its cues. Were the weights removed from the butts? Did non-movable weights replace the movable weights in the shafts? It makes sense----the result being a very forward-weighted cue; the new Black Blade cue.

I’ve always said that the greatest value of having your own cue is how it spins….a 10 ounce shaft is going to push the ball off course like hitting with a broomstick.
 
backers never get a good deal as they rarely are a big enough favorite to overcome what they have to give the player.

and most get dumped at some point to make it worse. another word for backer is sucker.
 
The heavy shafts are probably, for most part, garbage. But there may be instances where they are helpful as noted in September this year:

I seem to remember Efren talking about his $10 cue he loved because the shaft was so dense & heavy.

have been adding lead weight to the joint end of my playing shafts for more than 20 years.

It works.
