I'm a Luddite when it comes to pool cues, so I was just wondering if anyone makes a 100% natural two-piece cue - just wood, leather, rubber, etc. - no steel, plastic, etc.
I'm no expert, but the only problem issues I could see are the finish and the glue, and I think a clever cuemaker could maybe find a way to navigate those issues.
Is there a reason why it would be bad to make a cue out of all-natural materials?
Personally, I wouldn't want ivory (I love elephants), but other than that, I'd vastly prefer a cue where the only feedback comes from leather, wood, and other natural materials.
I'm mainly asking out of curiosity, but such a cue would get on my radar as something I might want to buy and/or recommend to others someday.
Thanks!
