Barnhart or Capone?

I will be buying another cue over the next couple weeks and have identified 2 cues that I want. I already own a barnhart and love it!! I have never had the pleasure of shooting with a Capone, but hear they shoot well too.

Any recommendations from those of you that have had the opportunity to try both?

I like a cue with good feed back and a good stiff hit.

Thanks

I own both and you can not go wrong with either one. Their feel and playability are very close and I switch from one to the other all of the time.
Since you already have a Barnhart, go for the Capone. In the end, you will have two very good cues.
 
I have owned several of both...both are great players, but...

I play with a Barnhart, so I am biased...

both

I also own both and highly recommend them both. You might just have to buy both cues!

I've been playing with both, and not only once. In my oppion, the hit is very similiar, but they do have slightly differences. The difference comes from the taper of the shafts, Barnhart is a little stiffer than Capones, Barnhart use his unique taper. Capone's feel is more gentle, something like a pro-taper, that will generate more spins.

they are both very good cues with attractive price, I suggest you to try all of them. you cant go wrong with any of it.
