I have a cue made by Brent Summers that is just amazing. It's a conversion from an old Brunswick house cue. First, the look, the finish, execution all excellent. It looks to be Macassar ebony, he added bacote at the butt end with a Hoppe ring. It has beautiful ring work that he makes himself. Radial pin at the main joint and where the jump butt and main butt come together and all weighs in at 14.85 oz. It came with 2 shafts, one shooter and one break shaft. The shooting shaft has a tip that measures 12.84mm with a Micarta ferrel, Triangle tip and weighs 3.65oz while the jump/break shaft has a one piece G10 ferrel/tip combination and it weighs 3.68 oz. both shafts shoot great with a really great feeling taper.
The stick has a really nice balance and feels weightless in my hand. The hit is really solid, I like the crisp feel of solid maple shafts, this one does not disappoint. Hit is very subjective, I have tried most of the "LD" shafts on the market and I have gone back to good ole solid maple because I like the feel and feedback I get from them. That being said, try one from Brent Summers, you won't be sorry.
