I recently purchased this cue from Chuck here on AZBilliards. About a year ago I purchased one of Chuck's butterfly cues with a steel pin. Both transactions were perfect. And Chuck definitely stands behind his work. I need a couple of very minor details taken care of on the first cue. Chuck graciously took the cue, worked on it, and had it back to me in just a few days. No charge.
About this new Sapele cue. Obviously the wood pin is what makes the cue unique. As the shaft and handle get close together it really locks up tight. Then you essentially have a one piece cue. It feels just as solid as my favorite Hubler one piece cue. It does not have the harsh sort of hard hit. It feels solid with lots of feedback. You know it is almost impossible to really convey what a cue feels like. But this one feels real good. It plays better than many of $1000+ cues.
So, for $350 delivered I got a guaranteed cue that hits a ton with very nice Sapele and Curly Maple, a quality ferrule, and Moori tip. I doubt that anyone can beat that deal for an excellent playing cue.
Thanks Chuck.
