Cue makers on AZ

[Gerry]

Hi all you AZ cue makers out there, I'm looking to get a new playing cue made. After researching woods and narrowing down playing cues and woods in my collection I have a REAL good idea of what I want.

Pau ferro (sp) or Alves wood, 60" players cue, no points, but rings are good, hoppe ring in butt, with no butt cap maybe?, non-stainless steel joint with big pin, Irish linen wrap, 2 shafts at about 12.75, weight not as important as a slightly forward balance.

Thats about what I'm loooking for. I'm open to ideas or maybe you have something like that in stock?

thanx, Gerry

go take a look: select 'Cues' off main menu, and look at first cue listed:
It is pretty much what you want, except for wood desired and 2nd shaft for a real reasonable priice.

You may want to revisit the 60" idea (unless you're 7' tall). I think it's Joey Gold who won't make a cue over 57" because he feels it would hurt your game. Plus it may be difficult to sell a 60" cue. I would suggest that you consider a 59" cue instead.

You sir, are correct. My personal playing cue is 57" and shorter cues do indeed play better. Many cuemakers are aware of this issue.

mmm... why do shorter cues play "better"? just wanna know the science behind it..
