I'm 5' 8" and use a 59" cue (jacoby +314). Lately I've felt that the cue is too long for me. I feel that my grip for a comfortable stroke is at the very top end of the shaft, and sometimes, I just want to grip on the forearm instead.
The weighting of the cue, of course, doesn't really jive with this.
WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS?
I know cues usually are 58", but I really feel like my cue should be 4" shorter for ideal size. ... Is this even possible?
-Consider this: the "Trouble Shooter" - a cue made for different sizes for differnt heights of kids has a 52" cue for people that are 5'-5'9". Technically, I'd be using the 52" trouble shooter. I think that 52" is way pushing it, but I really think I could benefit from a 55" cue or something.
Let me know. This has really been bothering me of late,
Eric
