Ferrule "feel"

[PoloBob]

I cracked my 2nd ivory ferrule, and in light of current laws, I believe it would be less of a hassle to simply replace my broken pieces with a synthetic material.

I have shot with PVC and Aegis. They both seemed too soft for my taste. I wasn't satisfied with the feedback.

Searching through different options, I think I've landed near Tiger Saber T and/or Ivorine4. If I understand correctly, both of those products are relatively close to the same hardness as ivory. Is this true?

From what I have gathered, Tiger Saber T ferrules are slightly less hard than ivory ferrules, while Ivorine4 ferrules are just harder than ivory ferrules.

I'm not sure if my cue's details are pertinent, but it is a 29" 12.75mm Nitti shaft (radial) with a Kamui Clear Soft (black) tip.

Thanks for reading.

I have found good luck using a cue ball for my ferrules. If you can find a cue maker near you that can cut one down and install it you may be surprised with the feel of it.

You can still get your ivory ferrule replaced with ivory.
