FORTIS Owners?

W

Its Wonderful! It's a louder shaft but I don't mind that vocal feedback at all, and the performance is best I have played with out of all the carbon shafts. If you have a revo or any very low deflection shaft you shouldn't need to adjust at all. The shaft takes parallel English very well, front hand English extremely well and back had English ( I don't use ) I'd say just as good. The feedback is better than the Revo, the performance is top notch, I have not one complaint with the shaft, it just feels solid and well made. Other's have said their shaft came in at 3.75oz mine is 4oz but it is well balanced and isn't a problem for me. The Fortis Pro 12mm is well worth the money in my opinion and I am very grateful for the price JoeRackem on eBay gave me! I have zero changes I want to do to it unlike all the other carbon shafts I have owned in the past.

Nice to hear such a positive experience. I’m thinking of getting a Tiger cue soon - I‘ve had a few cues retipped by them and they are good folks, it would be a nice feeling to use something made in Los Angeles, too :)
 
I agree! I think im going to get a full cue as well. I love the Jane on syberts! https://seyberts.com/collections/ti...ortis-pro-carbon-shaft?variant=43097270124742 Its gorgeous!

That’s a beauty! I did a walk around the factory with their owner, they have some amazing stuff there, a lot of zebrawood and some striking looking bocote.

I quite like their reverse forearm pattern Sneaky Pete’s, I’m going to get them to build me something like this, but with bocote:

That sounds like It would be hella fun! Both bacote and zibra wood have great tone to them should make for a great player. I was also thinking of potentially going the traveler series direction possibly.
 
I finally bought the Tiger ebony/zebrawood Traveler with the Fortis 12mm shaft. I must say it plays beautifully - compared to the Mezz Ignite I’m coming from it seems I have slightly better feedback and more control on the cue ball. It feels more accurate, but early days, need to live with it for a few weeks.
