Dear all pool players,
I'd love to get some of your thoughts about James White cues.

What's the hit similar to?
I'm eager to try one JW cue but since I don't buy as many cues as b4 I wanted to hear the feedback and then pull the trigger on buying one.

I like SW , DPK and Gina hit with ivory joint as well.

Thank you all on your shared thoughts.

Vass,
Jims cues hit very stiff. But he can adjust to just about anything you want. What I really like about Jim, is he is not afraid to experiment or build to specific customer needs. He will never tell you that he only does xxx joint and xxx taper. He is a true craftsman and "custom" cue builder. He builds to what you order.

I've owned 3 James White cues and I play with one now and i'd highly recommend his cues. The workmanship is as good as it gets and they play as good as they look. The cue on the right in my avatar is one of my James White cues.

His cues do hit stiff,and I like that. He had a cue at Valley Forge one year,just like a Palmer,with red plastic rings in the butt,man what a cue.

I have played with a James White, with a solid ivory joint with a 3/8x11 stainless steel pin. I like the balance, and the fact that the cue does the work to move the cue ball around the table without much effort.

I was looking to do some trade with another cue in the Derby, because I just lost and I was looking for an excuse. I tried many cues and none of them that I tried could move the ball as effortlessly as that James White. I traded it for a Franklin Southwest, but I wish I had held on to the James White. I really regret it.

nice hitting James White cue.

I bought one playing with it now, and having Jimes making me another one. Great hitting cue stiff but no so stiff hits very solid and firm. James White cue is going to be adding to my collection .

How did you get the "Master" title?

JMW hits a bit softer than SW or DPK, I think it par with Gina cue you and I've owned.

I got two .. one with ivory joint, lizard wrap and barbell inlay design and one with I3 joint, wrapless ebony handel and three shafts including one from Dennis Searing. If interested, take one or both.
