tell me how it would damage the cue regardless of banging around? than find someone who had a cue damaged by any case unless the case was itself damaged. the fuch do you people do with these cases, play baseball with them? most who play at home don't even leave the house, and the ones that play at halls go from their door to car, car to poolhall. where in that time span do you need an armored truck for a case? noone can seem to answer that except people who own a JB case, and I owned one, even had it custom made, didn't like it. theyre built well, workmanship isn't the problem, its just too much padding, too deep pockets, had cues get stuck and a pain in the ass to get out, now if you need to add materials inside to make it reachable and and get your cue out, seems like some backwards thinking to me. a lot of people had the same complaint as me, a little less padding and the ability to get your fingers to grip your cue to be able to come out would be a nice little solution. and ide love to see the long term effect on a cues finish from rubbing it so hard putting it in and out.
