Joint, shaft or butt?

Suggestion ...

Sell it, and get you a custom cue to your specs given
what you can afford... First, make a trip to a custom
cue maker close to you, and that has a good reputation,
and look at his cues. Stroke a few you like, and feel
the balance and stroke. Listen to his suggestions.
If not pleased all the way, go visit a 2nd cue maker,
and do the same thing. I shot with Huebler for 25 years
(and some others that I won) before getting a custom cue,
and wish I had done it years before. It was one of the best
decisions I have made, and I considered it an investment.
If you can't find any like you want for the money, and are
a couple of hundred short, I feel it is worth it to borrow the
little extra to get exactly what you want. Besides, you can
always make the $200 back with the new cue.... lol

Thats a very good and sound desciption... I have owned several Meucci's, the only one I didnt like had a stainles joint... I prefere Schon, for various reasons but if you "roll the balls" a Meucci is a very good cue.. no doubt there...

That was my opinion of mine as well, but the 7 on our APA team shoots exclusively with a Meucci and although he's got a good soft game, he uses plenty of English and draw, and has excellent control.

Remember me?

That was a prehistoric cue that I have bought in Netherlands like 12 years ago. About 5-6 years ago that was only cue I had and I was also breaking with it untill I broke it.

Do you know who I am? We used to work together and play together.

I'm sure you are from Memphis, but not much than that. There was quite a few people that I worked with and your screen name is not telling me anything .

By the way, my suggestion is to have a cue made. I just got a Josey that I like alot. Madden is making me a cue as well.

Here are his words:
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,It may not change the way your Meucci plays as much as you would like. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, "

ok....."as much as you would like"

THAT,,,i would not know.
it is a compromise you have to be willing to make. he is saying don't expect the predator on your meucci to hit like a predator on a schon etc etc

Hey

I quit for a good while and just took it back up last November. It is a hard game. You were right to play straight pool. A pro asked me last week what my high run is and I could not give him an answer.

Hope you are well. You seem to still be into it.
