Anybody have a REVO paired up with a butt containing no black? Curious how this looks on a cocobolo or rosewood sneaky.
 
If you guys were designing a butt to specifically go with a Revo shaft, how would you do the joint and collars/rings on the butt, considering the shaft doesn't have any?

Alternatively, have any of you seen if a cue maker has been able to put collars on a Revo shaft to match the butt? And does the Revo shaft hold a finish for the last few inches if a cue maker did put on custom collars?
 
damn some of those set ups look like billiard cue assault rifles

that REVO black is workin!

I feel it helps with aiming. The long black line works for me. I think The REVO looks good on any butt... black or contrasting woods.
 
Got two player/break setups.

I can see that Ed had no interest in matching the rings. The Revo shaft, I have hit a few balls with.

I think they are really ugly.

I believe Busty just won master of the table at Derby City, playing with a regular old maple shaft with a standard ferrule.

I do want to disclose that I've been playing with a Tiger LD shaft which is 11.75 mm at the tip.

I hang that off my SW cue and I did get them to match the rings.
 
Placeholder for when my contact gets more 12.4's in. I just Mike Webb swap the pin from 5/16x14 to Uni-Loc and it came out perfect. I'll post more pics when I get the shaft and attach it.

Current set up

Here's my current set up...

It's temporary as I'm having a butt made for it by Jeff at AE Cues. Can't wait for that, it's going to be California buck eye burl nose with a linen wrap all the way down to the butt cap, pure player.

Right now the butt is my Ice Breaker 2, it's all that I had available that would fit the radial pin 12.4 revo shaft.

Ed had nothing to do with the Revo shaft. I bored, plugged, and retapped 3/8x10 myself.

And who cares what Busty won the Derby with....what does that have to do with a Revo shaft? He's been playing with traditional maple shafts his entire life.

I've said it a million times before and I'll say it again. Low deflection shafts are not necessarily better or worse than traditional shafts, however, I strongly believe that eliminating or reducing variables has a direct effect on the TIME it takes to improve.

It's just common sense folks.

Efren/Busty/<insert your favorite pro> have spent thousands of hours on the table getting to know their equipment and how much squirt and deflection are transferred at various speeds and stroke styles.

With newer technology, a player can improve quicker because there are fewer adjustments needed. Is a shaft going to turn you into a pro? of course not!

Busty at one time did play with the predator shaft. Many pros were given those shafts.

Efren beat everybody in the world with a twelve dollar cue made in the Philippines.

I can't dispute what you are saying but I will say the revolution shafts to me are ugly.
 
Looks like this Carbon Fiber Technology is really here to stay in the pool world.

Seems more and more top guys are now using it.

I have always just liked the old school traditional maple shafts, but keeping an open mind towards new things can't be a bad thing imo
