Light Weight Woods?

[Jack Flanagan]

I have a Ramin wood cue that weighs only 13 oz.

It started life a 2-pc bridge stick. For some reason I rolled it on the table one day and it was straight. I was bored and inserted a tenon and installed a ferrule and tip. I was surprised at how well it shot.

It's still fun to "lend" to someone who wants to borrow a cue. Most can't adjust to the light weight....lol.
