thanks torqiet...i'm currently using the old shaft...the cue plays very solid...has a great feedback...very stiff...which i really liked...most importantly i'm very comfortable and happy playing with it...for now...

...this replaced my masonH which has been my player for almost 2 years...
 
would you help us with a honest review with this cue....i personally have a interest with Al bautista cue....
Right now got Jeff Olney...Cory Barnhart....Keith Josey and Last A Sugartree..

They all Plain jane...and i try to offloaded some for a Big Fancy cue....

right now... i'm very comfortable with my sugartree....this is absolutely a great player....but...Josey and Barnhart also great player....Olney..good also:smile:
 
thanks Trav, Clint & Realizm...the cue is really very simple and looks much better in person...

Dedy...the cue was made to my specs...with woods that i've provided...it has that crisp solid hit that I liked...a bit forward balance...works well with me on the table...and happy playing with it...I guess that's one of the most important thing...

Is the bottom shaft your own material? I like the shaft's yellowish color.
Well if yes the shaft's stiffness contribute to the solidness of the hit, noting the mason's micarta ferrule too
Just my opinion
Well try the other shaft too and give us an honest opinion

Btw nice simple PJ and wood combo
Thanks

Hi Joyren...hope to see you guys in 2 weeks time...

Yes...the yellowish shaft was supplied by me...and that's the one that I really used with the butt as I'm not so much of an LD shaft fan...except w/ the wd700 that i have used with my mezz cue...

...I haven't really tried the other shaft as I'm already fine with the crisper and solid hitting shaft that I have supplied...thanks again...
