I don't see the point of using that much ivory in a butt cap if the cue is going to be played with. If the cue is just for show then maybe put on an ivory butt cap just to say you have it and increase the value of the cue, but I don't think they are practical on a cue you plan to play with. Ivory will crack and break if you aren't very careful with it. I've seen pro players and amateurs hit the floor with their cues rubber bumper and the rubber will expand into the butt cap and if it was ivory it would probably crack it.FAST_N_LOOSE said:Thanks Again Guys For The Kind Words

Quick question for you.
The forearm of your cue looks really white. Is it just the lighting, or is that actually the case. I don't know I've seen a really white piece of straght grain on a Tasc before. If that is the case, then this cue has another unique quality!

Beautiful cue you've got there Marcus. Good luck with it.
