I have put a couple of months on them and they are playing playing better then I had hoped for.
Specs are, 31"- 29 1/2" total of 60 1\2", my wing span is 6'6", tried and didnt like the mid cue extension. I had the wrap move 1\2" back so it plays like a 61". I went old school so to speak and had the shafts made with a slight conical taper. BEM forarms on both, shooting cue has 4 splice gabon ebony points( This point work is stunnung, no gaps, glue lines, some of the best I have seen frankly). Gabon ebony buttsleeve with a iv*** hoppe ring. Iv*** ferrals and a buckhorn ferral on the break shaft. Break cue is the same but no points. Can anyony guess the cuemaker?? 670779986~2.jpg20220623_164045~2.jpg20220623_164123~2.jpg20220623_164245~3.jpg20220623_164250~2.jpg
I am very pleased with how they turned out, I would recommend ********* **********. Paid homage to Tad with the "Tad" wrap( it is Irish, no Corland to be had, except STEEP price, to steep for me 😂.) I did have the points made 2" longer to match the extra 2" in the forarm.
So, who do you think made these cues(no, they are not for sale 😂😂😂)

Are you saying the forearm is 32" and the shafts are 29 1/2? if so that's 61.5 a big cue nonetheless but your math is off a bit. Like the extra long points and BEM. (y)

Sorry, you are right, thank you for pointing tbat out. The forearm is not 32", the whole butt section is 31"( I wanted 32", must be why I still think it)
