I figure we have cues for shooting, jumping and breaking, so I have contacted the owner of "Pretty Straight Cues" and we have begain discussions for a new bank cue. My prototype, made of willow, is hitting about 45% of the banks. I believe braiding the willow will increase the accuracy. Do you think $550 is a fair price?

The secret to this is making sure to seal the cue with the melted fat of an Eskimo. The mystic properties of this shall remain a secret.

Thats sounds like a very Strong compound that could be virtually unbreakable.
Unless you're an Orangatang.

peach tree switches will work better than the willow imop....plus you can keep the willow to chew on when you get a headache (has naturally occuring asprin in it)

and scratch the eskimo.....and use bantha fodder instead

The braiding should be reversed if one shoots south of the Equator, due to the Coriolis effect. A form of double-braid should be employed when playing at those countries on, or near, the Equator. Just my opinion.
 
This sounds like a very sound and reliable cue design!!

Another thought... We need a triple tip for such shots. If you can create a tip that offers No English, Left English and Right English options... because bank shots often require you to be accurate on this, you could probably add another $50 to the sale price of your cue!!

If you apply the Triple Tip to the cue, you should be able to expect at least 70% of the shots to be accurate, instead of the previously stated 45%.

Adding "Swing Weight" to the butt for the occasional Last Minute English on the shots might even add another 5% accuracy!
