Can't believe I read "There could be a very very very slight roll in the butt (same as a brand new southwest I played--I think it is the tables in my local hall, you will not be unhappy with this cue) that does not affect play in any way"

... why am I not surprised

I was surprised myself to verify that it was the tables and not the cue!!

I have experienced this myself. I met a guy at a poolroom that I had never played in to deliver two cues to him. We're talking $5,500 for these two cues (a Gina, and a Schick). I pulled them out of the case along with the shafts and layed them on a table. The guy who was interested in purchasing them started to roll them on the table to verify that the butts and shafts were straight. As he began to roll them they all looked as crooked as a banana! My jaw hit the floor and I nearly had a heart attack. I knew the cues were straight. I told him that there was no way these cues were warped. I suggested we take them to the next table and everything rolled perfectly straight. We tried them on another table and the same held true...straight as a string. The guy ended up purchasing both cues, but I was in a cold sweat for a moment.
 
Trades

Ive received many e-mails regarding trades. I am considering trades for the cue, newer black boar? Let me know.
 
Public Apology

I want to apologize to Duane and his friend Tim for the "roll in the butt" incident as it caused me to return a perfect PFD!!!
Sorry again!!!!
To all be weary of rolling cues on tables!!!! Get them on a lathe!!!
