Preferred cue length

[skiergd011013]

just seen this post..I'm right there with you. looking forward to trying 54" hopefully next week
knew about pat, but didn't know the dutchess was using a shortie? pretty cool
if I like the shape, I plan on also commissioning a custom, with an extension, as you mentioned
after you get yours and get a chance to bang around, let us know how you like it!

will do. Yup. If you look up allison fishers challenge matches on the sharkstream youtube channel from her visit to CT last fall, at the end of that video, she sits down and chats for ten mins or so. She talks about her 54" cue. She mentioned it somewhere else as well. Maybe a recent tournament. She said the trend is everyone loves and tends to go longer with cues, and she is doing just the opposite. She is shortening everything up, and she is feeling good with it.

I am only 5.8" but love a 58 inch cue plus 4 inch mid ext for a total of 62 inches

Funny you should ask this, we were just figuring out what would be a good cue length to use yesterday. 8 feet and a few inches seemed about right.
