Aside from improved cosmetics, are there any significant changes in the Sledgehammer II from the original?

The newer ones are shorter 57" compared to 58". Other than that it is all cosmetics. You might start to see a Mcdermott logo on them since they are going to be the main producers of the Sledgehammer II. They signed a contract with Mike Gulassey this past winter.
 
A friend told me that they were all imported and Mike just puts the butt caps and ferrules on. True Or untrue anyone know ?

Before the SH took off in sales I really couldnt imagine importing any piece of that cue. When it did take off, he probably did import some pieces only until he searched and signed Mcd....
 
SledgeHammers

I believe the economy Sledgehammers were imported. As far as I know, Mike made the RS and the MG Customs in his shop. I think McDermott will be handling the economy models from now on.
Purdman :cool:
 
Well, .5 mm is approx. .020" which is a lot.
Are you saying that you can't tell the difference between a 13mm (.513") and a 12.5mm (.493")?

Mike had said that when McDermott starts making them their lifetime shaft warranty was going to apply. I thought McDermott was already making them.
