so... I had Rick Phillipi put on a new emarald last night and after 2 or so hours on the table when i got home last night... I LOVE the emerald!!!! I honestly belive i found my new tip of choice. Holds chalk great, effortless spin, and the feel is incredible! I have tried many tips in the past and will give you a quick run down of my thoughts on a simple 1-10 scale: LePro 5.5, triangle 6, french triumph 6.5, tiger M 6.5, tiger everest 7, kamuii SS black 6.5, tiger sniper 8, moori M 8... And the emerald, solid 9!!!
So, it appears that my reservations in trying another emerald were obviously unjust. I LOVE IT!!! So thank you to everyone who encouraged i give it another shot, much thanks to Rick, and to Mr. Baxter:
Jim,
HOLY CRAP... putting the new tip on this thing... I AM IN LOVE!!! I have to say, this is without a doubt the most gratifying cue i have ever played with, let alone owned!!! I have had some moderately expensive cues in my past, and have played with some VERY high dollar cues, and this one takes the cake, HANDS DOWN!
I am more than happy and wish that everyone could find the joy in a cue that you have provided me with. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
