Wanted 59,5'' cue !!!

i dont know who you talked to.......but i was looking into 314 and z shafts awhile back and the place i talked to said they could go out to 31 inches on a 314 and 32 inches on a zshaft......i think it was seyberts.
If deflection is a concern I suggest a 30.5 inch butt with a standard 29 inch shaft. For taller people and deflection, odd sizes are getting more popular.
HOB:
Tell them to build the butt 29" long, but with a short butt cap. Then, after they send you the cue, buy a new long butt cap (you could even tell them to throw one of theirs in the box) and screw it on yourself. Haha!
Actually I am poking a bit of fun at you because I am really confused at why that 1/2" is posing a problem for you.... Do you measure to the end of the butt cap or the bottom of the bumper? That could be 1/2"....
I actually have an amazing Richard Black for sale that is 59 5/8" long. The price is $3600, but you would be the only kid on the block (or in the world for that matter) with a cue like this: one of a kind, retail value: $5k with documentation). Let me know if you want photos. Richard's cues hit like a dream.

Wanted a Predator but they told me they would not go further then 59''!!
They could make the shaft 30'' but the butt not longer than 29''
Anyone ideas?

Perhaps because Predator doesn't make their own butts. Just buy the butt from another place and get a 30" Pred shaft to it. Or even as Mr. Webb suggested on getting a 30.5" butt with a regular sized 29" Pred. shaft to it.
