My player is a SW's Purpleheart 9 pointers. 19.4oz, 13mm shaft with a Kamui MS tip.
It is the second one from the right.
My alternate player will be a Bushka-styled Tascarella. 19.7oz. 12.7mm shaft with Kamui MS tip.
Snookered <=== love the SW slightly more:thumbup:

Chris Nitti built.
Radial Pin ,
Ivory Joint ,
Ivory Ferrules ,
12.3mm ~15" Pro (hate that term) taper ,
30gpi old growth maple shafts,
Wizard Tip (This week
)
Don't usually break with it but depending on the game I have.
Other wise I have a Purple Heart Nitti , Radial W2W break cue.

I would rotate both of this cue as my main player for a certain period of time or if I go out of stroke
.But if i got a 13mm shaft for the Tascarella, it will become my only player. But right now, the Southwest worked for me. *LOL*
Snookered<== prefered a 13mm tip size.

The cue below is my player, I built the cue for myself earlier this year. The cue is a converted Titlist that was made in the 1940's according to the lable that was on it.
The cue is 59 inches long, and it weighs 18.7 oz, and the shaft was cut down from a early 1900's Brunswick one peice house cue according to the lable that was on thhe cue. The shaft pictured has 51 GPI and hits very sweet. I do not break with this cue, however, I do use a Break cue, and a jump cue that I also made.
Have a good night!!!!!

Schon and Petree
I play with a Schon STL-1 with a Petree shaft and a leather gator wrap on most days. If I have to rely on something though, I break out my Farris. That cue and I know each other real well.
This cue is old, old, but like my mac, it just works.
It's got an old titlist shaft and the other shaft is the one I use which is 12.7 and a home made milk dud tip. (compressed elkmaster) I generally don't like to play with a cue that weighs more than 19 oz.

While I tend to play with my Tucker mostly at home these days...my main player out in the bars, during league and some tournies, is my trusty old Helmstetter 86-06, which plays very much like my Tucker. And yes, I break very well with it!!
Not as fancy as many others' players...but it gets the job done!! :yeah:

Ivory ferule with Sniper tip.

I wanted to try the oversized cue for a couple months then I'll turn it down to .840" to see if there's a difference.

In works is a masse cue.
