the only hornbeam I have played with was very whippy

Everyone I've tried has been rock solid

well the owner did say he had "worked on it" and was proud of his efforts

no. they gave it to me good

From what Jason Owen told me , when making mine, you need very sharp tools,

which it does a good job of blunting as well ?

Nice job there . :snooker:

very nice looking cue that, how whippy is it (being hornbeam)? or maybe should ask, how would you rate the stiffness of the shaft?

I've only had one hornbeam cue and it was as stiff as maple, are you implying they are normally whippy?
