    iv put this to one side for now along with a couple of others, but when i come back to it the priority will be to tweek it till it plays to its potencial.

    Yes but I think the long chunky ferrule and off set weight was holding the shaft back from performing on the table.

    Had a frozen should and have had to use a 57.5" and be a bit more compact to get comfortable.

    I wonder how many tall players don't use a cue proportional to their height and maintain a good standard (and I don't mean me!).

    Nice work again though mate.

    cheers marc.
