    Its odd in a sense that its not nomally something you see requested. Most people who prefer sighting down the side grain will already be accustomed to having the badge face sideways in their hand. Its also slightly odd that its like that in a stock production cue as opposed to a custom build. These days its basically standard practice that the ash grain lines up with the badge, i know that wasnt always the case so its either a pretty old cue or something that they did on request.

    I didn't know the competition was open to JCs and ITEs as well. I thought it was only an " inter poly " competition.

    Nope, I'm not that good yet. I just joined SP's school team not too long ago.

My friends all say its a very bad deal because the cue is already so old but I would like to say its a bargain for me. I paid $45 for cue, additional DIY butt, tips, addtional shaft and 2 case.

    I'm not that sure whether I'll actually like snooker that much thus I start off with something cheaper 1st.

    The cue that Jason Owen is making for me is like that. I have asked him to make it so when the adage is facing up, the arrows will be at 9 o'clock, as I like to have the badge side facing into my palm.
