His cues play great, his finish is excellent, and I agree 100% that he is a great guy to deal with. If I didn't live 20some hours away I would have stopped by to visit a long time ago.

George,
I've heard that using a tip-pik might cause delamination problems, but if it works for you I guess maybe it is OK.

The playability of a cue will be most affected by the 'front end'. The shaft: taper, weight, ferrule, and tip contribute a lot to the way it plays. The butt and especially the joint will affect it as...

I don't think anyone is blaming you for anything. I know I certainly don't. It is more than reasonable to expect you to be busy with family issues. Your priorities are the way they should...
