Wood to Wood Joint
Last night a cuemaker showed up at our local pool tourney and laid out his collection of custom butts on one of the tables - a beautiful assortment. There were no shafts so I asked about the connection. I was told that all the cues had wood to wood joints. I took this to mean that the pins screw directly into wood threads. Is that the case? And, if so, how durable is this type thread as compared to piloted joints?

I decided to upgrade my bar cue, so I got myself an Elite EP01 - Birdseye with Cherry Ebony and Nickel Silver Rings Pool Cue Stick.
I figured I'd try it because it has a wood-to-wood joint. A $108 cue, it hits better than my Falcon SP that cost twice as much. Last night, first time out, it helped me win a local bar tournament. When I'm ready to move up in class, I'm definitely going with the w2w joint. |

I don't feel like I can feel anything without a steel to steel joint.
