Mike Wooldridge - *NEW* 'BlackSpin' Ferrule System

[CoolBlue]

Can't wait to get my TW cue back tomorrow.. have to work tho :/

So may not be able to pick it up from the Post Office until Thursday. Will post a review as soon as I can have a knock with it.

got 7 black spin today. Even though didn't have enough time to play only tied about 30 mins. too many people asking and looking my cues.
But the benefits are incredible.
Hitting balls like hitting tennis with the sweet spot of the racket. Brings more feel when you hitting the cue ball.
feels the cue holding the white longer and much more control with black spin.



Wil spend more time this weekend and take pictures and write more reviews.

This is the thing can improve any cue. it's unbelievably good.

Mike what tips are you fitting to your new cues ?
Also how will I be able to differentiate the Legend I
have on order with you from the other models you make ?
Cheers.

Superman32 would you be confident breaking with a blackspin ferrule and doing high swerve shots?

[eaoin11]

i am very low on original stock of shark with no immediate plans to do more in the near future as i am backed up with legend and custom orders.

there are a few standard ones left to sort out but i've not had time.

the deluxe ones have superb shafts that are likely better than anything else you'll see.

actually i made a mistake and should have kept these back for custom orders...

with regards to differentiating between models sold, i am considering ideas at the moment.

although, it is reasonably obvious when you look at a deluxe shaft on account of the very even patterns and clear lines.

also, regarding pricing, to try to keep ahead last year, cues were finished up (oiled stage) and ready to go, so any changes involved a big job and cost extra.

now, i am more organised and am almost exclusively working on part made stock individually, so it makes no odds what sizes i go to.

if that makes sense...

I can understand that, thanks for the clarification.

Well that's it sent off. For the first time ever I was being quizzed about the tube length, apparently royal mail are cracking down on long items being posted. Didn't have a saw handy so just posted it as a 1 piece, even though it is jointed through the splices.

[Steve748]

That's why it is better to send it courier with no limitations on length, it's cheaper and they collect it from your door.

I would suspect that the tips have been thoroughly tested after a lot of R&D so they are suitable for the purpose they have been designed for!

yes but they keep losing them and insurance costs a fortune.

[Steve748]

I have used couriers for years and never had anything go astray. Problem is cues are too long for Royal Mail now unless they are two piece cut in the middle.

currently costing me 4-5k a year in losses.

What I mean't was, if you were to place a Legend next to plain Shark how would a layman tell the difference ?

The splice would be a pretty obvious thing to point out

you need to read my website and look at the pictures.

unless i'm missing something, i think i've made it crystal clear there...
