    most people would be happy with a forward weighted cue like that

      Forward weighted cues are popular? What balance you are talking about?
      mind control > body control > cue control > ball control

          if you have a 19-20 oz cue and you cant feel the weight in the butt it means its in the middle of the shaft,rest the cue on your finger and find the balance point,also just weigh the cue they might have stated wrong weight,

              i have an almost new cue craft marksman, dont know exact specs but it is near to your requirements, feels very butt heavy to me if thats what your after.

              Will be under your budget as well as being much better then the chinese one you had?

              pm me for pics and price.

                      I know, my question was what balance point is more popular, because you wrote most "most people would be happy with a forward weighted cue like that"?
                      More forward (18-19"), or more to the butt (16-17")?

                        if your cue is the weight you say and its balanced at 18-19 ins ide say that was spot on

                          ok thanks, but thats not what i prefer.

                          I dont like cues weighted more than approx 18,5 oz or with a balance above 17,5".

                          Would be interesting what other people think about this.
