    Nothing against Parris just dont have that sort of dough, everyone could always do with another inch eh?

    A good suggestion there thanks, but i have come across a few of these mass produced cues, and i need something thats as good as my Kevin Muncaster or better otherwise i think it would be pointless.

      Im in a bit of a pickle, im not playing to well at the moment and im in two minds weather to try a new cue that is slighty longer at 59" or have mine lengthened. Ive had my cue for 15years and its a love/hate relationship at the moment, i love the weight and feel of it but im constantly feeling that just another inch on the end would help me as im 6ft 2in and have long arms.

      So do i leave my cue alone and try a 59" or get my old faithfulish lengthened?

      Cheers all

                If its busing it to the next city for better conditions and players or driving 4hrs to the other side of the country for a coach or even to get bashed-up 4-0 in a tournament.. Its gotta be done, no short cuts

                  I'm not sure where you are from but Del Hill's the man if you need some coaching :snooker:
