    Keep up this quality and I'm going to break and ask to buy one of yours soon J6. I persuaded myself I was buying to a plan, and specific specs, and only one pieces....but the the 3/4 Travis I bought this evening would seem to suggest that I just like owning nice cues!

    Are you going to be selling, and what have you got?
    the two on the right are available. the one in the middle was the cue i used for clocking the colors on the colors thread and the other is my latest, ive done a cue review on both.
    unless someone takes it before i will be taking the latest on the right down from 58.5 to 58" next week

                        yeah i see it, though id need more time in the dust to make a proper judgment.
                        im using that tight grain rex williams cue at the mo and im liking the give in it.. would you say broad has less give?

                          dont know but i have found broad grain is quieter and sweeter hitting, just a preference really, each to their own

                            • Hi Guys

                              I just have to give a review to this one

                              I've been following this thread for some time now,
                              and was really impressed with the amount work & time Jason puts in
                              making cues & giving advice to people.

                              I've was not feeling confident with my previous cue , so thought why not drop him a line

                              After I gave the specs & design I liked, I immediately got a few options of cues Jason thought would be nice.

                              so
                              I just received this one yesterday, after in insane wait of 2 Weeks or so hahaha

                              all I can say it was well packed & looked fantastic when I received it yesterday at the office

                              so off to the club in the evening.
                              I could'n believe how well it played, I really felt like I couldn't miss a shot.

                              really strange the power that this thing generates is insane.
                              I've never had that before, but it just brought a smile to my face.

                              normaly I feel I need to give some extra power to get what I want (something I need to work on)
                              but yesterday I just floated them all in generating spin like there was no tomorrow

                              before I knew it it was 3 hours later, hahaha

                              all I can say if you are thinking about a new cue, drop jason a line,
                              he's more than helpfull and a true craftsman.

                              so enough of this ass kissing

                              cheers
                              matt

                              • Couldn't agree more Matt, on mine the finish is exceptional IMO, balance is lovely , perfect flex in the shaft ,just an all round great cue, if you are not a badge snob and want a player, get one of these.
                                This is how you play darts ,MVG two nines in the same match!
