Slight wobble at the joint, but for a $22 shaft? Likely best you can expect. My birthday is coming up and i might surprise my wife by getting s new cue from her. She loves surprises.

This was exactly what I was missing from my bag. I was able to clean up the tips on my cues with ease and I noticed a big difference in my play.

As someone who plays on bar boxes often, I hate the heavy beat up cue balls you usually see. This cue ball is well worth the purchase for anyone serious about learning to play with better control. I immediately noticed a huge difference in how I play now that I have a proper cue ball and can visualize the spin on each shot.

Thank you very much for your detailed review, James! We truly appreciate your order and are very happy to hear that the cue ball made such a noticeable difference in your game. We are glad it helps with control and spin visualization, and we hope to see you again in the future.
