Review on 🎱 Pure X Pool Cue Stick with Kamui Black Tip: Utilizing Low Deflection Technology and Choice of 12.75mm or 11.75mm Skinny Shaft - Introducing the HXT72 by Bryan Gallardo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Deflection has been significantly reduced. Good choice for the price.

This is a great signal. I bought an 11.75mm tip and it took a while for my game to adjust to both the smaller cue size and less sag than my previous racquet. It took me at least 3-4 weeks to settle down, but now I have more control and a wider range of English options. (I play mid-league. Both APA [5] and VNEA [8]) Cue ball 2/3 table length throw, straight shot, with 2 tips from the center (Front Side English) on the cue ball in low to medium power zero. While I usually prefer Kamui's ultra-soft tip, this slightly firmer tip has proven excellent and lasts longer. I have a feeling this wand will last a few years until I'm [7] or [9], maybe longer. I've tried some of my teammates' more expensive low-camber sticks and I'm not good enough to tell the difference. I went with the lighter 18.5 weight to cushion the bumps and was happy with that choice. The stick stayed true after being left in the car one day when the temperature dropped to -17 degrees Celsius. [No no I know] Reliable stick for the price.
