This leads us to another thing. I often get asked for Ash with a certain number of arrows or maybe for a very stiff piece of Ash.
This in itself is no problem as it is easy for me to select wood that suits a client's requirements. But, you should remember that it is the 'feel' of the cue that makes it unique.
Quite often, a shaft can look exactly how you want it to, but the 'feel' is not good.
