We tried and tested a dozen different tube materials for our – X10Rs. We also tested over a dozen different glues before deciding which we would use. All the parts/materials are the best we could get or find.
All the tubes and glues and inserts are made in the USA. Every X10R is put on a lathe & machined for exact shape, size, and fit – they are also assembled in the USA.
The purpose of the X10R is to reach shots easily so you can stop “stretching” for those long difficult shots. Next time you play pool, think about how many times you couldn’t quite reach a shot.
When you can’t reach a shot you have to stretch – and often miss or come up short on your position for the next shot. (Keep in mind too, the X10R can be used with or without the rake)… So next time you can’t reach that long shot…
Stop stretching or reaching for the rake… instead… —> “Reach for your X10R”.
Just a little more info to help players who are deciding if they want to get an X10R to improve their game & to stop missing those long shots.
The “X10R” Team
PS: The “Bone” colored X10R looks really sharp in person, it has an off-white look like cream or the color of ivory, but we were advised to not call it ivory – hence our reason to call it “Bone”. In our opinion, it is the best overall color for a cue and looks great with any color cue – (it was also chosen by three players on the USA team).
