Photos: Pro Player's "Grip"

I saw these cues next to a match in Reno.  I was so intrigued by what I saw, I asked the Pro Player later that week if I could take a pic of the grip/butt part of his cues!

Luckily he obliged, and now I have these to share with you all:




Yes, those are Wilson tennis grips you see!  He said the wrapping handles the deflection and absorption of the hits better without the grip wrapping (don't quote me on the exact words, please).

You can see the Pro Player in action, from these great shots from Bob Beaulieu (click to enlarge):

Tennis grips used on pool sticks!?! I never would have thought about that. I wonder what else you can use tennis grips for...
