The McDermott H653 is a wrapless cue for players who love the feel of wood in the hand and want a fine‑tuned hit. Like the rest of the H‑Series, it features the Variable Balance Point (VBP) system: a carbon‑reinforced core with an internal rail that lets you move weights forward or back. That lets you customize both cue weight and balance point—from more forward‑weighted for breaking through racks to more rear‑weighted for soft, precise position play.

The cue uses a natural Birdseye maple forearm and sleeve with six bocote and black urethane points and matching bocote details, plus double silver ringwork. The handle itself is solid bocote with no wrap, giving a smooth, direct connection to your stroke. It comes standard with a G‑Core performance shaft, Pro taper, Navigator Black Medium tip, 3/8"‑10 joint, and a lifetime warranty that includes warpage—a serious performance package wrapped in a custom‑style look

McDermott, Stinger, and Sledgehammer cues come with a lifetime warranty that covers manufacturing defects, including warpage. Register your cue and learn more about the warranty details by visiting the McDermott Lifetime Warranty Page.
