Forward weighted pool cue

1 . A forward weighted pool cue comprising:
 a reduced weight butt having an elongated tapered shape releasably connected at a joint area to a shaft having an elongated tapered shape such that the diameter of the pool cue decreases from the proximal end of the butt to the distal end of the shaft wherein the reduced weight butt is solid except in a cored area.   
     
     
         2 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 1  wherein the reduced weight butt and the shaft are made from wood. 
     
     
         3 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 1  wherein the shaft is solid and not cored. 
     
     
         4 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 1  wherein the shaft is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube. 
     
     
         5 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 4  wherein at least a portion of the hollow carbon fiber tube of the shaft is filled with a weighted material. 
     
     
         6 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 5  wherein the weighted material is located near the joint area of the pool cue. 
     
     
         7 . A forward weighted pool cue comprising:
 a reduced weight butt having an elongated tapered shape releasably connected at a joint area to a shaft having an elongated tapered shape such that the diameter of the pool cue decreases from the proximal end of the butt to the distal end of the shaft wherein the reduced weight butt is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube.   
     
     
         8 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 7  wherein the shaft is made from wood. 
     
     
         9 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 7  wherein the shaft is solid and not cored. 
     
     
         10 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 7  wherein the shaft is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube. 
     
     
         11 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 10  wherein at least a portion of the hollow carbon fiber tube of the shaft is filled with a first weighted material. 
     
     
         12 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 11  wherein the first weighted material is located near the joint area. 
     
     
         13 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 7  wherein at least a portion of the hollow carbon fiber tube of the butt is filled with a second weighted material wherein the second weighted material is located near the joint area. 
     
     
         14 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 13  wherein the shaft is solid and not cored. 
     
     
         15 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 13  wherein the shaft is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube. 
     
     
         16 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 15  wherein at least a portion of the hollow carbon fiber tube of the shaft is filled with a first weighted material. 
     
     
         17 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 16  wherein the first weighted material is located near the joint area. 
     
     
         18 . A forward weighted pool cue comprising:
 a reduced weight butt having an elongated tapered shape releasably connected at a joint area to a shaft having an elongated tapered shape such that the diameter of the pool cue decreases from the proximal end of the butt to the distal end of the shaft wherein:   the reduced weight butt weighs less than 12 ounces; and   the shaft is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube filled with a weighted material, the weighted material is located near the joint area of the pool cue, and the shaft weighs about 5 ounces or more.   
     
     
         19 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 18  wherein the reduced weight butt is solid except in a cored area, made from wood, and weighs about 11 ounces or less. 
     
     
         20 . The forward weighted pool cue of  claim 18  wherein the reduced weight butt is made from a hollow carbon fiber tube and weighs about 10 ounces or less.
