    I have to agree with the others, a warped shaft will never become completely straight again. Depending on the brand of cue, it may not be all that expensive to order a new shaft. Most manufacturers have websites where you could inquire about this. If this is a cue that you plan to have for a long time, it may not hurt to order an extra shaft for emergencies.

    It can be fix but would cost alot of money due to the process. Just keep in mind wood its a living thing and it will warp overtime no matter how expensive the wood is. The only way to prevent cue from wrapping is to used a graphite cues which is anti warp. Just get use to it as the like of Eddie Charlton whom cue is like a banana.

    Honestly, a warped pool stick is a useless pool stick.

    The only thing I can think of is to soak the stick in water and let dry while it is forced in the staightened position. It's a long shot though. Better get a new one.

    Turn it over and hit the person again with the other side of the stick just as hard as but not harder than you did the first time.

    Just kidding,

    I think you are out of luck unless you can try bending it back with your hands

    Don't even bother trying, a bent cue's useless, get yourself out and get a john paris even though it might cost a bomb if you are a serious player it's worth it, if not get a ronnie or jimmy BCE.

    The best thing to do with a bent cue is burn it or sell it to one of your mates for 2p.

    No good.. you either need to buy a new one, or else if you can unscrew half of it, you might be able to just get the top half renewed.
