Yeah, we wouldn't want to do that.
Look, the guy is clearly significantly "intellectually challenged".
I usually just walk away instead of trying to keep a debate going with those kind of people.
Or, judging by his posts he might be 6 years old at the most.

Forget which Revo thread I read it in but someone asked the Predator rep at the Expo & they said there are no plans to make the shaft available in any other pin size besides the 2 they currently have.
Seems like the best option so far is getting someone to make a mid extension like the balance right that would accommodate the 2 pin sizes.
Don't waste your breath. He's an angry old fogie who doesn't believe in new fangled technology or smart enough to understand the simple idea of what an abrasive can do ito wood. I guess he never used sandpaper. Lol If it were up to guys like him golfers would still be playing with wooden clubs. :wink::thumbup:
No Joey, that is the size of my carbon pool cue shafts that I was making.
The Revo has made inquiries go through the roof. Mine are not like the Revo at all and have been independently developed in 2004-2006. The J100 jump cue is a variation of my carbon cue shaft and is actually a LD jump cue.
Had to stop making them due to bad health. Hope to be making them again next year if my health improves to that level again.

I didn't watch the video yet but one way you could be sure the shots are the same speed would be to have a speed gun with a reason that is visible to the viewer.Thanks for the comments, guys.
In regards to my deflection test: the hits I do for these tests are consistent and the soft hit on the Z2 review is the same as the G-Core review is the same as the REVO.
I really do look forward to more players getting a chance to try this shaft out for themselves; I think it's going to change a lot of minds about playing with non-wood shafts.
Also, "airhead" is one word.

I hit with shaft a month ago. First predator shaft that felt really good to me. $500 for just the shaft is up there but I guess if you want the low defection and radial consistency and a taper you like then maybe this one is for you.

Be happy to bet what you want that the top amateur players who use aiming systems will score higher on pocketing tests than those who don't use aiming systems. Make a better comparison because aiming systems work for sure.

Yes. unlike Predator that comes out with a new Shaft every other week, TIGER has.....
Yes. unlike Predator that comes out with a new Shaft every other week,"We really mean it this time morons!", TIGER has finally made an improvement to their all their shafts, but specifically The ProX, the taper has changed to a longer conical taper going back to just a few inches from the joint, this along with going from an 11.57mm to a 12.0mm tip, Well if there ever was a sweet spot Tiger found it, awesome stiff hit with tons of action, I have been playing with A $400 30" Mezz ExPro for the last 6 months, I received an advance 2nd Gen Tiger Pro X shaft, I put a Zan Medium tip on it and have not picked up my Mezz since!The rest of you are just gunna have to wait!!!
Not sure when Tiger is unleashing this revolutionary shaft, no player or pro who has hit with it has remarked on the Zero Deflection, even on a 10' Diamond Table! Nothing! No detectable deflection to the human eye!
Plus the New Tiger Logo is a Babe Magnet!!!!!!
