I switched from a Z2 to an OB2+ and it was similar, a tiny bit less whippy. I then went to a Revo 11.8, then switched games and now use a Revo 3C-U with a BK Rush butt (per recommendation of poolmanis). I also have a custom made 11.3 PDB OB Cues carom shaft.
These are the only cues I have ever really used as main playing cues and they are both very good.
No I was not a top player of that time just a good shortstop that played 14.1 pretty good.
I had a good day and ran a few racks for the win,thats all.
For those that knew Neptune Joe Frady's speed I played him 9 ball getting the 8 and we battled pretty good.
Joe played me 100 to 80 in 14.1.
If you want a consistent, solid tip, these are the way to go. There is something about triangles, when you get one, you like. They play amazing well, i agree too, tips today are way overpriced. Nothing wrong, with staying with what you know works!!
The marketing in the pool world has been certainly evolving. Pretty sure you can buy a $50 tip.
Preditor is the king of marketing.
You can easily get a custom designed cue of your choice from a cuemaker in a collaboration together for less than some production cues offered at any number of billiard web sites. Of course you won't get the instant gratification of having it arrive at your doorstep in a week or so and I'm sure Predator realizes that.
That being said, I'm happy people are spending money on the game. I think interest in pool is growing and that's a good thing. They haven't yet realized that it's a stupid game played by stupid people. Hahahaha
his legs must have blood clots though.
