Predator tips

yeah, and there new chalk, anybody tried it?
according to only one (but loyal) customer who came to me with a Predator tip, it plays very good. I have dealt with it only during install, it cuts as smooth as a Moori, and the color is really something. It's even more yellow than pictured.
The only question I have about these tips is where they are manufactured under OEM conditions for Predator

You first wanted Ryan to 'chime-in', now apparently you'll settle for me?
Make up your mind, Lol.
Actually, you may get a better review from Ryan. I haven't played in 4 yrs now.
Also, I don't install any tips for Sey. They're all done in-house.
UPDATE:
I just returned from Seyberts where I was delivering some completed work.
I inquired about the new tips and even hit some balls with a Pred. demo cue.
The shaft was a Z2 and the tip was a Pred. Med.
It felt very good, a nice firm hit with all the action I wanted.
Draws good, runs good and again, a very good feel contacting the QB.
The one thing that they kept telling me was that in their opinion,
these tips play very much like the old Mooris and I will agree.
For the installer, they even cut like the old Mooris.
Another thing they mentioned was that they play true to their rating.
In other words, the Pred soft plays like a soft,
the Med plays like a Med. and the hard plays like a hard.
This is starting to wain into the area of subjectivity.
I'd suggest that you try one, then you'll know.

The new chalk is pretty good. I bought some three weeks ago and it's quite nice.
It's funny because no one will use it if I leave it on the table because it's clearly different. If they only knew.
KJ, its probably like the old Avis rent a car ad, we are 2nd because we try harder, LOL.
You and Ryan though cut right to the meat which is a great thing when either of you are called on. I like and admire that.
I don't know,,,,,Kamui has a pretty strong foothold still. I sell Kamui's at a rate of at least 5 to 1 over all other brands combined.
Hell of it is, I don't even play with Kamui's.

I agree completly
It might be a NC thing or just a wave but again this weekend I was asked by a local APA team to put on 5 new Kamui black super soft's. It seems that I only get asked for the black soft or super soft and the chalk.--Leonard
Hell of it is' I play with a Onyx.-- LOL

Same here friend,,,,,I play the Onyx also, very good tip. Kamui Black Soft is by far my best seller.
Indian Trails huh?, We should get together and talk one of these days, maybe shoot a little pool. I'm in New Bern.
Exactly what I was thinking guess all the Tip manufacturers want every one to buy their own lathes so they can install their own $21.00 + cost tips. It's starting to get ridiculous on the Tip cost for the cue makers and cue repairman on a Tip that probably cost less than 25 cents to make.
Sounds great
But I'm 4 to 5 hours from you between Charlotte and Monroe on hwy 74, but I do drive somewhere every weekend during the season to a dirtrack race. Any tracks near you, how about Elizebeth City or Elm City?--Leonard
