Opinions needed!!!!

Dennis Orcollo is one of their player reps. He's a great player. He can, however, play with a broomstick with a leather tip and beat most players out there. So, to all of my human, everyday, salt of the earth pool players, what do you think about the Tiger LD Performance Shafts?

I've hit with Predator 314^2 and OB Classic. I've never hit with a Tiger. What are the opinions out there?

Howdy Kaptivative, there are so many posts about the subject,

Lets take LD cue (high squirt CB cue) this cue is good for english shots that have stun or near stun with english, most likely the CB deflection even out with english for most shots that are say 4 to 5 diamonds separation between CB & OB, in another words you can aim at center of pocket for stun with english; for no stun rolling with english this cue will always under cut (for outside english) and over cut for inside english - and have to adjust aim a lot. (shots have to be hit hard to cancel swerve effect)


Now HD cue (low squirt CB cue) is opposite to above, you can aim at center of pocket, or within the pocket with rolling english (fast shots); whereas stun with english will over cut OBfor outside, and under cut for inside english


Bottom line, there is no perfect cue for both jobs, so if you are 9 ball player maybe the LD cue (high def CB) is better, for one pocket soft shots, the HD cue (low deflection CB) is better


One last item, depending on the tips of english used, you can have the LD act as if it is HD

Good luck
