Appleton's new cue....??
- Thread starter garczar
- Start date
Kinda leaning that way myself.
I'm no pro, but having shot with Predator since the 90's, I find it so difficult to play anything else. I wonder how well he will adjust, as he's been with them since the beginning I believe.
This was posted by him on Facebook and it mentions his own brand of cues.

i thought i read somewhere he was going to come out with his own line of cues.
"Own line of cues" could translate in a variety of ways. The most extreme being, building the whole thing from scratch, ordering machinery, etc., and still hiring some talented cuemaker to actually make them. My guess though, in this case Darren could have been collaborating with some of the manufacturers, most probably based in China.
people tend to forget mezz.
What a cool name "Kinga Rauk"
Get better Darren

Last time I saw him, which was not too long ago, he was playing with the new budget Predator cue, and the shaft from that is not very low deflection when compared to say a 314-3 or a Z. The Cuetec LD shafts are about the same LD level so aiming would not really be an issue.
Thanks, Kinga rauk.
