    Time trying a cue

    Just an opinion... if you have a fairly stable stroke you should be able to have a good feel for the cue within a couple of shots. You probably need more time to go through a full range of shots to see if this is something you can get used to. After that you have to work at it to make it work...

    Meucci Cues

    Hi there Bob, good to see u here in the forums. Loved your old Meuccis – they were amazing. However, have seen more than my fair share of stinkers in the mid-late 2000s which put me off getting a Gambler eventually. However, good to see Meucci making a comeback, hope to try one from the current...

    The cue you WONT let go...

    Have the same sentiment as Timothy. have been using my predator (horror of horrors) for 4 years so kinda am stuck with it, despite having options in my mini arsenal. when push comes to shove i realise i value being able to play to the best of my ability, so the rest will have to go even though...

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    Actually, its very low deflection is its biggest differentiating factor. a lot of break cues can deliver power

    Fulltime cue extension really helped my game

    ... so many laughed at earl when he first brought out that super long cue years ago. god bless the man. he's come up with many seemingly crazy ideas over the years that actually made a lot of sense. kind of a genius in his unique way

    How do you Aim Off to compensate for sidespin

    Aiming systems applied with discipline will help those among us who struggle to find consistency. Regardless of your approach, you need a way to "burn in" your aim. Hitting a million balls does that. But if you are not structured or disciplined it may be two million, who knows. Aiming systems...

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    I measured the tapers.. they’re the same. Approx. 13.9mm thick at 14” point. The 12.9mm weighs between 109-113g, the revo weighs about 115-117g; from the couple I was able to weigh. If that helps.

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    on an unrelated note, what i understand is that there is a massive backorder (globally) for mezz right now. i'm not sure if the US is affected, but we're definitely feeling it over here. if you need to get anything important from mezz, pls do it asap.

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    Lol indeed. I get people who hate on predator for their prices and I agree fully that you can get better 'value' elsewhere especially when prices are edging into custom cue territory. But the concept of value is subjective and I think a lot depends on what you are trying to get for your money...

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    I find that a good question to ask people where their priorities lie is: if you find a break cue that helps you double up your break-and-run numbers, would you mind buying it even if it costs more than your play cue? Except if they own $60,000 Black Boars and stuff...

    New Predator Break Cue is out

    I bought one. I love tech and I think they're doing amazing work with these developments. I also own the 12.4mm and 12.9mm shafts. I'm not a fan of the price and I'd be the first to say that the value proposition is absolute bollocks. Furthermore I have no idea how long these shafts can last...

    More Affordable Predator Revo Cues

    agreed. if diminishing margin returns and cost is an issue, don't. if it isn't, pull the trigger, it'll probably be the most fun and cool pool tool (that works as advertised) you can buy this year.

    More Affordable Predator Revo Cues

    Hey Scott, on hindsight I should have worded that better. The reason why I said it that way is because I don't want to perpetuate the idea of a silver bullet, that's all. And yes, ultimately it's just my opinion – it is near impossible to be scientific about these things after all! Good to...

    More Affordable Predator Revo Cues

    I know that practically nobody here knows me so I understand if you think I'm talking out of my ass. Just found the conversation interesting enough that I decided to chime in. I bought a P3 Revo for fun, thinking at the very worst I'll be able to sell it without much trouble as there was...
