Gorst @ #1 , No surprise there.

My mrs got me one of those machines this past xmas, I was surprised how incredibly quick it gets spinning. When we 1st tried it out, it got up to full speed & were both looking at it go & she said, holy hell ,I sure hope that cover dont pop off or we're fkn doomed. 😁

Perhaps a homage section that highlights each Pro Hall of famer/road warrior thru their own individual threads . Starting with their bio, then their titles/ accomplishments, and lastly some inside stories about their character out of the public eye, their side hustles, and behind the scene money...

No offense taken. I enjoy trying out different cue shafts, and comparing them. I view your post as recycled rhetoric, nothing new I havent already heard. Even if you were offering new info , Id still take your opinion with a grain of salt, fact check it & form my own opinion .

Im sure it works with either of our methods, just a matter of preference is all.

Id aim a Half tip right, 1& a half tip from below center for draw. 14-18" Bridge length, stroking completely thru the shot , a notch or 2 above medium speed.

@garczar I understand where youre coming from, although I used the word cheap, in the literal intitial definition of the word, wasnt intended as a slight. Also I agree , well known brand names are over charging, perhaps 100 over a rhino price is justified, but 200 ,300+ is greedy as hell.

To me they play like a revo only with a little more feel. The closest I think youll get to a maple feel in a cf shaft Is the Tiger Fortis, then Prime or Engage. Kielwood is a good in between a quality maple and cf shaft. Also even with Cf shafts the tip plays a big part in the feel & sound, so...

@SSP Im aware of that via meucci yrs ago, Im referencing which cause less.

@garczar I dont own the mezz ignite, but Ill take your word for it When vs'ing Rhino. I agree with you on the z2-3 shafts having very low Deflection. Paired it up with my revo 11.8 and they deflect nearly the same, more power for revo, more feel with the z shaft . Ive used that same method in...

@garczar yes ,I have tested them multiple times , being I currently own nearly all of them. The rhino is a good shaft, but its more deflective , not by a major amount, but there is a difference. @DeadStick revo12.4 ,11.8, both fortis ld and pro

@DeadStick good info,, Anytime I test deflection , I adhere to Dr.Daves methods / recommendations.

Good shaft for the price, there is a difference in deflection that becomes more prevalent the harder the stroke is. The shaft plays good, but is still a step below bigger name brands particularly revo, engage, fortis. The price makes up for that to an "extent". Rhino wouldnt be my 1st ,2nd or...

Ive been doing sessions pitting against all my other cf shafts, while vs'ing 9 ball ghost ,for 2-to-2.5 hrs per day, since saturday morning. Im trying to find the the downfall with the rhino, comparing it to the engage , fortis and revo . Alternating shots between rhino and one particular high...

How do them proto revos play compared to predator revo ? Any difference in deflection, power or stiffness ?

Wonder if the chinese company manufacturing the rhino shafts, is also manufacturing more reputable brands carbon shafts?. 🤔

Its my understanding that a 3/8×10 pin can fit a shaft joint thats 3/8×10, or 3/8x10 modified. However a 3/8x10 modified pin typically fits 3/8×10 standard either slightly tight or can leave a 1/4" of a gap. So the short answer is , it may fit tight or wont go all the way on the pin that's a...

Out of curosity ,What shafts do you own ?

Excellent review, thx for the insight ..
