    Am I crazy or 314-3 has higher deflection than 314-2??

    LoL I did the same thing, purchased the Predator Sport 2 with 314-3...and didn't like it at all...so I'm back at my Ikon 2 with 314-2. Don't hope too much, there is a big chance your friend will do the same as I did...for me the new 314-3 SUCKS...and this is coming from a Predator fan...

    Am I crazy or 314-3 has higher deflection than 314-2??

    Pretty sure it's not the swerve, the shots I tried I was shooting quite firm so not enough time for the swerve to influence too much...

    Am I crazy or 314-3 has higher deflection than 314-2??

Finally I decided to try a 314-3 shaft, I ordered it with the same Kamui black super soft tip, especially to have the same tip as before, in...

    How Would You Play This Layout?

    depends If I'm in attack mode, I would probably bank it and depending on the exact angle trying to draw the cue ball for position on the 7. If I want to duck, I would try to thin hit the right side of the 6 and froze it to the 8 ball, while controlling the cue ball with right english and...

    Most of your misses due to poor aim or poor stroke?

    what geno says...right eye placement leads to right alignment leading to good stroke Geno is right...everything starts with the eyes, if the eyes are placed correctly then the info sent to the brain is correct, which helps aligning the cue correctly, which makes the stroke straight. The eyes...

    Another CTE question

    I'm fine buddy, concentrating on the family, my kid...and once or twice per week a bit of pool :-) Speaking of aiming systems - was thinking to purchase Ron Vitello's 90-90 instructional dvds - did you purchase them? Any opinion?

    Another CTE question

    Wow :-) If you show these discussions to Shane, Efren, Earl etc. etc. they will laugh so much... Don't get me wrong I like aiming systems, but sometimes we are so over-complicating these things :-)
