I’ve been playing with the same predator road line cue forever so I wanted something different. First I wanted a p3 racer but couldn’t find one anywhere. Then I decided I wanted this with a wrap which was sold out every where except a web site I never heard of called cheapcues.com. I’m usually hesitant to buy from online companies I never heard of but I really wanted this cue so I took the chance. They offered free shipping and I got to say they had it to me quickly and there communication was excellent and it was well packaged. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again. As for the cue it hits like you expect. It came with a 314/3 shaft. I’ll be selling that. I really don’t need it. The rubber grip is a little different but I like it.
