i have had a 1st edition blak 4 for about 2 years with a 314/2 shaft. i dont have any experience with any other predators especially the p 3. the blak shoots pretty good but shoots even better after i changed to a tiger emerald tip.
only sticks i have had lately that i can compare against are vikings, mcdermotts, and a meucci gambler. the gambler is the only stick i have had that shot better than the blak. just got a philippi last week and havent shot with it enough to compare against the blak yet.
btw the blak has been my main player since i got it. traded the gambler for it.
I have shot with a P3 and I own a blk first gen 4. I would have to say the blk 4 shoots better. I have a 314 shaft on it. I do not care for the 314/2 that much though.
