i could not find alot about the different brands
what brands are considered among the "best"
which ones have the lowest deflection?
this is not a thread to debate is carbon fiber shafts better or worse than wood
just would like to know players experience with various carbon fiber carom shafts
thanks in advance
 
I have a Longoni CF 3 cushion shaft. Plays great but i have a friend who has the Predator 3c shaft and i think it plays great as well.

Well, I have tried Predator, both std and stiff flexes, Becue, and mine of course. I was disappointed in the Predator shafts, though if you are a cross-over player they may feel more comfortable. The Becue and mine play very similar, with the proviso that my standard length is 2 cm longer. If mine is trimmed to Becue standard length, mine is certainly stiffer given that both are conical tapers. I must bow to Becue in one regard, you can order their shaft in a half-dozen joints whereas mine is of course only suited to my cues. I built a butt with the Uniloc joint to try the Predator and Becue shafts, it plays just fine. Of course I win the pricing contest, but only if you are playing one of my wood-thread cues.
