Anyone have experience with McDermott I-Shafts?


I am looking for a stiffer shaft.
The last replacement shaft that I purchased from McDermott had quite a bit of vibration.
I want to reduce the vibration with a stiffer shaft. I have studied OB and Preditor shafts. They seem to be the same.
 
Mezz

you should look into the mezz shafts. I am currently using a wd700 and it plays great. From my understanding they all are stiff hitting with low deflection.
 
The OB has a better tailor, the taper, it's a killer piece of advanced technology for my money.
My personal preference, Predator or OB, the OB. - Holds the Bang Better.

I've used all 3 I-shafts and my preference is for the I-2. It's a quality shaft that comes standard with a Moori medium tip. You may like the I-1 better if you want a stiffer shaft. That one comes with a Moori quick tip. Using a cue with a G-10 uni-loc Radial joint pin will also make a difference. That difference has been quite positive for me.
IMO if you are willing to spend the money, all of the premium shafts perform well. It always comes down to personal preference in regards to taper, tip diameter, tip hardness ect....
I'm currently using an OB-1 with a Kamui Black super soft tip and it plays much bettter than I do!
