OB 108 Series or Predator Ikon?

I have an OB-1 shaft and love it. As far as looks are concerned I like the OB with the curly maple butt, they are also made in the USA. Predator seems a little overpriced considering they are made overseas for pretty cheap. I feel that OB has better quality control because it's a smaller company. I suggest the Ob cue based on the fact that I have played with both shafts and cues.
 
You can't go wrong with the OB. Their customer service, product quality, and after sale service is top notch.

I have 3 OB-1 shafts and am seriously wanting to pull the trigger on their new break shaft.

I don't know much about Predator, so I'll leave that up to more knowledgable people.


Good luck in your search.
 
The OB1 & the 314-(1 & 2) have entirely different feels, and I think the OB1 provides more spin velocity, easier - meaning you can use a tip position a little closer to center for equivalent spin (a good thing). Personally, I'm using OB1's entirely now. I think the quality control & consistency has suffered with Predator products - though in fairness, I think they're probably beginning to rein that in. Predator has come to charge quite a lot more, especially in Europe, etc.
My recommendation would lean to OB1 but, again - it's a very different feel.
