Predator Z3 wobble

Could you let us know what store it is?

Yes. Its Nielsens / joerackem, they are excellent. Ive bought a few other items from them in the past.

How are you liking the Z3 compared to the Z2? Is there a big difference?

might be a little early to tell. If you ask me now, id say they're the same. lol

Joerackem/Nielsen gets an A+ in customer service. Never had nor heard of any issues with those folks.

I found the Z3 to be so much stiffer than the Z2, it was a little difficult to get used to. But then I changed up the tip. I had been using the stock tip that came with the Z3 (Predator Medium), I typically use a G2 soft or a Kamui SS. Switching up made all the difference in the world. There are still some noticable differences imo, ie- the Z3 to me is more reminiscent of a solid high quality maple shaft, but the feel and feedback, to me, is excellent.

IF's

It really could be dozens of things that could possibly make the cue wobble when is put together.

Only a lathe is going to allow someone to really be able to trouble shoot it for you.

I read that other members have suggested that you take the cue to a cue repairman.
I think that is very solid advise and it would be interesting what the problem is.
Good luck.

I have a 30 inch Z2 and a 30 inch 314-2 that Jim Baxter made me from blanks that couldn't roll any truer (thanks, Jim).
