I am wanting to try an Ultra X 30 inch on my Diveney, due to the increased feel that seems to get lost with my 314-2. The predator is a great shaft for applying effortless spin on the cueball, but I like the feel of a more traditional shaft. The biggest difference I notice is when I use inside english with predator my CB stays online and regular shaft CB throws ball out. Who has the hook-up for an introductory price on a ultra X? Give me a reason to try the Tiger!!! By the way, I just installed kamui med softs on both shafts and will be cutting them off and going back to the best medium layered tip made-SNIPER! The way they grab and apply spin is in a class by themselves. Thanks for replies.:smile:
