All of my cuestick from predator can easily get dent if I accidently hit the table side or corner just slightly. I noticed that is the outter layers that have digital prints on it or whatever...including P3 and Sport V2 or BK sticks

I don't have this problem with Lucasi ? Anyone else have similar problems ?
 
I do take care of them, just that sometimes when scouting out for the shots, we don't really look down at the cue butts to prevent hitting the table. I literally meant by just slight touching the table and not banging it. These minor dents are very annoying
 
One of my teammates is a hothead. He routinely hits things with the tip, the shaft, and the butt if he misses or scratches. Remarkably, I haven't noticed any damage to his BK Rush when I borrow it occasionally.

Finish is finish.
It might not be that you just banged it but the angle it's on when you hit it.

Quality is just not Predator's main objective, imo. I feel they market their name due to products (table) being used on the pro circuit, and quality is secondary. jmo

Has nothing to do with op hitting his cue on things and then whining about the dents. Its obvious based on his own words that HE is the problem not the cue. Any wood cue will get dents from table/chair/light hits.

So then a minor dents are common for used items as well ? Because it is virtually impossible to not slightly be hitting tables or chairs while focusing onto your shots and walking around

His Lucasi does not seem to have the same problem...

You don't take enough care. You said how you don't after the first line.

He's just tossing shit out. Unless someone did a scientific test on how cue denting happens i'm going with pilot error on this subject.

Of course you can play without hitting shit. BUT, they do happen. Part of pool. any wood cue if used enough is going to show what my buddy calls 'whiskey dents'.
