Hi everyone, Im asking you as pros for advise on my mate behalf. He is ex-snooker player and turn to 9ball recently and obviously looking for a new cue. Everyone probably would recomend predator with z2 shaft but his bugdet is only £100. He tried z2 shaft and is happy with it so maybe you know any "hard" cue shafts? Players maybe or cuetec or something else?
If you have got expirience in half budget cues please post your suggestions in here ;-) :-)

Players cues are quite nice, I've been using one for about 3 years now. Their low deflection shaft, while not quite up to the same standard as the predator shafts, is still very good, and if you can get a good quality tip on it (I suggest Kamui soft, but go for what suits your play style).

I think they might be going for around 120-140 quid, not sure off the top of my head, but they're regarded as one of the most solid brands at that budget. Would definitely recommend a cue from their HXT line

Edit: Accidentally posted 4 times cos I kept trying to refresh the page lol

Hope this helped :)

Thanks Hinge. Do you know any of the cues with smaller than 13 mils tip as he used to play with so small and is hard to play with so big.
