First correction, you can get a White Carbon all the way up to 12.75 (I have a 12.75 and they {Predator} said 12.75 is the highest they go). I was just at the Billiards Expo in PA. I spent extensive time at both Bull Carbon and Predator's booths. I practiced with both shafts and assessed both "systems" and how they work with nearly any butt PIN. Here's what I determined. The White Carbon shaft is superior in all ways. First, the pin has a LOCKING LUG (nut) at the back of the pin. This keeps the INSERT from moving around AT ALL, then the smaller bolt inside screws into the shaft. The Bull Carbon insert just threads into the SHAFT. It can become loose, and most importantly, if it does become loose it can DAMAGE the shaft and threads because the shaft is very thin where the insert goes. The White Carbon shoots extremely well. It has no deflection... no anything. It feels like it's a magic stick that does EXACTLY what you MAKE it do. The Bull Carbon shot well, but had more feedback after striking a ball which means it's DOING things the White Carbon is NOT doing.... like vibrating, deflecting, etc. If the White Carbon was priced at 1,000 dollars, I would happily pay that price now I know what it does.... which is NOTHING (no physical feel feedback), meaning it's PERFECT. It is by far the best single piece of equipment that has greatly improved my ability to run balls and win matches at my local APA league. I've only lost two matches out of my last 9, between 8 ball and 9 ball league nights. The matches I lost were VERY close. My typical outcome of 9 matches would be in the 40-50% win rate. Now I'm at 78% so far this season and players my skill level are DODGING me now. I HIGHLY recommend the White Carbon shaft. I think they are 600 + 68 for each insert. For what it's worth.

Fyi, there is no such thing as a no deflection shaft. All shafts will deflect the cue ball to a degree with sidespin, particularly at higher speeds.

@@VetteWay2Fast no shit. We’re talking about a center strike. And worth mentioning, even the predator Z shaft (which stands for Zero deflection) will have very small measurable deflection on a center strike with no english. The white carbon is even less than that.

@@VetteWay2Fast I must have a definition of something wrong. I’ll figure it out and post back. The point is that I find this shaft incredible and far beyond any other shaft for any shot/game I play.

What diameter you use? 12.75?

Thanks for this review. Could you also test Whyte Carbon Wood Grain carbon fiber shaft please? I am curious about the sound it makes when you hit the ball with a stroke. I am using revo shaft and I really dont like the metalic sound.

Brandon I hope you do a deflection test on these I like to see it Cause I don't know if I'm interested in bull carbon or a revo

I would highly suggest the White Carbon. It is a perfect shaft in my opinion, which doesn't mean much, but the shaft has been a HUGE game changer for me. I own a Revo for my Predator butt and played with it for a while. The White Carbon blows away the Revo in all categories for me. I also extensively tested both the White Carbon and Bull Carbon shafts at the Billiards Expo in PA recently. I ended up buying the White Carbon over the Bull Carbon because it's just BETTER... in fact I think the shaft is PERFECT and the best shaft available. Good luck

Who is doing the talking in this video? I hear more and more videos with a voice like this. Is it a program doing the talking from text?

This video was made using an Ai-powered voice over. My cameraman did the recording during a day when I was busy helping customers in the shop. At the end of this video, you can actually see me in the background by the cash register of my shop.
