Predator pool cue?

Posted by Geoff Arnold as Predator Pool Cue

I own a Predator, "Series 1" cuestick. When it came out, it had a cost of $420.00. What is this stick worth now?

Pretty good call Less than half A mass produced cue does not hold its value .once its chalked it is used dont get me wrong idea they are D good sticks they just dont hold value very well.

A one off collectors cue is diffrent .But a run of the mill is just that
I always wonder why any jointed Cue is suddenly a Custom
they make hundreds of the very same ones May put that on Lea's List.

Who sings this and what is it called?

Posted by Geoff Arnold as Custom pool cue

I heard a country-western song in which a pool hustler got out-hustled.  In the song, the super-hustler says “I only play off the wall with friends”, then goes out to his car to get his custom pool cue.

Where can I find a Predator shaft for my Pechauer pool cue?

Posted by Geoff Arnold as Custom pool cue

I have a Pechauer PS03 pool cue with a Pechauer 317 speed joint and I would like to purchase a Predator 314-2 shaft for it. I ordered one that I thought would fit but it was meant for a fully threaded shaft,not a speed joint like mine. Where can I find a 314-2 shaft that will fit my cue? I have looked at what many different online retailers offer but none of them seem to have what I need. Would I need to have a joint custom fitted to the Predator shaft? Thanks in advance for the help! BTW,here’s a link to a description of my cue: http://www.billiardwarehouse.com/cues/pechauer/pechauer_pool_cue_ps03.htm

Just contact Pechauer and they should be able to put one of their joints on one for you. Predator sells blank shafts for that very reason. And I’m sure that they will be able to help you out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pool hall cool!, January 2, 2008
Johnny was a poolhall hustler, one of the best, until he discovered how his manager Joe had ruined his life. he left Joe int he hands of some heavy-duty drug dealers and split the scene. Now he’s trying to go legit, save his relationship with his girlfriend Tara, and maybe even save his life. Johnny’s younger brother Danny is eager to follow in his footsteps — eager enough to find himself deep in debt to Joe, who has returned with a new poolhall protege. When Danny robs a store to pay back Joe, it’s time for his big brother to take his cue. The final game has a payoff that’s bigger than money, bigger than life, bigger than either player can imagine. Because somewhere on the edge of the 8-ball waits a man’s soul.

Martin Scorsese handles directing duties in this 1986 sequel to the classic 1961 film The Hustler, which marks the return of Paul Newman to the role of pool shark Fast Eddie Felson. Anxious to break into the big time again, Eddie finds a talented protégé (Tom Cruise) to groom; but with the addition of the latter’s manipulative girlfriend (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) and the wild streak in Cruise’s character, the trio make for a fascinating portrait in group psychology.

The Hustler (Two-Disc Collector’s Edition) (1961)

5.0 out of 5 stars You Can Bank On This One…., October 24, 2002

5.0 out of 5 stars Do The Hustle: Newman Makes Fast Eddie Felson A Hollywood Legend, April 5, 2007

5.0 out of 5 stars Pool would not exist without this film., October 22, 2008

Paul Newman shines as cocky poolroom hustler “Fast” Eddie Felson in Robert Rossen’s atmospheric adaptation of the Walter Tevis novel. Newman’s Felson is a swaggering pool shark punk who takes on the king of the poolroom, Minnesota Fats (a cool, assured Jackie Gleason in his most understated performance). After losing big and crashing into a void of self-pity, Eddie meets down-and-out Sarah (Piper Laurie in a delicate performance), an alcoholic blue blood who’s dropped into Eddie’s world of dingy bars and seedy poolrooms. Eddie regains his confidence and attracts the attention of a shifty, calculating promoter, Bert Gordon (George C. Scott at his most heartless), who offers to bring Eddie into the big money–but at what cost?
