I am just looking for a lot of opinions on a few break and or jump break cues. I have had a few different ones, ie: mcdermott stinger, action, j&j and so on. but I've come to the conclusion I do not like Phenolic tips. I am looking for ideas on break cues that have leather tips or ones that feel well with leather tips. I was looking at the OB break and the Impakt and Icebreaker 2 made by Tiger. I wouldn't mind a tip bigger then 13mm or even less. I'm open to hearing about custom cues as long as they arent extremely expensive. Thank you all for opinions
 
well if you don't like phenolic tips then the Tiger Icebreaker wouldn't be for you. Its a very hard leather inner with a outer jacketed phenolic shell. Not saying anything bad about them just from what your wrote. You should try a medium too hard leather tip. Ultra Skin Hard tips work real well. Madman extra hard gives a nice pop also. Hope this helps .....Frank

I have tried samsara tip on a friends cue and I didnt mind it. I prefer hitting second ball on 8 ball racks, hince the reason why I dont like phenolic itself. Cant control the cue much . Ive heard the icebreaker is a phenolic ferrule with a hard leather icebreaker tip.
 
Samsara is a real nice tip. I installed quit a few. If you like that tip then you should try the Madman break tip. Its extra hard leather and you could scuff it when needed.
