I'm looking for a stiff hit with some good feedback for a 3/8x10 pin. Maybe something somewhere in between the hit of maple threads and phenolic threads. I thought purpleheart would hold up better than maple...anyone have any input? Thanks

If you are looking purely for feel, a single layer tip like a good lepro or triangle on a conventional, solid maple shaft is the best and I don't even think it's subjective. Layered tips hold chalk better and are subsequently less prone to miscues, keep their shape better, and are more...

It's long been said that it's much harder to find a good triangle or lepro than it was decades ago...but layered tips seemed to largely fix the inconsistency. I recently bought a g2 soft and it was harder and worse quality than the g2 medium that I cut off to replace. I also bought a tiger...

Guys. I'm only looking for answers to the original question in the thread title. I've used a lot of break cues and don't need advice about them.

Durability is not my concern

my main concern is maximum power for breaking 8 ball head on. A low-deflection shaft, be it carbon or wood, inherently has less power than a shaft not designed to have give. I’ve used some thicker-walled carbon shafts that deflected quite a bit but were much more powerful than a bk rush for example.

The cutting tool that makes the threads for 5/16x14 and another one that cuts the threads for 5/16x18 are both ran through the brass insert, making it compatible with both as they each have the same inner diameter. I was also surprised when I found out about it, but it's pretty cool and fits...

I'm looking for a power-breaking shaft and would like a thicker walled carbon shaft, not low-deflection carbon break shaft with less power. Any recommendations? Thanks

The joint is 5/16x14
