Oh I get it now.I know
Did you at least get the red one? The red one looks the best and I'm sure the color adds to the loft of each jump.Update. I ended up buying the propel lol.
You could say that about a starter main cue as well. I bought a 200$ players and eventually made the plunge for a Cuetec truewood. Sold the players for a profit!Get the Propel & be done. Any $$$ spent on a “cheaper” jump cue is money burnt when you end up buying the Cuetec at a later date.
The pool bug will bite hard & you will be playing competitively in no time at all.
If you can't jump the ball, it's not worth it. If you have a solid jump technique/ability, then a decent jump cue might be worthwhile.Just wondering what you guys think about jump cues.
Currently have a Cuetec Cynergy Truewood and a Cynergy Breach. Been debating on a Cynergy Propel for a while now. Didn’t mind buying a break and playing cue since they are used quite often. Just wondering, how often are you guys using your jump cues?
My friend said I should buy a cheaper jump cue since you don’t really use it. He recommended the Raven jump cue.
Would you guys go for the Cynergy propel or get a cheaper jump cue or not even bother with a jump cue? I play just for fun and don’t plan on doing competitive tournaments. I would like to join a small league for fun in the future though.
Yes, you can jump with the shaft. I heard it was a known trick shot demonstration, made possible because the shift in balance point. I read in one of Robert Byrne's books that Pat Fleming disguised his with a butt made of balsa wood.Just as a side note: I wonder if (historically) it was ever considered a foul to intentionally loft the CB (?). It’s one thing to hop over the edge of OBs with your full length playing cue (a questionable call, that likely referees always gave to the shooter the benefit of doubt), but to hop an obviously blocked obstructing ball would be rather suicidal. Before jump cues were invented, it IS possible to short-hop with a spare shaft only.
thats the one im getting lolDid you at least get the red one? The red one looks the best and I'm sure the color adds to the loft of each jump.![]()
Right on.... Said since it was released that the Propel was like cheating. Still hands down the best jumper I've ever gotten my hands on.Update: After using the propel a few times I can say it was definitely worth it. Makes jumping a lot easier compared to using a break cue. Still definitely requires practice to get good at it but it’s already saved me in two matches.
The best way to describe it is moving houses in a dedicated U-Haul (Dedicated jump cue) vs a truck (non dedicated jump cue). The U-Haul will be a lot easier to get the job done but the truck will also get the job done, albeit a little harder.
That may be when you don’t need one. I asked a well seasoned money player about being old school and showing up to a tournament with a 1x1 case. He said that’s all you need. Break with your player and if we match up at something other than 1 pocket I just make a no jump cue stipulation. (He won the tournament without a jump cue naturallyYou play for anything....you better have one.
Saves giving up ball in hand and can keep your runs going.
Bruh I’m not reading that
If you compete in a league where jump cues are permitted, you are handicapping yourself by not having one. Buy one and learn how to use it.Just wondering what you guys think about jump cues.
