Break cue shafts

I think that stiff taper shafts provide the best break all else being equal. Vibration of whippy shafts translates less force into the cue ball.

Odega Tips

Many people around here are using Odega tips. Designed and made here in ND. BCA legal leather, monster hit.

My BTX taper with a Samsara leather tip can not be beat.

Let's also ask, what type of wood is best for a break shaft? I've read so many things praising different woods, it's hard to tell which choose to make.

Lyptus wood is incredible for break shafts. Also, I am a fan of White Diamond tips, but I'm not sure if they are bca approved.
