I would but I have not heard good things about that cue. Its too light for most in-game situations and I am not looking for a trickshot jump cue.

Thank you very much for he offer however.
 
I understand budget is a big concern, but honestly, you do get what you pay for in most cases. Maybe look for a used Stinger J/B, well worth the money. Poison makes a decent jump cue as well and I think J/B. By the time you spend $30 here or $50 there trying to find out what works best, you could have bought a "name brand" that would probably be better for you in the long run.
 
Jacoby Custom Cues sells their jump cue for $135, and I consider it one of the top two or three made. Visit their website.

So what is the best cheapest jump cue out there?

Lucasi has a jumper for about $70-80 range, so does Bunjee. Bunjee will be my recommendation given the low budget, as it jumps a little easier than the lucasi.

I will choose bunjee anyway for a jump cue, but their new generation break/jump cues can't match up with their 1st generation ones.

similar tread

I started a similar tread back in January to get some input on these cues.

I ordered it from the seller your looking at. It got here in about three days. Once I recieved it I was glad I ordered it. I had never jumped before and I ordered it just to practice and play around a bit. From the very first shot I could jump across the table. I think its a really great jumping cue, but then again I don't have the experience to compare it to an expensive cue either. My two cents, Its great little jumping cue and you cant beat he price!
 
Thanks for all the feedback guys. I usually just jump with my full length playing cue but its not the easiest thing to do with a low deflection shaft.

I'll probably look at the Bungie jump cue.

The Bungee cue is just a $30 J&J cue with a decal on it.

Don't be fooled by the price.:shocked:
 
i own a grim reaper jumpper and a TnT J/B. I'm NOT an experienced jumpper so obviously am not a good oppinion on any, but a friend just purchased one like this and it looks great. For someone learning, I say you can go too wrong with this or a J&J.
 
It's not the price. I got one on here delivered new for thirty dollars and it jumps great. I now have a reaper. It jumps well too. The biggest difference that I think someone needs to address is whether you prefer the phenolic or leather tip. I think I am going to get leather installed on my reaper.
 
I just got a Poison Black Belt. I paid $75 for it.

It jumps easy and the only other one that I have tried and liked was the Lucasi Air Hog. The Hog is much more expensive and they both jump effortlessly.

The difference in price between the 2 can't justified as far as I am concerned.

30 bucks is a decent price but with the Poison, double the price but also double the jumping power.

If you like to jump balls, it doesn't make sense to buy a jumper that is hard to learn how to handle. You will probably be giving up a ball in hand at least 50% of the time when you or the cue malfunctions on you. You are buying a cue to jump balls, not give away a ball in hand.

If you cheap out on a jumper, you will most likely regret pulling it out of the case most times and learn to use the rails instead.

I actually bought a 30 dollar jump cue from eBay. It's a really good jumper and nothing wrong with it. In fact, I like it better than my friend's Poison jump stick since it has a knob on the back and isn't too light, so I can do a lot of practical jumps with it.

If you want to know the EXACT one I have, this is the link. I really like mine so I recommend it.

You didn't get a chance to try one of my jumpers :(
I think they are the best, but I am biased.
Mine start at 200$ for a very plain cue
