Jump Cue Choices? Best One?

Okay, I had too much time at the shop one day. Probably waiting for some ringwork (epoxy) to dry. Made myself this 'Dooley-type' jump handle. It works just fine!

put me in the Jacoby column. it does everything it's supposed to very well.

and in fairness to mr. Lomax, I have heard great things, including from many on this thread, but i have not tried his.

best,

Im gonna cast my late vote for a James Hanshew jump cue. Its a 3 piece about 7oz with a purple heart shaft. I have jumped with them all and this one wins hands down with me. Just my humble opinion.

I'm fond of my new Mark Bear jump cue with purple heart shaft. I also like the Stealth AT-1 and my Rick Howard MACE Jump/Break cue. If you have good technique you can jump with most anything.
 
for just a jump cue I actually like the lucasi jump cue. Its cheap, it works very well, and if you forget to put it back in the case you don't cry about it.

Have had a bunch of j/b cues, and like the little lucasi for jumps much more than any of the combo cues.

I'm surprised that nobody mentioned the Stealth AT-1 Air Jumper...the only jumpcue that comes standard with a leather tip,,,and 3-piece construction... all weighing in at 8 oz., and very economical, at $100 or less. It's been my standard for 10 yrs.

I currently use the AT-1 also, and love it. I haven't tried many jumpers before, only the Bunjee and a J&J, but the AT-1 is so much easier to use and it's the only one I've ever been able to have success with the dart stroke.

I may be wrong, but the reason Lomax uses the bungee tip is because well he is the original designer of those jump cues as well as the creator of the bungee tip, but don't quote me on that.
