I have a Bungee jump cue that was turned down (around the butt) on a lathe.
Leather tip. Jumps like a cat after a firecracker went off.

Jump Cue: What do you use

James, speaking of cats and fire crackers, I have a joke.
I traded a Frog and $40 for a new Jacoby jump cue. Not a bad deal on my end. I liked my Tad Pole, jumped very nice but I couldn't jump with the Frog if my life depended on it.
The finish bubbled on the Tad and the wrap unraveled off the Frog. Under the wrap, there was no trace that glue was ever used.
A young boy was visiting his pregnant Mom in the hospital. Lets call this young lad Johnny. While there, a minister came to visit too. He sprinkled Holy water on Johnny's moms tummy. Johnny asked the minister why he did that.
The minister replied, "its so your Mom will pass a fine baby".
Johnny looked at the minister and said, "I know something that works better than that".
The minister looked at little Johnny and said, "you do, and what is that".
Johnny said to the minister, "Gasoline, put some on a Cats A ss and he will pass a FN motorcycle".
The Jacoby is reasonably priced and has a brass ferrule and a G10 tip on it. It does jump pretty sporty.

I own a jacoby, bunjee, poison, and pechauer jump cue. I love them all but my poison beats the other 3 by a tiny hair.
Alex Brick makes the best jump cue I've used.
I agree, I have a J&J that I bought almost brand new from someone that was moving and was getting rid of his pool cues for $20. It jumps just fine for me. :thumbup:
Robin told me the Tad pole is 40" inches and the Frog is 42 " inches ...
I used a j&j until this week when my Jacoby arrived. The J&J was good but the Jacoby beats it hands down. I've tried others but the Jacoby gets air very easy and is controllable.

I use the Tiger Icebreaker as a jump cue. I carry just the 2 piece jump butt and shaft with me and leave the end butt piece at home.
Been using my Andy Gilbert...just got an X-breaker...so I see how it fair with my Gilbert.

I have the mcdermott ng05 jb cue, I do not use it for breaking anymore as I feel that I loose power in my break due to it being a 2 piece butt. I like a solid butt, the ob break, but the stinger shaft with the jump handle that came with the ng package is amazing! I never used it, when I had to jump I simply just broke down my break cue instead of taking the time to use the jump handle it came with, big mistake!
I used it for the first time just a few weeks ago, and I am jumping like I never thought I could, BTW I have a samsara tip on it with the phenolic (stinger) base still on the bottom and into the furrel.
On another note, I heard that diamond wood jump cue (cannot remember the brand of the jumper it was) is the tits. It weighs a ton, I believe around 12-16oz. But all of the reviews and testimonials I have seen are raving about it. So I may try and get one, the maker is a very weird name. found it! BOUSKA dYmondwood jump cue, and I think it is 12oz or so.
I would like to try one of these very much, I am a good player, and pick up on techniques very easily, but jumping for some reason is hit or miss for me. But since I made my stinger a dedicated jump cue with the handle, I am much much better, though I may get one of these bouska jumps.
just my 2cents. thanks
