Jumping with a Full Length Cue!

[TheWhiteEwok]

In our apa league, you have to use your playing cue after the break. Some people have been caught out, by using a bar cue for the break,making a couple and then being excited, continue to play.Then they realise that they have been playing with the bar cue, and are now stuck with it for the rest of the game.
Some places do not allow jump shoots, but those that do, the jump has to be made with the playing cue.
I am not allowed to change tips after the play of the game, unless a tip fails. But I have not yet had a failed tip.
So keep practicing, and you will get the jump to gel for you.I find the super pro tips to be good for jump and play.

Yeah - this is one of my major gripes about APA - the absolute and utter differences allowed between various leagues due to its business structure.

It has been ruled before down here that I have to jump with my "playing cue" but that if you break with a secondary stick you can use that as your "playing cue" .... or effectively the term "playing cue" applies to both your shooting cue and your breaking cue.

However - things change in APA all the time, so now that ruling very well might be different - I actually have posted a forum in our local APA forum asking for the exact details of the rules/laws/situations.

I have heard good things about super pro tips - and am considering changing my phenolic back to leather - thanks for the suggestion!
