No More Phenolic tips/ Whats best for my jump cue??

If you have a phenolic ferrule /tip put on & have a very thin leather tip put on in the center , you will be legal...JER
 
Nope I called BCAPL, and spoke with one of their experts. The reason for the call was a NEW League operator in the Valley had ask me to join one of his teams, after the RUNING I said NO. I done with out league play 62 years, so why start now.

Think about this. SVB can jump, break and play with a Triangle. I think it would be advantageous to do the same with the tip of your choice.

So did I, but with a LePro. A full ball at six inches at my best, and I am a hack.

Closest I ever been to playing as good as Shane was sitting next to him at the no limit poker table at the Riv. :)

Your references are good but the NEW RULES as I understand them went into effect 6/1/2009. MAYBE? BCAPL has not update their web-site.

** Also I do not know how this rule would effect local events, as my understanding is the RULE are for the BCAPL EVENTS like the one in Las Vegas that is know as the National 8 Ball Championships.

Just FYI, my BCAPL League Operator has said that until the establishment where we play complains that we are damaging balls, he will not enforce the "no phenolic" rule, and there haven't been any complaints. I expect other LOs to follow. This is with the understanding that any play outside of our local establishment will enforce the rule, i.e. nationals. Also, the cuemaker who makes White Diamond tips (his name escapes me, Picone?) claims that he has the blessings of the BCAPL to use his tips.
:p
