Question for Mel about jump cue

[raemondo]

Hi Melissa,

I want to buy a jump cue cos I don't think my Sledge J/B jumps short distances very consistently, and I'm considering either the Omega Jump Cue or the Jacoby Jumper. I posted this on the main forum and some people said go for the JJ, but I wanted to know what a pro might think. Apparently, the OJ sold very well at recent big events and quite a few pros use them, so you might have seen it around before.

thanks!

I use a Stealth jump cue...and I know several other pros who use it. I love it...and have no problem jumping balls with consistency. (Accuracy is another story...but that's my bad aim when jumping....not the cues fault!)

My best advice is to try several different kinds of jump cues and see which one feels most comfortable for you. You can hold off buying one for now...and when when you go to tournaments, ask the other players if you can test their different brands.

Good luck!
