Wow! What a great 9 ball break cue.
I have only played a few hour with it and at first was dropping one ball and the cue was running all over
I slowed my break down to 50% and now drop 2 to 4 ball and the cue stays in the center of the table:cool: (advice from Jerry Powers (maker of that cue))
I just have to train myself to break at 50% every time, out of 20 racks I only can up dry 3 times and not one scratch :eek: :)

Now if I could just run out more of those tables:o , but that is a diffrent story

The cue weights 18.76oz and hits like it weight 23oz
I like the look of it
At a close look I would give it a 7 of 10 for finish cratfsmanship (points are not too sharp and two of them have some filler wood), but I am picky

A great break cue so far

I will write more once I break 8 ball and try the jump (full stick and jump stick)

UP DATE

OK.. The Jump Stick part works great for longer Jumps, I still use my Air for short jumps, but the Stinger Jump I like a little better fo 12"+ jumps

8 BAll breaking I like it from the side break (splitting the head ball and second ball) but do not like it for straight on breaks

In the three weeks I hav had this break cue I have done 9 - 9 ball breaks and 1 - 8 ball break

I love it!!! any one want a BK2 :)

I have a Stinger and agree with you about the fit and finish. There are a lot of flaws. The cue is excellent for jumping, not bad for breaking but don't really like using it as a playing cue.
 
The stinger i had the points were pretty much even, in my opinion it to nice looking to be a break cue. It broke the balls good but i preffered my Mezz and Pred.

I edited my post and added more to it, I hope it helps if you are looking at the Stinger with SS Shaft

May I know what is your break cue ? Do you mean that Mezz break cue (PB or PB2) or Predator (BK or BK2) is better for break (more power??) than Stinger JB ?
