This thread has already been worn very very thin. I think if you check the AZ archive you will find this has been asked many many time.

Good Luck
 
yes this had been asked many times.

inside pool did a poll

# 1 was predator bk2

#2 was fury j/b

the fury is the best ive ever owned. sold my x breaker and sledgehammer
(gulyassy original not mcdermott or cheap japaneese model)

i broke harder, more accurate and jumped better.

the leather wrap gives extra grip so you can really get into em!
 
I guess I'll vote for "custom made". Like these...:) But yes...Manwon is correct indeed.

thank's for the replies

Just realized that guys:o . However now I would consider that I'm a little bit better informed. thank's
BTW; Kevin that's a wicked cue, absolutely love it
 
i find i break harder with a lighter cue. you throw a lighter cue faster. i find throwing a lighter cue faster equates into more mph that i can get with just a heavier cue

larry nevel and i ( and a few others) were breaking at the us open on that bar table where lee is set up. he was using the x breaker and i whipped out my players jb i made, my sledgehammer and his xbreaker and we all were murdering the balls. great times
 
My vote is for custom as well. I own a Varney (top one in Kevin's pic) and highly recommend them. I'll be very hard pressed to buy anything else.

For reference, here is a poll that was conducted some time ago. Granted it doesn't list all the ones you do, but it's a very good poll.

Most will perform as they were intended and quite well and are very nice cues IMO. Asking which is best is a very subjective and opinionated question. I am going to tell you Varney is the best and someone else will tell you the X-breaker is the best, etc, etc, etc. The only one that can make up your mind for you is you. I found the one that works very well for me. Also, in my opinion, Kevin's customer service is very good.

Whatever you choose, I hope you get one that suits you. You are most certainly going to find ones you like and ones you don't.

Regards,
Craig
 
My vote goes to the Jerico Stinger... Best All-Around break cue...

Followed by the Rick Howard Mace

Then the BK series
