who can jump?

[strmanglr scott]

With their regular playing cue as good as w a jump cue?

Got a little personal bet w someone on this, so honesty is appreciated. I'm limited but...

Would you feel you could present ur best game w one cue?

I can do most jumps except real close full ball jumps.

No, not even in the game. Give me my Predator Air, and I'll jump out of most trouble spots. Very accurate, and useful tool.

Jump higher with my jump cue. More accurate with my player. Neither one is any good.

As of yesterday, I own my first jump/break cue. I've always jumped with my playing cue. I don't really intend to use the jump part very often, though I may well grab the full break cue for a jump simply because the Samsara tip jumps so well. I don't jump much, anyhow. I'll kick at a ball the vast majority of the time. What I consider to be practical jumps are when you just need to clear the edge of a ball, and then even the worst jumping cue in the world can easily get the cue ball a 1/4" in the air to clear an edge.

But if the question is can I do my absolute best jumping without it, from what I saw yesterday with just a couple of hours under my belt, no way. That said, I think that's 95% the tip, so as long as I could switch to my break cue I think I'd be fine.

As Earl would say jump cues are for P_____

I don't think anyone who is proficient with a jump cue is "as good" with their regular cue. Full cue may be better for long jumps, but will never be as good as a jump cue on close shots.

A putter and driver are clubs but they perform differently in the right hands on the golf course. Same for a jump and a pool cue in the pool hall.

I can jump at various distances with my jump cue... I can jump with my playing cue at less varying distances but my accuracy is better.

I have been practicing jumping with a full length cue, and like most have said here can jump a ball 12 inches and out, but anything closer than that and have to get the shorty out.

I tried practicing jumping with a full cue, gave up and went back to kicking.

One thing I did notice jumping with a full cue, than a jump cue is I was able to make stop shots more often than not.

Earl would also wear a beekeepers outfit and ass weights when he shoots and preach about the benefits of them... so there's that.

Good to see you on here Carl.
