For the price, this looks like a really decent break cue. I know that a lot of the speed comes from the weight of the cue. The more mass, the more energy you can achieve.
Of course you have to be careful to not sacrifice speed for accuracy. Based on the reviews, it looks like this cue has a nice balance of the two.
Thanks for the review. At this price, I can’t afford to not add it to my billiard room.

Hi there, kmv! I would like to thank you for dropping by and adding your thoughts in regards to this break cue review. You’re right in saying to not sacrifice speed for accuracy as this cue is only meant for breaking only and not as a standard cue to use during gameplay.
It’s ok if you pass on this cue. Perhaps you might know someone that would be interested in it? If you do, go ahead and refer him or her to this post. Perhaps, this cue can help in breaking the cue for effectively. Cheers!

This post grabbed my attention because I had no idea there were cues available specifically for breaking..? I’m a bit of a weakling, so I always have trouble getting a good, powerful break. Would a cue like this make much of a difference to my game? Does the power come from the hardwood or the steel tip?

Yo Jyl! With this kind of cue, you’ll be breaking the rack much more efficiently and less awkwardly. The balls would be spreading about and not seem to be staying at one half of the table. As to answer your question if the power comes from the hardwood or the steel tip, I’ll get back and provide you an answer within 24-48 hours. Stay tuned…

Hello Jyl
Sorry for the late response. To answer your question, the power comes from the steel tip. I hope this helps, and feel free to stop by anytime as I look forward to hearing from you again. Take care.
