l wanna get my boyfriend a really good jump cue for christmas, but l really do not know much at all about pool or which cues are the best, etc.. l know he has a custom Meucci and break cue, but he still has not gotten around to buying a jump cue. Any ideas as far as which brands are the best quality, etc?
Thanks :]

Whatever u choose, stay away from screw-on tips! Look for a lifetime warranty when purchasing any cue.

After u research various pool cues, l HIGHLY advise that u TRY THE CUE out BEFORE u purchase it. No matter the brand, the most important factor is that the pool cue FEELS good, ''right & comfortable for YOU! If u do buy a pool cue before u try it out, be sure that u get a 100% money back guarantee with ur purchase! l have NEVER purchased a cue that l did not try out first or compare with other cues. It is so important that u FEEL a few cues. You WILL know what cue & weight is right for u when u feel, stroke & compare different weights & brands.(The only cues l have that l did not try out first, were pool awards).


Take ur time with ur search.

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments u may have.

All the best -
