Is it good to have a Jump/break cue?

[ttruong]

I've once owned a Lucasi 2000JB, and was wondering if it is smart to buy another one. The thing is that when I broke with the Lucasi there was major deflection that decreased my accuracy. It wasn't a bad jump cue, because deflection is good for jumping. (so I heard)

So my question is; should I buy another Jump/Break cue of another line in general, or should I just buy them seperately. I just want to carry less cues to the pool hall and save my money (for a Predator P2). Does anyone out there know of a good Jump/break, or suggest a good Break cue?

I think you should save your money for that predator. In my opinion, jump break conversion cues try to do too much. I don't know about the lucasi but I've tried to jump with a JB and it was very difficult. I can jump effortlessly with a specialized jump cue.
