Review: Elite “Heavy” Break Cue

September 30th, 2007 by poolcuereview

The Elite “Heavy” Break Cue 

It seems to be a matter of great contention when the discussion comes up about whether or not you should be breaking with a heavy cue.  Some people feel that the extra weight means extra power, but the reality is that it depends on both the weight of the cue and the speed you’re hitting the cue ball with your breaker.

For those of you that feel like you really “need” a heavy cue, there is now a ridiculously heavy break cue from Elite.  The one I tried out weighed in at a little more than 28oz.  Honestly, it felt a bit silly hitting with this break cue, but it did seem like my break was quite a bit stronger with this cue than with my normal break cue.  I then watched a couple of my buddies break with it and one ended up flying the cue ball off the table.

For me, I’m quite happy with my Predator BK2, however if you feel like you need to pack a little something extra, you might as well give the Elite breaker a try.  You won’t have much control over your break, but you’re bound to hit the crap out of the ball.
