Here is the list of advantage
1.it prevent the cue from going up > giving a nice stroke
2.More accurate~i can feel it's more accurate maybe due to more surface area grip on the cue,i still nid alot of practise thou for now my this method still no mastery.
3.Can have a better 9 spot shot>easier to do spin ,reverse,stop,roll back,roll forward.
I have been thinking of buying a POWER BREAK CUE
The cue is slightly longer than the normal ones, longer means more power, the mass is also heavier because cue radius is not constant from the top to bottom the bottom will be bigger and bigger than more mass lah....another difference is the shaft/tip of the cue it's very hard very different from normal playing ones but however this stick can't be used to play only for break due to the special shaft so abit waste lah,soemore if go play need carry one stick around very mafan.Seriously the only benefit is able to do a 8ball break on a higher chance. it cost USD$274 so SGD shuld be $384.60. you probably think i am crazy by now.
That's why you will always see me wanting to break :D i want practise the ^.^ 8ball break method so far only done 8ball break twice.
