This is a great Break & Jump Cue Stick. It's heavy but not the heaviest weighing at the League Regulation 25 ounces, which I wanted to keep my Cue Stick Case as close as possible to regulation standards which this accomplishes nicely. If you are looking for a heavier 28 ounce Break Cue, Players makes a great 28 ouncer. This Cue Stick has been great at the 25 ounce weight and I would recommend this Cue Stick to anyone looking for some extra weight behind their Break or Jump shots.As an added detail worth mentioning, some reviews expressed this Cue Stick as having a weak break. This is simply not true in regards to the Cue Stick manufacturing. It is a very strong hitting Cue Stick but you have to know how to properly implement your position, stroke, and the power behind it you apply. I had to practice for a couple of days to really perfect my stroke and impact with this Cue Stick, so if you feel that you are not getting hard hits with this, first try tuning your overall technique with the Cue Stick before jumping straight into the ''it's not good'' bandwagon.Great power without using alot of effort.Well made, solid, heavy break cue that does it’s job well.My play stick is several ounces lighter and gives me a better brake.I love it!! Lots power and movement of cue ball!! ??Gives a good open break for 8-ball, price was much better than many other choices. Unlike hard tips, I can get good draw on the break, bringing cue ball back from pack. No miscues, which are common with hard tip break cues. Saves my tip on the playing cue.Two??up!!! This break cue is amazing!! I do have to dial the power on my stroke down a few. I hit maybe 75% and breaking seems a lot more effortless. Great price, good quality! If you're looking for a break cue the doesn't break the bank, then this is the one for you. I don't think you would go wrong with this purchase!perfect weight. Solid contacttres bien
