Abstract: A jump cue stick for use in the game of billiards having a first and second hollow shaft members that are releasably connected and very light weight, the jump cue stick does not employ a conventional wood handle or wood shaft but has a carbon/graphite handle end and a carbon/graphite shaft. The jump cue stick of present invention has one embodiment for causing a struck cue ball to be jumped over a obstructing ball and having an overall total weight of less than one half of a conventional jump cue stick and by elevating the handle end of the jump cue to an appropriate height, which is higher than if a conventional jump cue were used, and striking the cue ball at an appropriate angle with an appropriate amount of force enabling the player to facilitate the ball-jumping effect from a much closer distance to the blocking balls.
