  • Question
    What should I expect to spend for a quality, low vibration first cue? And how do I choose one?
    Community Answer
    Cues that are designed for low vibration may start around $200 but could easily cost closer to $500. Your best bet is to look online or at a store at low vibration options and then read reviews from users on those specific cues.
  • Question
    What are the differences between pool cues and snooker cues?
    Community Answer
    Snooker cues have a smaller diameter tip (typically around 9 mm), whilst standard pool cues have larger tip diameters (typically 11-13 mm).
  • Question
    How do I measure for a pool cue?
    Community Answer
    A pool cue typically should be as tall as the bridge of your nose. This enables you to be able to stroke through your shots and get the most out of your stroke.
  • Question
    I have a 4.6 m by 4 m room. Should I settle for an 8 foot table and use 48" cues? Or should I go for the bigger 9 foot table and use a smaller cue at one end if needed?
    Community Answer
    8 foot tables are great for home use in a smaller room, and a great first table.
