How do you know what size snooker cue to get?

Cue length and size is not as complicated as many believe. We recommend a cue length between 57” to 58” for most players and many players of all heights agree on this length. For players taller than 6'4” or those who just enjoy a longer cue, we recommend considering a cue with an extension piece.

Why is it called a snooker cue?
The solution was to come up with “footless” sticks. The handle of the mace was known as a “queue,” which meant “tail.” From there, it evolved, and we now have the word “cue.” Even with the invention of the cue stick, there were still some players that chose mace over the other.

How long does a snooker cue tip last?
As for the tip, well it really depends on how much you are playing. If you are playing every day you might change the tip every three or four weeks but if there is a gap it could last longer.

How often should you change a snooker cue tip?
When or how often should you replace a cue tip? Usually, a tip is replaced either when you want to try something new or if your current tip has worn down too low, where there is almost no tip material left on the shoulder of the ferrule.

Does an expensive snooker cue make a difference?
Absolutely it will make a difference. More importantly, however, you must get used to whatever cue you play with and do not try to play with another. Stephen Hendry famously played with a cheap cue for most of his career, until it was broken, but he played even better when he had to use a better one.
