How to Choose the Best Snooker Cues

There are a few different kinds of snooker cues on the market today. A cheap entry-level model may appeal to beginners. If you are serious about your game you will need to invest in the best cue.

First, you must decide which cue type you want. There are two main types: one-piece and two-piece. The most traditional cues are one-piece, however there are cues made completely of wood. These cues are available in many shapes and sizes. This gives the cue an excellent solid hit.

A jump and break cue is another option. It is designed to help you get started in a game. These cues will be most often used in 10 ball. These cues are more suitable for jumping balls because they have a stronger tip than most other cues. The Cobra 2 Piece Snooker Cue from Peradon is a great example of this. It is made from Ash of high quality, comes with a brass ferrule, and has a 9mm tip.

Finally, you can purchase a cue with a 'Cannon' jointed end, or a cue that has a 'butt jointed' end. The Cannon cues that have a 'butt jointed' ends are often provided with a special 'Cannon' extension that is screwed onto the end of the cue.


Maple or Ash are the most popular materials for snooker cues. The tips have different diameters, surfaces, and hardness. You need to ensure that you pick the correct tip for your game. It is recommended that players use a cue with a tip of between 9.5-10. If you use a softer tip for billiards, your ball will be more likely to go off-course. However, a harder tip will cause the ball to degrade faster.

For those who aren't sure what to look for, check out this guide to help you find the right cue. You can browse online and buy from a variety of sources, from a snooker shop to an online cue store.

You can purchase a snooker cae at a local club or retail store. However, it is important to determine the cue size. Your height, weight, or skill level will all impact the size of your cue. A shorter cue will work best for those who aren’t very tall. On the other hand, a player who is a little taller may prefer a longer cue. It doesn't really matter what decision you make, but you should ensure your cue remains safe and sound.
