I haven't been around billiards in a long time...in fact, I am hoping someone will take my old table out of the basement soon....lol. Cue's as my old mind remembers really need to be fitted to your taste. Go to some up scale billiard stores, and check out what they have, and then decide what you want. I never did find that perfect cue. But I did have a nice one...but #3 son latched on to that one...
