Pool CuesPool cues in the UK are really not any different to the snooker cues, both have similar tip sizes at 9.5 mm and are usually 57 inches or thereabouts. The trend at the moment for pool cues is to have a different shaft for breaking off and another for the actual game play. See the 3 piece Jimmy White Jump and Break cue Another innovation is the Smart Extender, which screws into the butt of the cue, to quickly add a further 6 to 9 inches to the cue for those times when you need that extra length. The English pool cue usually comes in a 50/50 split configuration for ease of carrying it around, so you need a 30 inch or so cue case to go with it. The game of English pool is a relative newcomer to the billiards world and is probably more popular than snooker nowadays with the advent of the pool leagues that have sprung up around the UK. The English pool cue although borrowed from the game of snooker is developing it's own style, with slightly smaller tips of 8 or 9 mm like our Buffalo range of pool cues, although not quite as flamboyant as the American cues yet. To look after your pool cue just keep it clean with a damp cloth and dry it
off immediately and make sure the tip is in good shape and change it often if
playing regularly. Never let the cue tip get hard or miss shaped as this will
definitely affect your game.
