What are the differences between the various types of cues?
Each cue is designed for a specific type of billiards game. The differences lie in tip diameter, weight, balance and intended use. Below is a handy overview:
| Cue | Tip diameter | Weight | Characteristics | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carom cue | 11-12 mm | 470-530 g | Finesse & spin | Carom billiards |
| Pool cue | 12-13 mm | 500-600 g | Power & speed | Pool billiards |
| Snooker cue | 9-10 mm | 450-500 g | Precision & control | Snooker |
| English pool cue | 8-9.5 mm | 450-500 g | Accuracy & finesse | English pool |
Carom cues
A carom cue features a narrow tip that allows for precision and finesse. Because carom balls are relatively small and light, less power is required, placing greater emphasis on control and applying spin.
Pool cues
Pool billiards requires a cue that combines power and speed. Pool cues feature a harder and wider tip, perfectly suited to the larger and heavier pool balls. This provides greater control during powerful shots, making potting more accurate and easier.
English pool cues
English pool cues feature a narrow tip, ideal for the smaller and lighter balls used in this variant of pool. They are generally lighter and slightly shorter than standard pool cues. Combined with the narrow tip, this offers excellent control and finesse.
Snooker cues
Snooker is a technically demanding game that requires finesse and highly controlled shots. Snooker cues are therefore relatively light and equipped with a narrow tip, specially designed for the small snooker balls.
