Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is this snooker cue suitable for complete beginners?
A: Yes! The one-piece design eliminates joint wobble, making it perfect for learning consistent stroke mechanics and building confidence from the start.

Q: What's the difference between a one-piece cue and a 3/4 cue?
A: A one piece snooker cue is crafted from a single piece of solid wood, providing excellent energy transfer, stable hitting feel and accuracy, bringing a smooth, uninterrupted playing experience, and is the first choice for players who value precision and control. In contrast, a 3/4 piece snooker cue is designed with detachable joints, which is easier to transport and store. Although it still provides stable performance, the joint will slightly affect energy transfer, and feel is slightly lacking.
