    If you're lucky and your cue has quite a thick taper, then perhaps you can just take the cue down by about 1 - 1.5cm, which should leave you a good playing length, however, if it's a slim-taper cue, then perhaps it'll have to be take down by an inch or so, in which case you might want to have it lengthened again at the butt end. You could try measuring your cue at the tip end to see how far down it measures 9 - 9.25mm ...
    okie. when i get my hands on the cue, will measure it and see how far it goes.

      No problem for a 1pc cue, you just add a bit on at the end of the butt. I think there are 2 ways to do this, re-splicing the cue to give more extra length, and the dowel method to add on a small piece of wood.
      Il n'y a pas de problemes; il n'y a que des solutions qu'on n'a pas encore trouvées.
