New Cue

[walklingj]

Im looking at buying a new cue, but on a budget of under £100.

Only ever bought cues from JJB and the likes before, anyone got any advice of where I can find good quality cues on a budget?

Cheers, Jack

welcome to tsf mate.. i would recommend you try to save abit more before getting a cue. Around 150GBP would get you a very decent cue. Meantime, do try out some cues to know your spec and what kind of cue you like. Maybe you can ask ADR or hotpot, they have some cues with very good price.

I dont know if you can try before you buy, but A&D Billiards and Pool Services are in Sutton Coldfield.There website is "thesnookershop.co.uk".They sell retail cues such as Peradon right up to custom handmade cues.They have a cue doctor onsite and are an established business so could be worth a visit.Thurstons themselves are also based in Birmingham.Burroughs and Watts are in the Sutton area and B&W Billiards are also in the Birmingham area. Hope this helps.

I have a one piece ash mastercraft with mini butt for £100

Specs

57 "
16.7 oz
29.5 mm butt
9.6 mm

I also have a one piece gbl 4 for £150 . I know its over your budget but its well worth the extra £50 if you wanted to buy and could save the extra .
