Just started playing UK Pool after a 20 year break from snooker and recently purchased a new pool spec cue which I'm happy with.
Weight is 17oz, 8.5" tip, 17" bal point and length 56" (prefer shorter cue) and I can play plenty of variety of shots but I find that very fine touch shots are sometimes difficult to judge (perhaps it's a lack of talent?) when playing with a lighter and smaller cue ball.
I'm just curious how a cue will feel that is 14-16oz and wondered if anyone uses a cue around this weight and your thoughts?
Unfortunately cues of that weight (and preferred length 56") don't come off the shelf so unlikely that I will be able to try one without getting a custom made which will be costly and difficult to sell on if it didn't feel right.
