Hello Everyone

[luneski]

Just started playing snooker again after 10 years out - used to play in the local league back in the eighties - just a distant memory now!

Looking to buy a new cue as soon as possible and was hoping for some advice from people who know. Only want to spend up to about £150 and wondered what would be my best options?

Any ideas would be much appreciated?

Hi - welcome to TSF - in that price range a lot of people praise Mastercraft, you can choose your own length, weight, tip size etc at no extra cost. Or search ebay for second hand higher quality cues ?

No doubt others will be along with other options for you - cheers

Thanks guys for you help

Have looked at a few of these options, and will now check the rest - cheers.

Does anyone know anything about Cheshire billiards? They have a couple of cues on there for @£100 which look OK.

Going by the name of one of the cues "Black Widow" - i think they are made by a company called "Geordie Pool of England" not seen any in the flesh, but that one looks like a nice cue.
