A one-piece cue is a great choice if you're looking for an easy to carry snooker cue. These cues are typically chosen for home use, as they can be stored on a rack without the need to be split or kept in a case.
Butt joined snooker cues
Jointed bases are often used in snooker. A jointed base allows the cue to be carried easily and take extension. Most 1pc/2pc cues include joints in their base. However, some do not. The jointed base is a great option for beginners as it allows the cue to take extended.
A butt joined snooker cue generally consists two pieces: an ending piece and a butt. The butt joint is the most common type of jointed cue. These cues are shortened to allow for shorter extension pieces, which is convenient when playing in tight spaces.
A butt joined snooker cue can have two pieces: the butt (heavier part at the bottom) or the shaft (smaller, narrower ends). The joints, made of brass and plastic, join the two pieces. Most snooker cues use brass-tobrass.
3/4 joint snooker cues
A 3/4 joined snooker cue makes a great choice for beginners. These cues are much easier to store than single-piece cues. Professional players will use a mixture of 3/4 and one-piece cues. This is because 3/4 jointed cues provide a better feeling for shots and are easier than one-piece cues.
A 3/4-jointed cue refers to a full-sized cue which has a joint running 3/4 the length of its shaft. These cues are very popular. These cues are great gifts, and they are also available online at a substantial discount. Package deals can be found that save up to PS85 on 3/4 jointed cues.
Single-piece snooker cups are the most commonly used type of snooker cup. Single-piece cues consist of one piece of wood and have butt splices to increase strength. These cues feel more solid than those made from two-piece wood.
Three-piece snooker cues
Three-piece snooker cues are designed for a shorter overall length but good feel. The most common joints are made of stainless steel ends or wood. However, higher-end cues might also have high-impact joints that improve feel and fit. Three-piece snooker cues have their pros and cons.
Three-piece cues are less portable than one-piece snooker cues. They can be stored easily in a case and can be taken with you wherever you go. They are the perfect choice for anyone who wants to experience the most from each shot.
A three-piece cue can easily accommodate three different sizes of balls. This is a great option for tables with limited space. A three-piece cue is also easy to store with its two sections and its case. Each section measures approximately forty-five cm long. Also, the cue's short length is perfect for small tables. The BCE Junior 48's Short 3 Piece Snooker Cue measures 45cm in length (case) or 42cm in sections. A short snooker cue has an ebonised four-point butt and a 9mm brass ferrule.
