Snooker Cue

A Snooker cue stickr simply snooker cue, more specifically pool cue, snooker cue, or billiards cue), is an item of sporting equipment essential to the games of pool, snooker and carom billiards. It is used to strike a ball, usually the cue ball. Cues are tapered sticks, typically about 58 inches (1.5 m) long and 18–21 ounces (510–600 g). Most cues are made of wood, but occasionally the wood is covered or bonded with other materials including carbon fiber or fiberglass. An obsolete term for a cue, used from the 16th to early 19th centuries, is "billiard stick".
