Any snooker players here? Looking to get a decent cue, not sure on all the options?

[Space Monkey]

Hi all,

I want to get myself a nice cue for snooker, for years I've been using a second hand celebrity endorsed cue given to me a long time ago. It's been a fairly nice cue, but it's seen much better days and I've always fancied something a lot better.

I've just started looking around the web for options and there is so much choice so I'd appreciate any input

I know prices range wildly, I don't want the most expensive or the cheap and nasty, so maybe a budget of say £200-300 but less is good as well if it gets me a good cue?

Also any input on the best woods, ie ash vs maple etc also welcome.

Thanks

My mate used to get his from here:

Always said you should try before you buy though!

I used to play Pool and Snooker all the time. I used an Aeon Cue, the craftsmanship that went into was second to none. About the only decent thing to come out of coventry to be honest

Only use green triangle chalk.
