So I have a decent pool table, (it is real it is just not that great). I have had it for like 7 years or so and the cues kinda suck but then last nite one of my friends kinda threw one on the ground and broke it. So I am lookin for some new cues. The problem is I have absolutly no idea where to start. Any good places for good and cheap cues?? Ebay?? and what are some decent cue brands, I have no idea.
Thanks

Go to a store that sells tables. Just make sure the are straight! And get a few different weights.

I wouldnt order online. You really need to make sure they are straight. Most sproting good stores sell them too. JUST MAKE SURE THEY ARE STRAIGHT. There is nothing worse than a warped cue.

I prefer fiberglass or graphite, but it just depends on you. Some people have to have wood. cuetec's (www.cuetec.com) are pretty good, and a basic one piece isn't too expensive.

try fivestarbilliards.com (five or 5 in the address) ive order from them several times before...only once did i get a slightly crooked shaft...

look under "house cues" to replace your broken one...

WalMart has 'em pretty cheap. Mine's from there; I'm pretty satisfied with it. You can get a super-cheap on that you can make your friends use (like the one who broke the first one), or a nicer one that only you're allowed to use.
