Designed as a playing cue

CT02/12/P is listed as a playing cue, with the focus on normal match play, potting, positional play and regular cue-ball work rather than repeated breaking.

The 8.5mm tip is toward the finer end of the Second Edition playing-cue range. At 18oz, the cue has a slightly more substantial listed weight than some of the lighter cues in the batch. Players should compare these measurements with the cue they already use and the feel they normally prefer.

Why choose a 1 piece English pool cue?

A 1 piece cue keeps the cue at full length without a main joint. Many English pool players prefer this traditional format for its simplicity and direct feel through the shot.

The practical consideration is transport. At 57.2 inches, CT02/12/P requires a full-length one-piece cue case rather than a shorter case made for a jointed cue.
