Mark Richard 3/4 Piece 57 Inches 60 Inches Handmade Snooker Cue Kit - Aluminium - Leather Case - Ash Shaft

I have a higher end cue, this is a 2nd cue, and I can say this cue is well made and feels good. The 3/4 air joint is very nice, extensions are solid and well made, the case is also very nice but it could be a little wider as the longer part of the cue doesn't fit flush down in it's slot, but that's fine. There are a few slightly rougher areas on the cue where the finish sanding could have been a little more thorough, but for the most part it feels smooth and nice, and play isn't affected. I weighed the cue and mine is about 18.3 oz (which I'm very happy with this weight), and it feels well balanced. To me the cue has nice feel, even with the original tip that came on it, after a little shaping. I'm very happy with this purchase and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this cue to any player even at an intermediate level and maybe slightly above. It would be nice if this cue also came in a 58", and a further bonus if the range for weight was a bit more narrow as opposed to 18-19.5 oz. because that is quite a big range, as every half oz. is quite noticeable at least for myself. However, I understand to be able to supply cues at this price it's probably not possible.

It’s a good stick, but I would hesitate to call it great. The cue has a weird feel out of the box, which was packaged extremely well by amazon and the company that made the cue. The weight was okay for me and the feel was nice overall. What I didn’t like was the misleading picture of the tip shown in the product images. The image shows a nice tip with plenty of depth for long-term use, but the cue received has a very shallow tip that looks like it will NEED a to be replaced after very few months of average use. It’s shallow and has little “meat” to it. I would love if the tip was as shown or the company could ship one for replacement but otherwise a great product.

This is a heavier cue than I've been used to but it's got great power and draw. The shaft is bullet straight and the tip, while small, is good enough to play with. The ash shaft is less smooth than I would like but I think I can polish it smoother. I've put away my old light cue (a Riley made in England) and I'm playing exclusively with this new cue and enjoying it. It worth mentioning the case and attachments. The case is excellent. Very good quality construction with three clasps to secure it. The two attachments give the player the ability to lengthen the cue for those awkward shots or to use with a rest if needed. Overall a very nice cue, case and accessories and excellent value for money.

When I tightened the Cue then I start the game and the duration of the game when shooting the Balls. it loose itself automatically, and also when I shooting the Balls the Tip make different sound it doesn’t make the correct sound 👎👎👎👎

If you're looking for a good, solid cue for personal use, look no further. The cue is straight, the locking joint is flush and solid with a nice vacuum seal. The handle is a nice black blue finish. The tip it came with was shaped well, but I'll likley end up replacing it as it's a little too hard for my preference. The extensions are solid too, the joints on them are just as tough. The case is well made and locks well. I'm impressed. There's no person named Mark Richard though. It's merely a name picked to mimic the western cue makers like John Parris. That said, don't let this chinese made cue scare you away. Snooker is popular in China and they've made great strides in quality. This piece shows it. There might be better out there for tournaments and pros but honestly, there's no reason to spend so much $$$ when this will do everything you ask.

What they said in the discription of the Cue. It's not that perfect. Tip is not perfect, Cue is not smouth, weight is not right. It's normal Cue . It's not worth the price. I am not happy with product.

Me and a buddy got the same cue, and we could not be happier. Comes with a case, 2 extensions, and a great feeling cue with a tip that looks fitted, rounded, and sanded down right out of the box, ready to play. I have zero complaints, this is an excellent starter level Snooker cue. If you want something a little higher quality, go with one of the cues from Ultimate Pool, Peradon or Paris cues, but this works great for beginners or as a practice cue.

I’ve had this cue for over a year and still performs great. Compared to other cues I had to replace the tip with a better one. As for the wood shaft. I don’t notice any warping. I play snooker 2 nights every month, and always keep my cue in a dry place and never leave in my truck. I don’t know if this info is benefit or not but I had bought cues before which warped after couple of uses
