cue stick
Some shafts are simply constructed of wood, which offers ideal grip. One-piece tips are not subject to this problem, but they do tend to mushroom more easily.
These cues are also valued because of how well they perform. Cues are tapered sticks, typically about 57–59 inches (about 1.5 m) long and usually between 16 and 21 ounces (450–600 g), with professionals gravitating toward a 19-ounce (540 g) average. Snooker butts are usually flat on one side so that the cue may be laid flat on the table bed and slid along the baize under a cushion to strike the cushion-ward side of the cue ball when it is frozen to the cushion (such a shot is not legal in pool or carom games under most rulesets). [3][4], The forerunner of the cue was the mace, an implement similar to a light-weight golf club, with a foot that was generally used to shove rather than strike the cue ball. The bulk of the weight of the cue is usually distributed in the cue butt portion. Practitioners of artistic billiards and artistic pool sometimes have twenty or more cues, each specifically tailored to a particular trick shot. Tips for break and jump cues are usually nickel radius or even flatter, and sometimes made of harder materials such as phenolic resin; the shots are forceful, and usually require less spin. Joints have different sizes as well as different male and female ends on the shaft and butts of the cues. This is not common and usually results from improper installation, misuse of tip tools, or high impact massé shots. Despite their names, the continually sloping European taper is found in most North American bar and house cues, and not all professional players prefer a straight pro taper on their custom, two-piece models. Good quality pool cues are customarily made from straight-grained hard rock maple wood, especially the shaft. A leather tip naturally compresses and hardens with subsequent shots. Although these lower the cost of the cues, they do not degrade the cues' effectiveness in game play. Often these are less affected by moisture and humidity than leather tips, tend less to bulge and mis-shapen, and are suitable substitutes for the average player.

A second type is the two-piece cue, divided in the middle for ease of transport, usually in a cue case or pouch. The butts of less expensive cues are usually spliced hardwood and a plastic covering while more high-end cues use solid rosewood or ebony.
