I have some billiard tips that I’d like to share with you. Billiards is a game of diligence and to do well in the game you have to have the right tools. It is recommended that you obtain your own cue as having one can be somewhat of a luxury.

A man by the name of Willie Smith set the trends for the heavier cues tips with a brass metal covering. That cue weights around 18 oz. The normal cue weights around 15 oz. to 16 oz. The length is about 4 feet 8 to 9 inches. Some go longer like 4 feet 10 inches weighting 17 oz, but the size and weight of the cue is strictly a personal taste.

If you are new to the game, stick to the regular size of a cue, because you want the cue to work for you, not against you. Heavier cues are better than lighter ones. The most popular weight of a cue is around 17 oz. to 18 oz. The specks of the cue are in the person’s personal taste of what feels right for them. The more wood the better the cue will be. You want it to be stiff. Don’t get a cue that moves from one point to another. Those usually don’t stay in your hand very well.

Now that you own your own cue, never let anyone borrow it. One wrong move on their part can damage your cue. Buy a cue with a good size tip. The tips are enclosed with brass. You use a dry fabric to keep it polished. Shop around because you can get some at great prices.

Ivory balls are the best to use and are used in championship games. They can be expensive, but the investment is well worth it. When you play with composition balls the angle to the shot needs to be wider. Once you begin to get serious about your game, it is hard to transfer playing from the ivory balls to the composition balls. You get use to shots being a certain way with the ways the ball is made.

The cloth of the table is indestructible. It is hard to cut it with a regular knife and it is very hard-wearing. Lots of tables are covered with this kind of cloth. Composition balls are played on napless cloths, which aren’t that long lasting.

The cushions should be in exceptional shape. This is the border around the table where the ball rebounds.

You do have players that have a natural ability to play the game. They can hit the ball in the right place at the right time. Players like this are one in a million. When you strike the ball you want it to spin. Those are just a few of my billiard tips.
