52 Inch Short Pool Cues for Tight Spaces

52 inch pool cues are commonly used by adult players who need a shorter cue than the standard 58 inch length. These cues are ideal for game rooms where walls, furniture, or limited space make it difficult to use a full-length cue comfortably.

A 52 inch cue offers nearly the same reach and stroke feel as a full-size cue while providing extra room to play in tighter spaces. Many home game rooms and bar tables benefit from using slightly shorter cues like this.

Why Choose a 52 Inch Pool Cue

A 52 inch short pool cue is a practical solution for players who need slightly more room around the table. In many game rooms, walls or furniture can limit cue clearance, making a full 58 inch cue difficult to use comfortably.

This cue length provides nearly full-size playability while reducing the overall cue length enough to make play easier in tighter spaces.

Who Should Use a 52 Inch Pool Cue

  • Adult players in smaller game rooms
  • Home tables placed close to walls
  • Players who prefer a slightly shorter cue
  • Rooms where a full-length cue is difficult to use
