Players Cues

Players Pool Cues

Players has built its name on one idea: a cue that plays honestly without costing a month's wages. Every cue in this collection uses hard rock maple, a 13 mm Le Pro leather tip and the industry-standard 5/16x18 joint — the same fundamentals found on cues costing several times as much.

What's in the range

One-piece house cues — the cheapest way to put cues on a table, for game rooms, bars and basements where cues take a beating and eventually get replaced rather than repaired.

The C-800 series — four-point wrapless cues in crimson, grey, natural and diamond inlay patterns. This is the usual first “real” cue: a proper two-piece with a straight maple shaft and a joint that accepts aftermarket shafts later.

The C-900 series — birdseye maple forearms with Irish linen wraps in blue, crimson, nutmeg and purple. The look and feel of a custom cue at production prices.

Shorty cues in 48" and 52" — graffiti, camo and cat graphics, genuinely built for younger players rather than cut down from adult stock.

Which one to pick

Wrapless cues feel firmer in the hand and stay clean; Irish linen absorbs sweat and suits longer sessions. Weights across the range run 18–21 oz, and because nearly every Players cue uses the 5/16x18 joint, a low-deflection shaft can be added later without replacing the whole cue.
