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.

You want to keep up-to-date with a cue when you’re talking about the weight. The reason behind this is that the cue does all the work for you. You should go with a heavier cue than going with a lighter one. Some play with 17 oz. to 18 oz. for no reason at all. It just feels right in the hands of the player. You want enough wood in the cue for it to be stiff. The stiffer the cue is the better off it will be. Avoid the ones that move around and don’t stay firm in your hand.

Once you buy your own cue, don’t let other people borrow it. It only takes one play to wreak your cue. Purchase a cue with a good size tip. It is surrounded by brass. A dry cloth can be used to keep it polished. If you look around, you can get a cue at a really good price, so you don’t have to pay a lot of money for one.

They use the ivory balls in the championship games. Ivory balls are expensive, but the value of the play makes it a wise asset. The other kinds of balls are called composition balls. When you play with them your angle shot need to be wider. When you get use to playing with one kind of ball, it is hard to switch and play with another kind. This is because the hits and execution are done a certain way.

The fabric of the table is hard-wearing. It is material that is hard to cut with, with scissors and these tables are meant to last for years. Most tables are finished with this type of fabric. You have the napless tables, which is a cheaper fabric that composition balls are played on.

The cushions should be in excellent condition. This is the edge around the table where the ball springs back.

You have a few people that have unusual playing ability. This is where the know how to hit the ball in the right place so it goes into the side pocket all of the time. This is very rare. When you hit the ball you want it to spin. Now you know some of my billiard tips.
