Practically every pool player has an opinion on the subject of what makes a good pool cue. Anyone who has played billiards long enough knows you can’t use a house pool stick very long. If you haven’t decided if pool is your game or not, you play with house cue sticks – if you can find one with a tip. If you do get pool fever you will quickly get to the point where you know you need consistency in the hit and feel of the cue stick, and that is when you know it’s time to invest in your sport.

When that time comes, you will find that there are many makers of pool sticks, but the odds are high that some of your pool pals are using a Meucci pool cue. The wide range of price and design make it easy to find the perfect model for your first Meucci.Meucci pool cues range in price from $150 to well over a thousand dollars. At about the $300 price point, your Meucci cue has most of the technical attributes as the higher priced models.

With technical specifications and playing characteristics being fairly constant above the $300 point, the increase in price reflects the artistic value of the design, and the quality and rarity of the material that are used in making the Meucci cue stick. Ebony, ivory, rare woods, turquoise are all employed to create pool cue works of art. This, combined with great playing characteristics, is why many players won’t part with their Meucci cue sticks and end up owning several.

A good choice for your first Meucci is the Sneaky Pete Meucci pool cue.The playability and design of the Meucci Sneaky Pete pool cue are excellent. Another fantastic selling point for this cue stick is that it looks just like the typical house cues found at pool halls and taverns – but it plays like a Meucci!

Although this may seem expensive at first, this isn’t a lot of money to spend on first-class sports equipment. This pool stick will give you years of excellent playing and hold most of its value when it’s time to move up to your next Meucci pool cue – if you can bring yourself to part with it. Meucci makes more pool cue models than you can shake a (pool) stick at, and there is a model suited perfectly to your current game, and the place you want to take your game to as you grow in this fantastic sport.

In case you’re wondering, I’m a Meucci pool cue fan. I own several now and I have my eye on a Special Edition that I just have to have. I’m just trying to figure out how to sell my wife on my investment strategy. As a famous witch (not my wife) once said, “Some things have to be done very delicately.”
