Bob Ogburn might’ve been the tallest. Bernie Mikkelsen was 6-5….with long arms….he could pick a ball from a GC from the other side of a side pocket.
I’m only six feet but with a 6-3 wing span….I play with 57 inch cues….I’ve always wondered why more short guys don’t use long cues…..tall guys don’t need them.

It was fun watching Bernie play as well and cutting a ball on the blue spot into a side pocket from the brown spot.

I was a golfer before I was a pool player…..use the right club for the shot….my 57 inch cue hits stronger than longer ones and I still got three inches behind my right hand.
I feel the cue should accommodate the cue ball….it’s up to me to make the adjustments.

If you have a 6'3 wingspan and your back hand is three inches from the end of a 57" cue then you must A) have an extremely short bridge B) have the arm placement of Oliver Ortmann C) the stance of Minnesota Fats or D) all the above
