Cue for sweaty hands?

I was born with hyperhidrosis a condition where a person sweats alot. I have them in my hands and I find as the game progresses i lose accuracy in my stroke because the butt of the cue gets slippery.

I was wondering what kind of cue anyone could recommend me?

I've been looking at Lucasi Hybrid, Predator Sport Cue, because of the rubberized grips.

I use to own a cue with irish linen, leather, these were no good for me.

Is there anyone else here that has experienced extremely sweaty palms? Please tell me your story.

Have you tried drysol on your hands?
I agree with the wrapless idea too...
 
How about one of those roll up rubber things that were popular 4 or 5 years ago? I cut a wrap channel deeper to match on a guys break cue and installed one. That thing had alot of grip.

Being an exbowler i would also suggest a rosin ball.

Wow thanks guys for the replies!

-i've tried using wrapless but my hands sweat ALOT pretty much anytime im awake and using house cues in pool halls are a disaster.

- i have used many types of medication for the hyperhidrosis on my hands, drysol was one but the effect wouldn't last very long

-I will ask the billiards store about getting cork wrap, I have a cork board and it is very grippy

- the rosin ball sounds like a good idea, but i was wondering what kind of powder is in them? I've tried using baby powder but it doesnt on my hands very long, and is quite tedious to use between shots.

Thanks for the replies guys this has helped me out alot. Been looking to get a new cue since my other one was stolen, my car was broken into.

So should i be looking into a wrapless cue? and just putting my own desired wrap onto it?
 
It would be easier to install a cork wrap on a cue that already has a wrap groove cut..
 
Your best option is to use gloves. One with the satin/silk type for your bridge hand and another for the handle hand.
That is my take on it.
