Just getting used to it. Never had a snooker cue before, but like it so far!
 
nice looking cue! i have a mastercue as well, a lower end model, but 1/2 jointed. plays very well for the money, I was very pleased when I received mine.
 
Nice!

So what differences have you noticed so far playing with the snooker cue vs. your pool cue?
 
Actually, I don't really know the differences. The tip is much smaller and the shaft is narrower and the taper seems different. I am just learning snooker, but it seems to be easier for me to pot balls if I shoot very lightly (not that I pot many balls!) and this cue seems to be "made" for that. The journey of learning snooker is interesting. I find it a very difficult game, but I am really liking the game. Some day I will make double digits!
 
Did you find it locally or did you have to source it from England? I've wanted to experiment with a snooker cue, but shipping charges from Europe scare me.
 
the mastercues are made in thailand....you can get them from european/UK dealers, but the shipping is way pricey. i don't know of any mastercue dealers in the US. oddly enough, getting it shipped from Asia is a heck of a lot cheaper. you can order from mastercue direct, but it's a bit frustrating. their english isn't great and they sometimes take a while to respond.
 
I ordered mine from Stu Green at Green Baize in Great Britain. For the cue, an extension and an aluminum case the shipping was 29.99 British Pounds.
