Has anybody ever used a carom cue to play snooker with before?

[Dean_H]

Hello AZBilliards folk, I have been living in a Majority Snooker playing Country these last five years. Having a Carom Billiard table at home I did not feel the need to try Snooker until today, I was curious. One thing I noticed about the house cue I was playing with Is that the house cue seemed to have a conical taper and a small tip Diameter. Has anybody out there tried using a carom cue to play Snooker with? I am going to try using my longoni with the ( 11mm tip diameter ) next time I try to play snooker. I like 3C and Free Game Carom billiards the best, but it was fun to make balls on the snooker table.

Thanks,

Dean

hi,
i did for a short time, but i quickly bought an ash snooker cue , because to me a bigger cue with a smaller tip diameter is more confortable for snooker (mine is 9mm) .

I can’t play carom with a carom cue now
just my cuetec
I still would one day like to own one of those hanbat rainbow cues however

Since 1987 I've been playing ALL cue games with a 'Carom Cue'.

11mm would be too big for me. I have a 9.5mm on my snooker cue.
