"Hi, my name is Joe, and I'm at Break Time Billiards, in Wilmington, North Carolina. Today, we're going to talk about cue reviews, basically, the different kinds of cues that there are. Most people when they take up the game of pool, they're not going to have their own pool cue, so they're going to go to the rack on the wall, and they're going to take a regular one piece stick, that the house owner is going to provide. These sticks work great. The only thing that's bad about them is, is that they're long, they're bulky, so they don't travel very well, so hence, came up the two piece pool cue. It breaks down into two pieces. It goes into a case, so it's very easy to carry, from one place to another. Now, you have some different kinds of two piece cues. This one is a regular two piece cue. It was handmade, and it is no different than a manufactured cue, other than the fact, that it is made one at a time, as opposed to a lot. This cue over here, is called a break jump cue. The reason why it's called that, is that it comes apart into a jump cue, and when you put it back together, it is now set for a break cue. Now basically, those are the three types of cues that you've got. You can buy a manufactured cue or you can buy a individually made cue. They vary in prices, and that's strictly up to you, as to what kind you want to get, how it looks, and how much money you want to spend."
