Description
The 1066 Billiards Duke 073 is an extra-long 1-piece ash snooker cue designed for players who benefit from greater natural reach around the table. At 60″, it offers two inches of additional length over a conventional 58″ cue, making it particularly appealing to taller players or anyone who simply prefers the feel and coverage of a longer snooker cue.
With a 9.6mm tip and an 18.5oz weight, the Duke 073 maintains a controlled, well-supported feel despite its additional length. The 18″ balance point creates a distinctly forward profile that encourages a smooth, positive delivery through the cue ball, while the 30.3mm butt provides a fuller grip that complements the cue’s longer proportions.
Cue Features
Crafted from straight-grained ash, the Duke 073 delivers the direct feedback and consistent response expected from a traditional 1-piece snooker cue. Its fuller 30.3mm butt provides a substantial and comfortable hold, while the 60″ length gives players additional reach without needing to move immediately to an extension. The one-piece construction maintains an uninterrupted feel throughout the stroke, and a fitted butt-end thread provides compatibility with 1066 Billiards extensions (sold separately) when even greater reach is required.
