Crafted from selected ash, it offers the familiar proportions of a full-length snooker cue while providing a more refined grip for players who prefer less bulk in the hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt 58″ in length with a 9.5mm tip and an 18.4oz weight, the Duke 080 delivers a reassuring sense of stability without feeling excessively heavy. Its 17″ balance point creates a natural, well-balanced playing profile, while the slender 29.5mm butt distinguishes this cue from models with more substantial handles. This combination is particularly appealing to players who enjoy a traditional cue weight but prefer a slimmer grip for comfortable, controlled cue delivery.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCue Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade from straight-grained ash, the Duke 080 provides consistent feedback and the direct playing response associated with quality one-piece snooker cues. Its 29.5mm butt is notably slim, offering a narrower grip that may suit players with smaller hands or those who simply prefer a finer handle. The 18.4oz weight provides substance through the stroke, complementing the cue's relatively neutral balance for a steady, predictable feel. Traditional one-piece construction maintains an uninterrupted connection through the cue, while a fitted butt-end thread ensures compatibility with 1066 Billiards extensions (sold separately) whenever additional reach is required.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCue Specifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCue Type: 1-piece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShaft Material: Ash\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTip Size: 9.5mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength: 58″\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 18.4oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eButt Diameter: 29.5mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBalance Point: 17″\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eButt Extension Thread: Fitted\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhy Choose the Duke 080?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Duke 080 stands out for its combination of traditional 58″ length, comfortable 18.4oz weight and particularly slim 29.5mm butt.
