Description
The 1066 Billiards Valour 066 is a 3/4 jointed ash snooker cue designed for players who prefer a lighter overall weight with a distinctly forward-balanced feel. Weighing 17.9oz with an 18.5″ balance point, this model combines responsive handling with a natural tendency to carry forward through the stroke, offering a different playing experience from heavier cues with similar balance characteristics.
At 58″ in length, the Valour 066 maintains traditional snooker cue proportions while offering a comfortable combination of reach and manoeuvrability. Its 9.5mm tip provides a familiar contact point for precise cue ball striking, while the 30.2mm butt diameter offers a slightly fuller grip. The contrast between its lighter weight and forward balance creates a cue that feels manageable in the hand while retaining a sense of momentum through the delivery.
Cue Features
Constructed from selected ash, the Valour 066 provides reliable feedback and a consistent response across a wide range of shots. Its individual 8-splice butt design adds a distinctive visual finish while preserving the traditional styling of the Valour collection. The 3/4 jointed construction maintains a strong, connected feel through the stroke and allows convenient transport and storage. A fitted butt-end thread provides compatibility with all 1066 Billiards extensions (sold separately).

Why Choose the Valour 066?
The Valour 066 is particularly appealing to players who want the characteristics of a forward-balanced snooker cue without the added weight of a heavier model. Its 17.9oz weight allows for responsive handling, while the 18.5″ balance point gives the cue a noticeable forward presence that can complement a smooth, flowing cue action.
The fuller 30.2mm butt provides a reassuring grip, balancing the relatively light overall weight with a more substantial feel in the cueing hand. Combined with its traditional 58″ length and individual 8-splice styling, the Valour 066 offers an appealing combination of responsiveness, forward balance and comfortable handling.
