How long is a billiard Stick?

Question

What is the proper length of billiard Stick?

Answer 1

Due to armspan being roughly the same as your height a good rule of thumb is chin height. With a head of a further foot a 58 inch cue would suit a man of 5'10", which is an average height and so would suit most people and is therefor the standard size. Anyone much taller, as in a good bit over 6 feet tall, would be a bit squashed up in their bridge and stance with this length cue and would probably feel more comfortable with a longer cue.

Answer 2

57 in is about standard

Answer 3

Answer 4

58" is the standard give or take an inch depending on the manufacturer.
