I’ll second Muellers! We do their house 1-piece cues and they’re VERY cost effective for our uses. They only sell them to commercial accounts, so you may need to message customer service for those rates and skus. We only have a couple casual tables, with players who aren’t too discerning on their cue preferences, and they work great for us.

Hi Stephen – there was a similar post yesterday in the forum and I shared some info. directly with the author. Since you also posted, I thought I’d share publicly this time.
As a former Union director who spent some time managing game rooms over the years and I don’t envy your struggle with pool cues. Not sure if you’re interested in on-piece or two piece cues, but Mueller’s has a great selection of 2-piece cues and many are customizable specifically for ferrule’s and tips. Moving to a more durable ferrule and tip certainly helps the cues last a bit longer and replacement tips are easier to install.
If you are looking for high quality cues that can last for a long time, take a look at the Lucky cues at https://www.muellers.com/Lucky-Pool-Cues.html. I’ve used them in the past and they hold up well. The Lucky cues offer lots of options and I like using the Elk Master leather pressed tips. Feel free to drop a line back or give a call if you want to talk more.

I wanted to see what others were using in their game room for pool cues. We had a local vendor that was supplying pool cues and we have most recently been purchasing from Amazon. Both of these have been a standard wooden cue. Our pool cues are not lasting long before they become damaged and no longer useable. They typically last for about 2 – 3 months before we are needing to make another purchase. Let me know what the good options are out there that can stand up to heavy usage.
