Once you have read the article on How to Grip the Pool Cue, you may be wondering Where to Grip the Pool Cue.
The answer to this question will indeed be different for everyone and will also depend on the length of cue you play with. The key is to find the pool cue balance point so that you know where to grip it.
To find the balance point, take your index finger and balance the cue stick on it so that it teeters on its own. Once it is balanced, take a mental note of the point on the cue stick where your finger was holding it and use this as your balance point or reference point. In general, but depending on how tall you are, you should grip the cue at least six inches back from the balance point towards butt end of the cue stick. Shorter players should place their grip hand slightly closer to the balance point we found earlier, while taller players should put their gripping hand a greater distance away from the balance point.
