Valhalla 100 Series Pool Cue Stick

After you're ready to graduate from the $50 sticks (many of which are still quite good) this is a good next step. I like the solid action of this cue. The default tip is quite good as well. I got the 21 oz version and it's perfect for me. Things I like: The glossy handle sticks to my skin a little so I get good contact with a very light grip The shaft is already sanded smooth so it slides in my fingers without needing powder or gloves Included tip is great Things I don't like: The mahogany finish is almost black even in normal pool room lighting. I have to take it out in direct sunlight to see any color at all and even then it's very dark The balance point is a little further back than I'd like.

This was an upgrade to a $50 beginner stick, and the difference is amazing. The $50 stick was a great upgrade from the bar cues, but this Valhalla stick blows that away. I'd say it's great for beginners starting to learn or people trying to improve their skills. It's well-weighted and balanced. It's made of wood which is much better than the cheap graphite sticks. The stick feels amazing and you can immediately recognize the quality as soon as you put it together. It's very attractive and gets compliments every time. If you're somebody who plays regularly and have been considering getting a "good stick", I'd say this is the best one based on quality and price. You could find a cheap graphite one for $30-$60, but if you want to really make a difference in your game and hone your skill, this is definitely worth the purchase.

Great quality stick. Really surprised by the tip. Shoots straight. Looks good. Has a great feel in your hand: smooth shaft. Great stick for the money.

Quality , its a very well made cue.

Excellent cue, I've owned the high end cues and this has the feel of one. Very balanced and comfortable to use. Highly recommend

This pool cue arrived in perfect condition, well packaged and protected. It is perfectly straight when screwed together, and the metal joint is a very high quality and very secure. The finish on the bottom colored part is truly beautiful. I bought the red color, which I thought would be very red but is in fact a very rich deep almost mahogany burgundy red. The color is richer and more beautiful than I thought it could be. And the glossy finish grips your hand very well on the bottom, while the upper part slides very easily over your fingers. The thin upper part of the cue is very smooth and slides easily in your hands and fingers. I can't imagine a better pool cue for the money.

It's a gorgeous cue stick and well worth the money spent~! It's a Viking cue stick, nuff said. Well made

I've played probably 4 or 500 games with it so far and I really like it. It's no frills but has a great feel. The joint is very good and gives a solid feel when put together. I do notice a slight difference between this and say a higher end meuci or other super premium cue, but most people really wouldn't. This cue was purchased to take out to bars or tournaments without the fear of damaging a more expensive one and I honestly have no complaints. I think for anyone outside of a professional player this is all you would ever need and I would absolutely buy it again if it were lost or stolen. It's a great cue.

Muy buen taco en cuanto a relación calidad-precio, funciona muy bien

A replacement for my original. Was not aware these were apparently being made overseas now but the quality of manufacture still very good. A slight difference in the grain - maybe not Maple from the Americas? Otherwise quite happy.

Perfect. My father loves it. He finally added me to his inheritance because of this pool cue.

I'd bought a second hand pool table recently and it came with some very tired pool cues. After hacking around with them for a few days it became obvious they needed replacing. I did a bit of research for 'best bang for buck' pool cues and this came up as a strong recommendation. It was a little more than I wanted to pay, but the quality of this cue means I do think it represents value for money. There's not a hint of an edge on the joins and the finish is fabulous. I would strongly recommend this cue

Cue works well but the shaft is not rigid. Easily bend the tip with a little side pressure causing a lot of deflection.
