Yes seems like years ago all the snooker players that went to 9 ball were all using their snooker cue however i reckon that wouldnt happen anymore. Im going to play chinese 8 ball nextime with a american cue just to see how i find it compared to the snooker cue i usually use.

you would want 13mm as a start and as you get better, you move to smaller diameter tips for nore cue control, spin/english. look at how many pros use predator z shaft or cf (11.XX). buy a 13mm shaft and a snooker cue to test things out.

I use a players rengas cue with a 11.75mm tip and I can play competivly on a british table but that is all I ever have used

I find as a beginner using a smaller size tip like snooker cue gives more precision but its harder to give pool cue ball enough spin

What will my cue tip look like when it needs replacing?

Ronnie Osullivan uses his snooker cue when playing American pool.

So sir in a bar table is the 8ball game so is it fine to use the American cues

When I played league pool back in the early 90s I always used a single piece snooker cue and rarely lost 🤷🏻‍♂️
