Description
This Action Starter cue is a black-stained playing cue with a black composite collar, a black and white nylon wrap, and a black butt plate carrying a silver Action logo. The forearm and butt sleeve are black-stained maple, and an Action plug bumper protects the butt.
The shaft is 29 inch hard rock maple with a 10 to 12 inch pro taper, tipped with a 13mm leather tip over a 1 inch fiber linen ferrule. A 5/16×18 pin joins shaft and butt, and the cue is offered in 18, 19, 20 and 21 oz with a weight bolt for changing the weight.
As a starter cue it suits newer players. A 5/16×18 pin is one of the most common joint sizes, and a limited Action warranty applies. An extension, case and joint protectors are not supplied.

Great for begginers
It feels really superb in your hands. I like the wood-to-wood connection. Since I am an amateur I preferred this over a similar one because I had the option to change the weight later if I need it. As a beginner who knows the basics I didn’t want to go with a cue which aims solely beginners so I got this one and I’m super happy with it.

Heavier weight for breaking
Thus far it seems and weighs terrific plus the Tiger Emerald medium tip appears to be the correct choice but haven’t had a chance to use it. League starts soon so this pool cue stick will be an asset to my game!

Great first pool cue
I have to say, i’ve had my Action STR09 for a few weeks now and I’ve been playing a lot with it. It is my first stick and I am more than satisfied with it! I don’t own a table so I never really justified buying an expensive cue but when I found this inexpensive sharp looking cue I pretty much had to order it. Looks wonderful feels outstanding in your hands it’s lovely and straight the joints rest together solid and flush… no complaints here! And to much dismay of those who initially teased me (all in satisfactory fun) at the bar yes having my own pool cue has ‘made me better’. They’re not laughing now when I mop the floor with them and their banana shaped mushroom tipped house cues 😉

Outstanding cue for the price point
In my experience, originally ordered the Pooldawg cue because it stated it came with an Irish linen wrap. I wanted to match the red Pooldawg logo. I ordered it and when it arrived, no wrap. Michelle explained what the confusion was. This cue was a substitute for the Pooldawg cue stick. She offered to replace it with this cue stick even though it had been engraved. I decided to keep it and ordered this one as properly. As you can see…this was the idea I had for the Pooldawg cue stick. Maybe you guys can follow my lead. Would be a wonderful idea for a new Dawgs stick. 😉

Felt much more comfortable in
Felt much more comfortable in my hands than the cues I usually borrow at the pool hall. The weight is fairly satisfying.

Fantastic affordable cue for beginners
In my experience, was a casual player before joining a pool team. Needed my own pool cue but did not want to break the bank. Found this cue, the value was right even after a tip upgrade and choosing. Have shot quite a few games since getting it, and am very satisfied with how it feels in my hands and my game has felt like it has improved since getting it (likely something to do with how it is your own cue and not the bar or borrowed cue + developing fundamentals/skills). All the more experienced players around me have agreed (and approved!) that for the value and how the stick looks and feels, it is a excellent purchase for any beginner.
