    Pool Dawg

    Great customer service. I was sent the wrong item by mistake. I called them up and they immediately shipped the correct product and provided for the return of the wrong purchase.

    First New Pool Cue

    I’m new at playing pool but I knew I’d like to learn more and right then I knew I should have my own personal pool pool cue. I discovered PoolDawg and their many products and had a peace within about their integrity and the craftsmanship of their products so I purchased an Athena ATH46 pool cue. It’s a lovely pool cue and my husband has said I’m already improving my game. I highly recommend PoolDawg and I will continue to order from them. Karen Martin

    Athena pool stick

    When we received it. The picture didn’t do it justice. My wife can hardly wait to shoot with it. She really likes it. The time it took to receive it was amazing. I won’t do business anywhere else from now on. Thank you extremely much poolDawg!

    Dragonfly Athena Que

    This is my very first me pool cue. Oh my gosh is it nice. I am impressed by how it shoots. So silky and straight. The pool cue is just Lovely. Prettier than the picture. I have told my friends about Pool Dwags. I got an extension with my Athena free, but I thought it was to make it a jumping stick! So I called Customer Service and explain to the lady the that the treads where course and I need fine threads to fit on the stick. So the kind lady sent me an another extension. So i called back and explained to another kind lady at Customer Service that that they had sent me the wrong part again. She took my number and wss going to check on this forther. I told my husband that they sent me the same one. He looked at it and SILLY it goes st the end of your pool cue and it’s not a jumping stick it an EXTENSION!!! To make your cue stick longer. So I called Customer Service back again and told the whole story to the lady. I told her to put in comments ” That is crazy lady didn’t know and jumping stick from an extension ” I would like to THANK the LADIES at the CUSTOMER SERVICE for putting up with me . Thank you Cindy Winter

    Athena cue

    In my experience, so far, I’m liking my new cue stick. I’m content with the weight and feel of it when shooting. We don’t have any retail locations close to check out cues in person. So, I was skeptical about purchasing a stick on line. My cue was packaged with the ultimate care and I’m happy with it so far. Hopefully, after a bit more practice with it, I will be fully comfortable with it. I would consider having purchasing from Pool Dawg in the future.

Weight & Balance

This cue is offered in WBACT, Yes. A lighter cue is easier to accelerate for a whippy, spin-friendly stroke; a heavier cue plants more solidly and drives the cue ball with less effort. Most players settle between 19 and 20 ounces.

This model takes a weight-bolt system, so the weight and balance point can be tuned after purchase. Adding weight toward the butt moves the balance rearward for a more planted feel; less weight shifts it forward for a livelier stroke. The balance point on a finished cue usually sits about 18 to 19 inches from the butt.

Questions about this cue

What joint does the Athena ATH46 Cue use?

It uses a 5/16X18 Piloted joint. That means any 5/16X18 Piloted shaft will thread straight onto this butt, so you can add a spare or upgrade later without changing cues. If you are matching a shaft you already own, check its pin against 5/16X18 Piloted before ordering — joints are not cross-compatible.

What shaft diameter is the Athena ATH46 Cue?

This cue ships with a 12.50mm shaft. Thinner shafts put more spin on the cue ball and feel crisper through the stroke; larger diameters feel fuller and are more forgiving on off-centre hits. Neither is better — it comes down to how you like the cue to hit.

Is this a carbon fiber or wood shaft cue?

The Athena ATH46 Cue comes with a Classic Wood shaft. Carbon fiber will not warp, ignores humidity and deflects less; quality maple gives the traditional feel a lot of players still prefer. Both play at a high level, so pick the one that matches how you want the cue to feel.

What is the Athena ATH46 Cue built for?

It is set up as a playing cue. Playing cues are balanced for control on shot-making, break cues are heavier with a harder tip for power transfer, and jump cues are short and light to get the cue ball airborne. Using the right one also protects your playing cue from break wear.

What kind of grip does it have?

The grip is linen wrap. Irish linen wicks sweat and stays tacky, leather is plush and premium, and a no-wrap finish is fast and needs no maintenance. If your hands run warm, linen is usually the safer pick.

Is Quarter King an authorized Athena dealer?

Yes. We are an authorized Athena dealer, so this cue is genuine and carries the full manufacturer warranty against warpage and defects in workmanship. Warranty claims go through us — you do not have to deal with the factory yourself.

How fast does it ship, and can I return it?

Shipping is free on orders over $98 in the contiguous US, $5.50 flat otherwise, and you get tracking as soon as it moves. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery on unchalked, unused product — contact us first for a return authorization so it is credited without delay.

Compatible Shafts

This cue uses a 5/16X18 Piloted joint, so these shafts thread straight onto it. Not sure? Send us the cue and we will confirm the fit before you buy.
