Description
The Elite ELBT01 Big and Tall is a 62 inch playing cue made for taller players who want more length than a standard cue offers. The forearm is maple with four rosewood points surrounded by red inlays, and the butt sleeve is rosewood. There is no wrap on the handle.
A 13mm tip is mounted on an Ivorene-3 fiber linen ferrule, and the shaft is AAA grade Canadian hard rock maple. Shaft and butt join with a 5/16 x 18 pin, a common joint thread among playing cues. A black rubber bumper protects the butt end.
Extra length changes the feel of the stroke, so players used to a standard cue may want a short adjustment period. The weight can be changed with a weight bolt. No extension or joint protectors come with the cue, and a 1 year limited manufacturer warranty applies.

elite 62″ stick
Actually when I first started trying this cue stick I was ready to make match sticks of it; but, I kept trying to use it. now it is working great. I am doing better with this cue stick than the one I was using before I purchased the 62″.

This cue feel like plastic
This stick feel like plastic pipe, but same time I really know how the cueball and the object ball movie on the table. It functions simple way,. but it doesn’t work elegantly

several players in our league
several players in our league are using cue extensions for when they want to stretch for a shot. I don’t mind using the bridge , but I feel that I have better “feel” by stretching when it comes to cue ball control. My standard shooter has a 30” shaft with a 13mm tip. The elite 62” gives me an additional 3 inches of reach , without having to take the time to alter my regular stick. in addition the elite 62” is a great looking pool cue with a decent hit. nicely a good deal the price. matt glennon

Pleased
Honestly, asked for advice on a 32″ shaft fitting into the case and an answer was quick to follow. the carrying case is durable, convenient and seems good.

Had it for 12 years
This is a fantastic cue stick for those that need the extra length. For competitive players you will need to trim down the shaft quite a bit and add a different tip, but for the price of this cue stick you will still be saving hundreds if not thousands compared to a custom made 62 inch cue. There is a company called Schmelke that makes affordable 62 inch custom cues. I tried one and I like the elite better. To me it handles lighter than 19 oz which is a plus. I have been shooting with this pool cue for 12 years now. For those that want to upgrade shafts, Mcdermott and Jacoby offer 31 inch high performance shafts.

Nice stick stick and carry
Lovely cue stick and carry bag. I like the extra length (I’m 6′ 4}. It is super straight and well crafted with “sneaky Pete” appears {looks like a common pool hall or bar house stick). I’m glad I bought it.

Just about the best stick i’ve ever owned
I must admit, it has good balance for just about any kind of shot, cut combo or bank shots.

Pool stick
I must admit, truly good looking. Tip plays nicely. Stick vibrates some on more aggressive shots.

I like the quality of
I like the construction of the cue. I’m having a little bit of a hard time transitioning to the extra length. I’m 6’4″ and am currently using a 57″ sneaky pete ultra light 16oz. The pool cue seems absolutely fine and effectively made. It’s me that has to elevate performance levels.

Finally!
I’m 6’11 and I’ve been playing with a cuetec + smart extension for over a decade and I’m thrilled I finally found a long cue that’s not a fortune. I got this cue stick recently and I love it. It’s a pretty basic pool cue but 4 inches longer than normal. It’s weight and build are nice and for a simple stick it seems pretty nice. I had to tighten the weight bolt in mine because it was a little loose and rattled but it took 5 seconds to pop off the plug and tighten it with an allen wrench. If you’re a tall person and need a long cue, this seems to be the superior option unless you want to pay to have one custom made. Viking wanted an extra 200 to make a cue this length on top of their normal price and I just don’t see how it’d be any better than this one.

Cool stick
great pool cue. Couldn’t tell from the pics, but it has red and black veneers on the points which look really good. Just be warned: If you have tall joint covers, they won’t fit in the case.

appears nice, all that I
seems good, all that I hoped for, plays lovely with tiger everest tip, shaft was straight and stick rolls evenly on pool table. I was able to add weight with an action weight bolt and the process was simple. Thanks pooldawg.

The cue is now working
The cue is now working fine.. Third times a charm, yes I had to send my cue back twice, but the wait is great.

Outstanding solution for players with long wing spans
This pool cue solved a issue for me. I’m only 6-1, and according to my research a 62-inch cue is only needed for player 6-5 or above. All I know is that with a six-inch bridge length and my wing span, with my hand dropped straight down I was near the end of a standard 58-inch cue stick. The Elite stick allows me to get my grip hand closer to the cue’s balancing. Cue stick still weighs a standard 19 oz., is beautifully balanced and has a tasteful, Sneaky Pete look. They could have put a better tip on it, but if you buy new I believe you have the option to upgrade, which I would endorse. Overall, I’m very pleased with this cue.

Highly vouch for this for a tall players

6’2″or taller must have this Cue.
The cue stick is great, I can stretch out with greater balance which allows me to push through the stick ball. Thanks for reducing the weight to 18 oz ounces.

Stop shopping ! This is the Place.
O man ! I found PoolDawg by “Divine” intervention ! I swear. I wanted to get my son a sneaky Pete like mine. Mine was made by a famous NW artist named De Boise and by request I wanted a 60″ 17oz. My son loved it when he was a kid. Years passed and he wanted to get back in the game. He stands 6’6″, so I went on the hunt for a long Pete. I stumbled across PoolDawg and your 62″ Pete was a “had to get” ! So I called and got you folks to reduce it to 17oz. I’m getting 1 for myself. Thanks, Mac

PoolDawg did fine. I received
PoolDawg did fine. I received my cue in a timely manner. The cue is dead straight and the finish would be hard to beat. As far as balance and weight go it’s adjustable. The butt I have is bored quite deep and uses Action weight bolts. You could move the weight in the bore for balance and/or change the weight. I’m using mine as delivered and like it.

Only one like it!
This is the only production stick I found over 60″. It’s properly made, and has become my primary cue. I call the shaft taper halfway between “pro” (straight) and conical. Shaft is 1-piece maple, not claimed to be LD. Everything is tight, straight, and nicely finished. Weight was 17 3/4 oz on my scale (with no weight bolt). The carrying case is basic. Butt wouldn’t fit with a joint protector on it (same as my Instroke 1×1). I’d like to be able to get the cue only, or with a choice of a few cases. The Action ACSC03 soft carrying case is a nice alternative, and there are others that work with 31″ butt and shaft. I plan to buy an extra 31″ shaft when they are in stock.
