What is the best length for a cue stick? ›

The most common length of a pool cue is 57 inches, which corresponds to about 145 cm. This is the standard length used in most professional pool tournaments. However, if you have a small pool table or if you are not that tall, a shorter cue may fit better, such as a 52 inch (122 cm) or 48 inch (105 cm) cue.
