Why Some Cues Are 'Laminated'
Laminated cues are made by bonding layers of wood or composite materials together to create a stronger, more durable shaft. This process helps minimize the risk of warping over time and offers more consistency in performance. Laminated cues are particularly popular in areas with high humidity or temperature fluctuations, as they maintain their straightness and stability better than solid wood cues. While they may not have the same traditional aesthetic as solid wood cues, laminated cues are reliable, resilient, and provide excellent value for players seeking longevity and performance consistency.
