Barracuda make high-grade ash two-piece cues, and the timber selection is the heart of the range.

High-grade ash means straighter, cleaner grain chosen from a larger batch — which gives you beautifully defined chevrons down the shaft to sight along, and a shaft that holds its line exceptionally well over years of play. The Gold Medal sits at the top of the range, with the Stealth and Challenge models offering the same quality of shaft in different butt finishes and styles.

These are cues for a player who has decided they are serious about the game and wants timber worth keeping. Two-piece construction throughout, so they travel easily to a club.
