Cue Chalk

Cue chalk is used for obtaining the desired friction and minimizing the chance of a miscue during the game. It should be applied to the cue every other shot or so to get the most out of the cue.

As a result, spin is imparted to the cue ball when the tip of the cue tip does not strike the ball in its center, imparting spin to the cue ball.

Several experts blame kicks on the chalk, and there is a lot of work being done to be able to figure out why kicks occur.

The professional players use many brands of chalk-like Triangle, Master, and lately, Taom Chalk which doesn’t leave marks on the table and doesn’t kick.

Different brands have different qualities, which can impact play. The moisture in the air also affects chalk’s efficacy.

It’s generally thought that harder, drier compounds are better for snooker. You can use whatever Chalk you want, but it’s recommended that you chalk the cue as much as possible.
