Got a young pool shark in the family? This McDermott K97C is a fantastic youth cue. It's shorter at 52 inches (132 cm), which is much easier for kids to handle than a full-size cue. The standard weight is around 18 oz, but it uses McDermott's adjustable weight bolt system so you can tweak it a bit. It features a traditional hardrock maple shaft with a 13mm leather tip and a pro taper for a smooth stroke. The butt is cherry-stained maple with an Irish linen wrap for a secure grip. The joint is 3/8”-10. It also comes with a decent 1x1 soft case for storage and transport. Perfect for kids about 11 and up, or even for adults playing in a cramped space with obstacles. McDermott is known for quality, so this isn't a toy—it's a real performance cue that helps young players develop proper technique. A great gift for a budding player!
