The Sleeve

(31 customer reviews)

Original price was: $29.95.Current price is: $17.97.

While The Sleeve has been designed to replace the Billiard Glove, it is a valuable tool for the difficult shot;  It can be Placed On Top of the Pocket or Metal Around the Pocket, Masse, Jump, or every shot.

The Sleeve has been precision engineered to achieve the least static and dynamic frictional coefficients against hardwood cue shafts. With the two different size bands included, it is also adjustable to accommodate a range of shaft diameters 12 mm and larger as well as various shaft tapers.

For Best Results:

  1. Before use, clean your shaft with Billiard Engineering’s QuicSlick™ Shaft Maintenance System or have your cue shaft professionally cleaned.  Nothing will slide well on dirt and grime.
  2. Best with 12 mm diameter ferrule and larger.
  3. To maintain the elasticity of the silicone bands, store the Sleeve in your bag with an inserted ½ inch dowel.  This will also help keep the inside clean as well.
  4. Practice!  It may take a couple of days to get used to.

    Because I live in Darwin Northern Territory Australia it turned out to be a very expensive item to buy because of postage

    Takes a little bit to get used to but it really helps with the clammy hand problem.

    Item was as described and arrived quickly. Despite some online comments, I found it quite easy to assemble and use. The reason for the middling numerical review is that I don’t think I’ll use it, or at least not much. Its diameter is uncomfortable in my hand and distracting as a result. Not a product issue. It works as advertised.

    I saw immediate results on the accuracy of my shots!

    It eliminated several variables/ inconsistencies from my aiming, and encouraged and promoted better follow through. This freed me up to focus on other things such as; staying down on the shot, keeping my shooting elbow perpindicular to the floor etc.,

    I Love It!

    I am pleased with my two purchasing experiences of The Sleeve from Billiards Engineering. Also, my pool playing experience with The Sleeve is that it facilitates making a smooth and stable stroke. I have been using The Sleeve for 32 months and just purchased another for my wife who enjoys how it helps her pool stroke.

    The sleeve comes apart very easily it needs to be more secure, the white plastic should not come off so much.
