A cue for the four basic shots of billiards: soft, medium, hard, and break shot. In use, the present invention allows the player to shoot the cue on a straight line four to six inches through the cue ball by enhancing the player's physical feel and mental visualization of said straight line by aligning the player's index and thumb fingers of the stroking hand, into the groove corresponding to the desired basic soot of pool, the next two fingers are aligned on the flat surface between the above mentioned groove and the adjacent groove nearer the free end of the butt end portion of the cue, which aligns the pinky finger, to give the sensation of a straight line. The groove furthest from the free end of the butt end portion, corresponds to a soft shot, the adjacent groove, corresponds to a medium shot, the next adjacent groove, corresponds to a hard shot, and the next adjacent groove, corresponds to a break shot. An optional groove, nearest to the free end of the rear butt portion, can be added if the player desires to execute a power break/straight shot. The invention can be fitted to the player's hand size by varying the spacing between the grooves.
