A billiard cue 10 comprises a handle section 12 and a cue tip section 14. This cue tip assembly comprises a ferrule 30, a cue tip insert 40 and a cue tip pad 50. The ferrule 30 and the tip 18 of the billiard cue are cooperatively constructed so that the ferrule 30 fits over and around the outer-most part 20 of the cue tip 18 and seats on an annular land 22 at the base of part 20. The cue tip insert 40 and the ferrule 30 are cooperatively constructed so that insert 40 can be releasably joined to ferrule 30. In this combination of the cue tip assembly 14 and the billiard cue shaft 13, a variety of cue tip pads can be alternately attached to the same shaft 13 (each unique in diameter and/or hardness so as to reduce or enhance cue ball deflection) simply by substituting one insert 40 for another.
