Abstract: A pool cue includes a hollow shaft arrangement having a first end and a second end. The shaft arrangement is formed with a bore extending throughout an entire length of the shaft arrangement between the first and second ends. A carrier for mounting the shaft arrangement thereon includes a central section disposed to be received in the bore. The central section has a first end disposed to be engaged against a first end of the shaft arrangement, and a second end provided with a threaded area disposed to extend beyond the second end of the shaft arrangement. The threaded area is connected to other pool cue structure, such as a joint collar or a shaft section, or both, disposed at the second end of the shaft arrangement.
