Somkiat Kulawattanaporn, was a competitive snooker player in Thailand with an obsession for wood crafts and making his own cues. Fondly known as “O”, he made his passion his profession in the “Minburi” province in Bangkok, and O’MIN Cues was born. Not long after, the praise for his craftsmanship spread far and wide, and O’MIN cues reached the hands of Thai professional snooker players.  

Presenting the O’MIN Hunter, one of the best cues ever made. Perfectly designed from tip to butt, each cue is built to order and is refined by the Maestro “O” himself. O’MIN's Hunter model stands as his signature creation among a portfolio of over ten unique designs. It signifies his commitment to excellence, personally overseeing the selection, testing, and guaranteeing the playability of each Hunter cue.

The cue shaft is made from silky smooth AAA grade ash wood that glides through your hand for a smooth cue action. Every piece of ash wood selected passes the quality checks of over 10 professional cue makers to commence the process. With perfect grains and chevrons, it provides the best sighting when down on a shot, making it easier to aim and pot balls.

The cue is exquisitely hand spliced 12 times with a combination of Rare Genuine Rosewood, Bird’s Eye Maple and Black Ebony. While the term Rosewood is common in the modern day, True Rosewood is rare, expensive and difficult to acquire. O’MIN has very limited stock of this rare wood, and once this stock is gone, it's gone. A thin layer of resin coats the wood splices to ensure that the cue butt is protected and maintains its shine and performance through years of rigorous use.

The one-piece construction of the cue gives a player the ultimate feel for the shot compared to cues with joints. These limited-edition cues are hand-fitted with an O’MIN professional medium 9.75mm tip, ideal for precision cue ball control in Snooker.

An O’MIN Hunter is not just your next cue, it’s your cue for the rest of your playing days. While many players aspire to own a Hunter cue, its exclusivity often places it beyond reach for most. Meticulous craftsmanship and an unmatched ball-striking experience make it the pinnacle of O’MIN's artistry and a coveted possession for professionals, serious amateurs, and collectors.
