Simply put in my opinion: Mooris will play as good as a Kamui once you break them in with a couple 3-4 hour sessions. A Kamui to me feels good right from the start. If I were to put a Moori on, I'd be sure to hit balls with it for a couple of sessions before I'd jump into a serious playing situation. With a Kamui, I can slap one on in the parking lot of a club and walk in and enter a tournament without a worry.

Timmy, I would have to take the Moori hands down. ...........................................................................................The closest tip to a Moori Medium on the market today is the Wizard Medium in my opinion, and this is based upon the installation of hundreds of each of these tips.

timmy, i would have to take the moori hands down. I have played with both tips, and have also installed both tips on my customers cues. I own and a pool hall, with a retail store, along with a cue repair section. I install more than 50 tips in any given month of year, and number of these are both moori and kamui tips.
First, there is no tip that compares to a moori tip in it's construction and how it machines. Moori tips are less likely to have delamination problems than any other tips made today, and this is do to how they are chemically treated, the layers are glued, and the layer thickness.
Kamui tips have twice the thickness of individual layers that moori tips have, in fact just look at these tips side by side with a magnifying glass. In my opinion there is no major difference between kamui tips and most layered tips that cost far less.

I think in the end timmy, when ever people use something to gage everything else by it obvious which tip sets the standard!!!!
take care timmy:smile:
why compare the second and third place tips??? I say you use the best tip out there and call it good...the triangle

you must be one of the fortunate ones, that hasn't had to throw away entire boxes of triangle tips to find a good one.
