The feel and playability of a tip is very subjective. Ask 100 people and you'll probably get 100 different answers. With that said, after trying a slew of tips, I've settled on a Moori soft. My cue has a 11.75 tip diameter and this may affect tip performance. Surprisingly, I've had no mushrooming issues or glazing in almost a year of use. I almost never miscue since it holds chalk so well. My style of play is usually hitting the cue ball softly with pocket speed. Rarely do I hit the cue ball very hard. This may account for the lack of mushrooming. On the opposite end of the pole, I played with a Super Pro for a while and enjoyed playing with it. It feels a lot harder than the durometer hardness reported for this tip. I did have a problem once in a while with the cue ball directly on the cushion. Had to be very careful with the hit when the cue ball was in that position. In summary, all I can say is keep searching Pilgrim. Good luck in your quest for the perfect tip.
