I've mentioned in few threads that I'm coming back to pool after many years and getting a decent cue. I'm trying to figure out a few things about tip care.
I bought a McDermott GS-06, btw. It's on order and will come in about a week. I watched a video on how to use a 5-in-1 tips tool, so I got one. It looks simple enough to use...on the video, anyway. It makes sense that tip care is so important.
Something tells me this might be a hotly debated topic, but I'm wondering also about what tip diameter I should use. I have a feeling that everyone has their preference. Am I right? I figured I'd go with nickel size simply because I figure I could use a larger hitting surface in the beginning. Am I seeing this right, or is there a reason why dime size might be better for a bad beginner?
I bought the Jim Rempe training ball so I can learn a quicker how to correct mistakes. And for those who helped me with earlier question, I did buy a glove for my right hand. I have a good feeling that it will help with my bridging issues.
